  1. my vote for worst game ever by Stanley+Feinbaum · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Quake. In 1996, very few people could afford the pentium required to play this game. Yet ID software insisted on releasing a game with what was then ABSURDLY high requirements. I remember I bought a 486 in 1995 and was dumbfounded when a year later games were being released that couldn't run on it.

    Duke Nukem 3d, on the other hand, ran great on my 486, and I played it instead of that badly programmed mess called quake (don't get me started on the music either!)

  2. Re:Most Politically Incorrect == Worst? by Zeinfeld · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    In this game, the player took control of a naked General George Custer, who had to navigate a battlefield to have sex with an Indian maiden who was tied to a post. Although Mystique claimed the sex was just a consensual bondage escapade and not rape, Native American groups as well as the National Organization for Women believed the game promoted sexual violence and staged national protests against it.

    Letsee, offend native Americans - check, offend women - check, offend Custer relatives check.

    Any chance we will find out that it was written by friends of Trent Lott?

    If Custer was alive he would have called out the writers to a duel and shot them stone dead. It is not therefore a matter of 'political correctness' or any newfangled strange fad, unless what you mean by 'political correctness' is behaving in a way that would be considered civilized by any organism higher in the evolutionary scale than plankton.

  3. now my artical by Vodak · · Score: 2, Flamebait

    I found this article the dumbest thing ever written to create web content. The people who came up with the article should be beaten with canes. Sure the games they complained about were bad, but damn their arguments for the thing sounded like they came from a 13 year old. By placing a controller into the list of worst games made any merit to the article null and void. I believe that I am now a dumber human being by reading this.
