I think half the reason Biomutant failed is because the name is awful and doesn't seem to fit it at all.

I think Little Goody Two Shoes is a lousy name, but it seems like a cool lifestyle sim with a dark bent to it. Unfortunately the last witch hour I did was pissing me off so I needed a break from it last time I played it. I would have never checked it out or looked into it if I didn't watch a youtube review about it though.

Infinite Undiscovery

Also, basically every Kingdom hearts name. 365/2 Days or w/e. No, I don't care if it maybe makes sense in the games.

That's at least supposed to be short for Wetwork. So it makes sense for the game itself.

Shadow of War

Sequel to the incredibly successful Shadow of Mordor, but based on just the name you'd have no idea what the game even was cause the title is so incredibly generic.

^it's funny because the DS had a lot of games named "Touch" in Japan

For instance, Kirby Canvas Curse is called "Touch! Kirby"

Triangle Strategy is such an awful name.

Project Triangle Strategy, though?

Great name. Should have stuck with it.

ah, the glory days when Ninty was actually trying to promote 'naughty' games

This reminds me of a review I read for a cyberpunk anime series & game titled "Download"

The name makes it nigh impossible to find via web search

ah, here it is

http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/download/

Another reason for its continued obscurity today is probably the in-retrospect unfortunate choice of name. Although Download might have been a cool name back in 1990, time has not been gentle on this title: it is very inconvenient to try to search the internet for Download PC Engine, or, even worse, Download anime. The same goes for searching for information on Japanese webpages, since the Japanese spelling of the series title () is also the Japanese word used to prompt a file download.

And title that fucks it up when I'm trying to organize/alphabetized them on my shelf. Maybe not the worst titles, but it pisses me off.

Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider come to mind.

If we're just talking straight titles, then Square takes the cake. Triangle Strategy, 358/2 Days... Everyone just wait for Final Fantasy VII Re:Make part 4 Intermediary Interlude - Serendipitous Excellivus - Aerith Aeternal
