As we look back fondly on the year 1991, remembering classics like Sid Meier's Civilization and Sonic the Hedgehog we think it's only right to remind you of the absolute trash we also experienced that year. So from Alien Storm to Super R Type here are the 10 Worst Games Of 1991!

Hell even the Genesis version, which was a bad port, was still enjoyable to an extent. I know I had fun playing it back in the day (beat'em ups were probably my favorite as a kid), and I absolutely loved the whole alien ghost-buster premise and always wanted them to do sequels to it! I honestly still think it'd make for a great game to make a modern-day re-make of (not a remaster). Just think, a fun game with a unique somewhat dark sense of humor featuring a ghostbuster-like team (with a robot!) facing down the aliens menace, and saving the world. While it not exactly be the most recognizable franchise, not by a long-shot lol, nor was it that successful originally, I still think the concept has the potential to be a big hit. Hell, it doesn't even need to be a sequel or remake or have anything to do with series, just give a great modern game with a similar premise and I'd still be super happy!

At some point soon you really, really need to realise that the "7 professional reviews" formula absolutely doesn't work when looking at this era. Writers treated the rating scale very differently, most games didn't get column space at all, and of those that did, many reviews won't have made it to online aggregators. These lists are basically just objectively wrong.

Aww, I'm sad to see Lagoon on the list (although admittedly not completely surprised). Nasir's attack length was horribly short and the attack only registered successfully on a few precious pixels at a specific point in the attack animation, so every fight felt like a risky challenge. And some levels were pure mazes. But that said, I liked the game. The music was great, especially the epic title music. And when the same title music kicked in during the final battle, ohh, goosebumps!

It also had very favorable reviews and the main criticism were the slow downs. But the graphics and enemy designs were incredible and it was absolutely playable. I was a seven year old kid when I first played it and if I could handle the controls, an experienced player shouldn't have that much of a problem.

The gameplay however I can agree was a bit unforgiving, but supposedly the Sharp PC was better in that regard.

@Grima the Fell Dragon if you suffer from that, I'm sorry and understand why that would be a problem. Ive never experienced it personally. As a shooter though, it's objectively a well made game imo.

Nice list, but why just the consoles & PC games. There was still quite a bit of crap floating around on the 8 bit & 16 bit home micros that was possibly far worse than some of these games. Cisco Heat on C64 for example.

Me too. I can understand Americans referring to it as "Genesis" (for obvious reasons) but the last time I checked Triple Jump appeared to be British, unless the channel is trying to suck up to an American audience. Then again, Ashton referred to the ZX Spectrum as "Zee Ex Spectrum" in a video not too long ago and got picked up on it in the comments so this *might* be an attempt at trolling her fellow countrymen (and women...)

Now I know you have certain things you have to follow but I found games that are WAY WAY worse than some of the games that are in this list. Here's some fine examples: Fantasia Action 52 Darkman NES Beast Wrestler Bill and Ted NES Legend of Success Joe (worst NEO GEO game ever made) Jewel Master King of Kings (unlicensed NES) Bart vs the space mutants and Bart vs the World Total Recall NES

There's only like five or six truly awful games in the franchise. Especially if you don't consider the games that never got an official release outside Japan. Saga was bad, a handful of game boy/game boy advance games and that one PlayStation game. The rest were at least decent or most were good.
