The BEST TERRIBLE Games I've EVER PLAYED

[@DerivitivFilms]

I've never heard anyone say a bad thing about A Hat In Time

[@RNGGamerYT]

I've heard so many bad things..... it has about a 75 or so on Metacritic. I think that's pretty low, and it deserves better.

[@B33FY2011]

I honestly couldn't get into A Hat in Time at all.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@B33FY2011 a lot of people couldn't!

[@ianwood6438]

It’s awesome on ps5 4k 60fps I believe

[@argylega]

I tried it just a few months ago and I did not like it at all. I'd say New Super Lucky's Tale is a MUCH better example of a throwback 3D platformer done right.

[@ectoburger6822]

The Deadly Premonition series is my favorite game series of all time. Unironically. But I'm drawn to that kind of weirdness and clunk. Love it. Plus, Twin Peaks being my favorite TV show of all time definitely has something to do with it.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I actually haven't played the second game yet! But I love Twin Peaks, too

[@Shadowblade1213]

Both games are great but 1 is in my top 10 games of all time.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@Shadowblade1213 I've never made a list of my top 10 games of all time. I did give it a 10/10, though. So it should really be up there

[@darkmatter7266]

I think there is definitely a correlation between digging Deadly Premonition ( almost abbreviated it 😅) & a fondness or possibly even a tolerance for Lynch.

[@eXistenZ1864]

DP 2 is hard to finish for me sadly, it's so boring. 😢

[@LuriTV]

The best description I've heard about Deadly Preminition was from James Stephany Sterling. They made a comparison to Mr. Burns from one of the earlier Simpsons episodes where Dr. Hibbert made the acertain that Mr. Burns was so ridden with illnesses that all these illnesses canceled each other out, so that he comes along as extremely healthy.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Lol. That's a great analogy. I remember that episode, and it's a fitting description for Deadly Premonition 🤣

[@themanboycave122]

Games don’t have to be good to enjoy them. Growing up in the 80s is proof of that.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Preach!

[@jekw23]

Games felt like a challenge. Like the devs were daring you to complete the game (not enjoy it). There are exceptions (Super Mario) but a lot just felt like a test.

[@Imozart0341I]

Lololol no lies detected

[@KeviRun]

I want to come over and sit down and let's play Action 52... but Mom says I need to clean my room so it'll have to be another day. I just noticed how cozy that game room looks from the long shot of it.

[@RNGGamerYT]

It's a bummer you can't come over! The gameroom is kind of barbell shaped. The end where I film is fairly spacious, but the area behind me is pretty narrow. Cozy is a very nice way to put it 😁

[@Barbel1th]

For Deadly Premonition you forgot to mention one of the weirdest aspects of the game: the hygiene system. You had to make sure you showered, shaved and brushed your teeth before going out or the NPCs would notice and comment. If you let it go far enough some NPCs would be too disgusted to even talk to you. If you want to play an excellent walking simulator with a great story and actual horror elements, I cannot recommend SOMA highly enough. SOMA has enemies you have to avoid, but you can turn them off so they don't harm you in the options and still unlock all the achievements.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I forgot about that part of Deadly Premonition.... wouldn't you have flies swirling around you if you didn't shower fire a few days?!? I want to play SOMA. I'm waiting on a physical version to come out 😄

[@Barbel1th]

@@RNGGamerYT Yeah, you'd get the halo of flies and the "Stinky Agent" penalty, though I'm not really sure what that did other than make some NPCs disgusted. I think it might have affected the amount of money you were paid by the agency, but money was never really an issue for me in the game. Probably gonna have to hope for Limited Run to do a physical of SOMA because I don't think Frictional will do it themselves.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@Barbel1th thanks for reminding me. I hope LRG puts out SOMA as well!

