Top 5 Of The Worst Video Games Based On Movies

0
Let’s face it when it comes to big blockbuster movies being released on video game consoles or PC do you really go out of your way to play or purchase them? Most of these licensed games turn out to be horrible because of little time the developer has to work on these games. Usually games are releasing either slightly before or after the movie release and frankly they just plain suck ass! Here is my list of the Top 5 of the worst video games based on movies   #5- Ghostbusters 2016 It breaks my heart as a die hard fan of the Ghostbusters franchise that they made this game and completely butchered it. This game was rated worst game of 2016 and frankly one of the worst games I have ever played.   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLkNFCk9VR4[/embedyt]   #4- Street Fighter The Movie Video Game Yes you read that correctly. They actually made this game and it was a load of hot garbage. Released back in 95,  Capcom and Incredible Technologies thought this game would do well….. yeah sorry I don’t think so. I guess the upside to this game is we got to play as JCVD!   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgv25Tql3RY[/embedyt]   #3- Jaws( NES) Thank you LJN, you once again made one of my lists as the worst game creators of all time!. Jaws for the NES has you swimming and collecting shells and then randomly Jaws will appear and you get your shot at taking him down. I loved the movie and was hoping for something better in the video game but nope! Also later on Jaws: Unleashed was released where you actually played as Jaws but that was also a piece of garbage.   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qh0SC-bVKGc[/embedyt]   #2- E.T The Extra Terrestrial We all knew this game would be on the list. Yes I was a big E.T fan growing up when I was old enough to watch the movie and when I was able to play this  game on my neighbors Atari I thought it was a piece of crap then and it’s even worse now!   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bT36JSnMGGo[/embedyt]   #1- Friday The 13th(NES) If Jason doesn’t kill you the horrible music will. To this day that music is embedded into my head and I can’t get it out. The game is horrible on so many levels and how is Jason the killer in this game when he wasn’t even the killer in the first movie.   [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yshLwwh_r6s[/embedyt]     Cheers folks!

    I am sorry, but “E.T. The Extra Terrestrial” should be in the #1 spot, if you had played it — which I did on the Atari 2600 in 1986 after buying it at a Toys “R” Us and then returning it a few days later — then you would have put it where it belongs!

      I did play it and for sure this is one of the worst games I have played ever but I had to put it on the number 2 spot because I just can’t get the bloody Friday the 13th game song loop out of my head to this day!

        “Friday the 13th” wasn’t perfect, but just because you’ve got an earworm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earworm), does not make it #1…remember “E.T. The Extra Terrestrial” ended up in a landfill, “Friday the 13th” did not, so that should tell you exactly which game is #1 for the worst of all time!

          I think every game on my list deserves to be tossed into a landfill! Which titles would you place on your list?

          • mlauzon says:

            Well, you already know what the #1 is, so that’s not going to change.

            I’d have to think about 2 – 5, because it’s been so long. Give me a day or 2, and I’ll have an answer for you.