[@grogueQ]

Dark Souls. There's really no reason anyone should like this, but it's massive appeal launched fromsoft into its Heights of Awesomeness. Talk about no hand holding. You could play through this whole game without knowing 1/10 of what was going on. The first time I played it I quit when I got to the first bonfire and saw that after all my work I got one point to level up with and no map?. And then it asked me if I wanted to reverse hollowing or Kindle the bonfire and I said f*** this. Why is this game so good, I still don't know to this day, but I love it anyway.

[@RNGGamerYT]

It really should be an objectively bad game. I'm surprised every day that it won over so many peoplr

[@jekw23]

You’ve just described my first (and only) experience with this game. I feel like I’m not part of the Dark Souls club. You’re just supposed to fail and fail until you almost intuitively get a feel for the mechanics. I do not find this enjoyable as I like to see and feel development. Getting my face smashed to pieces repeatedly was not enjoyable.

[@Talking_Ed]

Deadly Premonition is one of my favourite games ever, it's so bizarre and experimental!

[@RNGGamerYT]

I know! Same here. I'm always shocked by how memorable it was

[@maynardwayward12]

Bruh, I remember renting Action 52 when it came out. I was just a child. The building that was a video store still stands. And the terrible memories remain. I was just a child.

[@RNGGamerYT]

They could go to jail for child abuse!

[@k4ruchi]

I can kind of see why you'd expect To the Moon to be bad, but I'm sincerely happy you don't think it is. I love that game so much. I walked up the aisle to "Everything's Alright" and my son was baptised when Sarah's and Jonny's Version of "For River" was playing.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Those are fantastic pieces to use! I'm so glad that To the Moon meant so much to you!

[@RetrocartCollector]

Some really interesting games in this one man! As someone that loves some pretty ‘terrible’ games, this one made me smile!

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks for watching, brother! There is plenty of terribeness to go around 😂

[@ericross441]

Action 52 is like going fishing, it's way better after a few beers 😁

[@RNGGamerYT]

Haha, truer words have never been said 😆

[@mage1439]

That tracks, because fishing sober is awful to me.

[@mr.blonde5344]

"The Order: 1886"

[@RNGGamerYT]

That's a great one! I actuality really liked that game

[@soillodge]

@@RNGGamerYT Agreed, I really enjoyed it and wish they would have filled it out more.

[@Golipillas]

Great potential, still waiting for the sequel!

[@tonyp9313]

k what's wrong with that? That was a good game.

[@soillodge]

@@Golipillas Never going to happen though. The Dev switched platforms and no other studio is going to bother with it because it was a PS exclusive. Too much hassle for the IP.

[@takitamkana9403]

I appreciate the honest opinions you've presented here. This channel feels really genuine, a lot of other gaming channels nowadays just parrot popular opinions online, so yours definitely stands out by being personal. Good job!

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks! These really are my personal opinions. I don't have anything to prove to anyone. I just want to share the games I love with everyone

[@Daniel---Ruiz]

As a kid 20 years ago, I regrettably spent my own damn money on Mortal Kombat Special Forces. I never finished it and was recently thinking about seeing it through to the end. Or maybe that's just crazy talk and I should stay far away.

[@RNGGamerYT]

That's a truly terrible game from everything I've seen! Sorry that was the first game you bought 😅

[@GorTheMovieGod]

Great video but Francis York Morgan is the best character of all time. This is a true fact. I freaking LOVE to the Moon. It also broke my heart but I also loved everything before it too. Also, you gotta play Rogue Warrior if you want so bad it's good.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I'm actually on the lookout for Rogue Warrior! Francis York Morgan is a 10/10 character... all day. He's absolutely incredible and is one of my favorites, too. . To the Moon has one of the best stories to any game I've ever played

[@rpgtrident3364]

For me, Quest 64. Growing up I just thought it was difficult. It's only when I discovered youtube that I noticed everyone saying the game was straight up terrible but I love it.

[@RNGGamerYT]

This is one I've never played. I should go pick up a copy

[@jessem3149]

It's brutal but really fun. One of the first brutal JRPG types I remember. When using items and rationing them truly mattered in an rpg.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@jessem3149 I'm going to have to go pick it up... 😅

[@wyredaftsquall]

A Hat In Time was amazing

[@RNGGamerYT]

It really was!

[@satan-kun8974]

Damn I’m sold on all of these you make some genuinely great videos man

[@RNGGamerYT]

It makes me so happy to hear this! That's the whole reason I do it.

[@erallen97]

Mad Max on the PS 4 is one I ended up loving. It is a little repetitive but deserves more credit than it got. I also enjoyed A Hat In Time.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I completely missed out on Mad Max. It's hard to find now.... Thanks for watching!

[@DoorsInTheLabyrinth]

I do love 3d collect-a-thon platformers, and I also love goofy/adorable games, so A Hat In Time was a pretty easy sell for me. I played it on the Switch and didn't have any of the technical glitches that you did, so that sucks and definitely would take you out of the experience. But as far as what made it so much fun to play, I think it was how satisfying the movement was. You're doing crazy jump/dive combos across the level, and bouncing in place when you aren't. It has a constant sense of motion and energy. The other aspect that made it great was the challenge. Particularly when you got into the DLC stuff. There's nothing more satisfying that beating a challenge that had you stuck, failing over and over until you finally get it. I was not expecting the level of challenge with the cutesy aesthetics, but the game delivered.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I think you may be onto something with the constant sense of motion in A Hat in Time. There's certainly a feeling of alacrity when playing it and maybe that's what made me fall in love with it!

[@mechaotakugamer]

To the Moon has a very beautifully written and emotional story. The gameplay may not be impressive, but I watched a full playthrough, and by the end, I shed a tear or two.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Couldn't have said it better myself!

[@ironicstan]

Not to mention the music! The music is so beautiful as well!

[@PigeonPlucker]

To the Moon is a total NON-game.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@PigeonPlucker it kind of is

[@arthurp3ndrag0n]

I played To the Moon more than a decade ago and I still remember how much I cried at the end, and about Darkest of Days I wanted so bad to play this game but all AMD cards can`t run it, so my next card was an Nvidia just so I could play it and I really enjoyed that game, for me it is a 7 out of 10. Great video btw.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks so much! It's great to hear that I'm not alone on To the Moon and that you had a similar experience. I had no idea about Darkest of Days not working in all AMD cards... what jank... lol

[@mgalusic]

"Darkest of days" sounds like someone saw Time splitters and said "let's do that... But not good"

[@RNGGamerYT]

Lol... you gave me a real laugh! Thanks for that!

[@lancem6363]

Wolverine Origins on 360 was awesome! Bought it for next to nothing based on a bad movie but didn't realise the game itself is the bloodbath every Wolverine fan has ever wanted!

[@RNGGamerYT]

I had no idea either!

[@nathanstreilein758]

The story and music of Deadly Premonition were the 2 things that made the game amazing for me. Apparently there is a side quest to unlock fast travel, but I didn't do any of the side quests in my first playthrough.

[@RNGGamerYT]

The story, music, and general atmosphere are what pushed this game into masterpiece territory for me as well!

[@dilbertfish]

Gone Home was a decent palette cleanser. I Am Alive was janky and felt unfinished, but I still completed it. God knows why.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Haha. I haven't even tried I Am Alive... maybe I should

[@wesley300427]

That smile that formed slowly while enjoying a game everyone hates in the beginning of your video was hilarious 😂

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks! I really appreciate that!

Man, As a gamer who watches tons of KZbin Game Reviewers, you are the first that sounds like someone from where im from...The south... Nice to hear a good ole country boy on the gaming scene....Glad i found your channel😀. I fall asleep to AVGN, but i woke up hearing your voice like “who is this?”…Hooked!!

I'm glad to hear that! Yeah, I'm definitely from the south! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!

[@420neoclash420]

A game that I love that not many people (that I know) have played is Vagrant Story. Objectively it is a really good game with unique combat that was way ahead of its time imo. It just... doesn't really tell you how to play, so if you are picking it up for the first time you are going to think it sucks because the enemy encounters are just ridiculous. Everything just murders you, while it takes forever to kill one of the 5 things in the room to progress. You can scrape by when its just bats and rats, but once you start facing soldiers? I am positive this is where everyone gave up and said f*ck this game! I mean... it is a Squaresoft game after all, so I am sure it sold fairly well. You just never hear people talk about it, because they almost certainly stopped playing before really figuring out how to.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I actually have Vagrant Story! It's in my backlog to play. I had no idea that it was difficult at all 😅

[@420neoclash420]

@@RNGGamerYT I mean it really isn't once you get the mechanics down. The game just doesn't tell you what's up and the internet was still pretty new and not yet widely available. Trial and error'ing it takes forever and all the while you are struggling and dying. So a lot of people just gave up, because thats not fun. Its one of those instances where a more in depth tutorial would have made all the difference.

[@anna-puu]

Some of these games look like fun! But Action 52, oh god. I'm sure you are 100% right about it being a blast with a friend. I played through all of it and lost my will to play any games anymore for some period.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Lol! Like someone mentioned, Action 52 is like fishing. It's better after a few beers 😆

[@RetroRivals]

Shit dude! This video has absolutely taken off. I can only comment on one game and that's gone home and literally everything you said makes perfect sense. All right, it shouldn't be as good as it is but for some reason it works. I think I would compare it a bit to What Remains of Edith Finch. There's nothing super special about that one either, but the storytelling in it makes it something next level. What do we think 10000 by the end of next week?

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks for watching! I think I may have learned enough to actually make a half decent video here and there 😅 What Remains of Edith Finch is an amazing game... just remarkable. But, definitely in the camp of Gone Home. There's no way I'll hit 10k in a week. 😅 I would like to do it by April, though

[@Thoushaltplaymore]

A hat in time was designed to be that way! Like a throwback to the old PS1/n64 3d platformers

[@RNGGamerYT]

Yeah! But it wasn't designed to bug out on you. I also hate 3D platforming collectathons... and it still managed to win me over

[@RNGGamerYT]

[@cactoidpinata]

I have never heard of that Darkest of Days game. The timing is weird for discovering it, because it reminds me of the Kingmakers trailer that dropped recently. I was thinking to myself while watching the Kingmakers trailer, "I've never seen anything quite like this!" Darkest of Days doesn't look nearly as fun and engaging, but the premise is similar.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Everyone seems to be really pumped for Kingmaker! It definitely looks like the better game, but Darkest of Days is a janky blast if you get the chance to play it.

[@jake90052]

Omg yes!! (Just watching the rest of your upload!) "To the moon" broke me!! That was heavy. Everyone should play that, what a gorgeous game.

Cool video idea! I'm currently playing Stranger of Paradise: FF Origins, and I find it to be a blast. It's so over the top I can't help but love it; pure camp in the BEST way. Another one I think was better than its reputation was Nostalgia on the DS. It's a pretty basic love letter to Skies of Arcadia (which I haven't played), but I found it to be very cute and surprisingly heartfelt.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I haven't played Skies of Arcadia, but I have an Ex who sure did 😅 I've been curious about Stranger in Paradise. It's just a AAA remake of the 1st game, right?

[@RwnEsper]

@@RNGGamerYT Not really. The marketing was pretty bad IMO. It's more of a re-imagined prequel story, with strong ties to the Dissidia stories (which seem to link all of the FF universes). I haven't played the NIOH games yet, but I've heard the community refer to SoP as Nioh 3, so apparently it plays like those games. For me, I'd describe it as a cross between Bloodborne and Diablo, with a crimson splash of Ninja Gaiden. (Nioh, Ninja Gaiden, and SoP all share Team Ninja as developer, so the similar structures make sense).

[@RNGGamerYT]

@RwnEsper that's fascinating. The marketing for this game was terrible

Somehow I knew Deadly Premonition would make an appearance here! I have it in my backlog, but still haven't gotten to it. As a huge fan of Twin Peaks though, I know that I need to give this one a try at some point. I also have Peach Beach Splash, not so much because it was a game I really wanted to play, but because I had the opportunity to pick up the collector's edition (or whatever it's called) at a very cheap price. I'm glad to hear that it is actually a fun game with solid game play. Other than that, maybe I'll give Gone Home or To the Moon a shot at some point. They sound interesting, but I don't currently own either one. Also, I am somewhat intrigued by Darkest of Days. I've never heard of it before, but the premise sounds interesting. I really like the Mark Twain book A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, and this honestly sounds like someone said, how can we turn this book into a mindless fun video game? I may have to keep an eye out for this one so that I can give it a try someday.

A Freaking Hat in Time!!! Oh man. It glitched on the final boss. I attempted several times, but it would make my character disappear, and the battlefield would become stuck. I eventually gave up after finishing the entire game because the final boss was impossible. And even with that, it's still on my top 10 Ps4 games. 😅

[@RNGGamerYT]

I know, right! It's so amazing that we're all able to overlook its incredible technical difficulties 😁

[@buckroger6456]

This was a killer list 👍 love hearing about so called bad games that end up just being a fun time.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks so much! I'm thrilled you liked the list

[@buckroger6456]

@RNGGamerYT liked it? I loved it! You captured what makes gaming so good. I remember playing many games like those back in the 80s and the 90s. Sometimes you just end up enjoying a game because it's so bad, other times it's due to the music or even the levels.

[@MrJimithee]

SwordMaster on the NES!... Me and my brother played the HELL out of it, loved the atmosphere.. Total Nintendo magazine (which I subscribed to) gave it 9% ! The lowest score they ever gave I think

[@RNGGamerYT]

Really!?! I had no idea it was so low. I've played a bit of it. Maybe one day I'll actually find a copy somewhere for not a crazy price

[@nathanstreilein758]

Oh and I have Darkest of Days, but didn't even know the gamerscore was easy to obtain. Only played it a bit so far.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Yeah! The 1000 gamerscore is stupid easy

[@AlienDenzil85]

I've played all of the games on the list that released on PC. I tried Deadly Premonition as a friend recommended as it is pretty much Twin Peaks: The Game. It has all the faults you mention, but it still sucked me in and I had a blast with it. To The Moon hit me with all the feelings at the end, despite the frustrations I had with the game up until that point. A Hat In Time was probably the game I enjoyed the most out of all the games - I was probably lucky that I didn't have any of the major bugs and so was able to enjoy the game for what it was without that side of things. Maybe the PC port fixed some of the issues with earlier versions of the game.

[@RNGGamerYT]

You sound like you have great taste in games! I'm glad we enjoyed so many of the same things. I think the Switch version of A Hat in Time was the buggiest of them all.

[@NeroZenith]

if you liked darkest of days, there's a new game called kingmakers coming out which is similar in premise but it's on the Unreal Engine 5, the trailer is hilarious

[@RNGGamerYT]

I just checked it out! It looks insane

[@russellcampbell3500]

Hey bro just seen the vid and made me think of a question for you. Have you ever played cronno trigger? Its literally one of my all time favorite games as a teen. Kefka's laugh was cringe but unforgettable. Another great video.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I've beaten Chrono Trigger before. But I'm going to play it again. It's in the backlog I'm glad you liked the video 😁

[@jordanhilton1815]

First off I understand why you like that game with the girls LOL second off at my local video game store one of the employees would try to push Deadly Premonition on to anybody that would listen even random super ridiculously casual gamers or moms that might be there to buy their children games and the game was going for like $45 used for a 360 game that came out 15 years ago I always thought that was super weird

[@RNGGamerYT]

That guy does sound super weird! But at least he was onto something

[@janezverbic2093]

Darkest of days, Yes, one of those games i found that works on my B system.(an oldish laptop)

[@RNGGamerYT]

It's so janky 😅

[@janezverbic2093]

@@RNGGamerYT It has a great premise, everything else is a problem... didnt play it much and for a while now... tried to load it to remind myself... just goes black after 30 sec, with the game and sound running... Yes it is.😁

[@DivineFalcon]

Two Worlds. One of the jankiest RPGs in existence, but the voice acting and dialogue are glorious. It's like aliens trying to recite Shakespeare.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I'm so surprised to see this game getting some love in the comments!

[@gutterfingers]

I love the deadly premonition games ! Super charming and fun! I loved skipping rocks for hours ... 😂

[@RNGGamerYT]

It really is an incredible game!

[@Thoushaltplaymore]

Peter Jackson's King kong was a game i got just for achievements. I mean i love peter Jackson and i really like the movie but initially it was just for achievements. Butin the end i really enjoyed the game

[@RNGGamerYT]

That's awesome! I love hearing about games that ended up being better than you expected (rather than the other way around). I would try it out if I could find a copy at a decent price 🤣

[@johnnada6855]

OK, Deadly Premonition is a MASTERPIECE, is a game that was made that way on purpose, i mean, if it was a movie, it would have been just as weird, as for the technical aspects a) that game was really made for the ps2 and the orginal xbox, i think that what sweary65 achieved with the town and stuff is highly detailed and complex for those consoles, and you got to remember that b) making games for the 360 and the ps3 was SUPER EXPENSIVE, the true triple A started with those consoles and basically broke and left out of the busines, especially in japan, those games, that´s why the western PC gaming took over gaming and consoles, for the japanese middleware and indie was too expensive, so they ported what they had.... Deadly Premonition is amazing on it´s concept, details and overall it´s style, is really a psychodelic mystery adventure game

[@RNGGamerYT]

I was sad that we didn't get to see that much more stuff from Swery! I was really liking his games! I agree, it's a masterpiece!

[@shadowmaksim]

To be truthful, I've never really understood the sentiment of "so bad, it's good". As well as other notions such as "guilty pleasures" or "ironic enjoyment". They just seem like such a depressing way to view entertainment media. I'm heavily anti-Sturgeon's law if that wasn't clear. I don't know, to me, every piece of media is flawed in some capacity. But if you can still find aspects to genuinely like despite the issues, shouldn't that be enough in most cases? Then it just becomes a matter of differentiating individual tastes on what qualities appeal to us vs what and how much we can tolerate. A game I like isn't a good game, it just had enough aspects I managed to enjoy. A game I didn't like isn't a bad game, it just didn't have enough aspects I managed to resonate with.

[@RNGGamerYT]

It's just a way for people to support their reasoning for enjoying something that I'd objectively bad!

[@ThePhilatron]

Clever video concept. Very entertaining. I dont think A Hat in Time has any place here as it is just a good game. Couldn't agree more about Deadly Premonition though. Oh and I have always hated Gone Home and that is coming from someone who likes visual novels, books, and adventure games. That's probably just a personal preference though.

[@RNGGamerYT]

A Hat it Time was a contentious choice! But, this is a list of my experiences. That's why it's called "That I've Ever Played" and not "Of All Time." I hate 3d platformers. So, A Hat in Time was basically destined to be terrible to me. 🤣 I'm glad you liked the video!

[@MSDGAMEZ]

Who played Deadly premonition 2? I did lol

[@RNGGamerYT]

I want to play it so badly!

[@ObjectiveEthics]

So many sports games could have made this list. It's really sad how much of my life I wasted playing really bad hocky games... and loved every minute of it 😂

[@RNGGamerYT]

Did you play Mutant League Hockey!?!

[@ObjectiveEthics]

@@RNGGamerYT Yes but fortunately it was my friends game so I was limited on the self imposed masochism. Best - worst for me was Ice Hockey on the original Nintendo. The super skinny players were the best for offense and a fat guy for defense.

[@RNGGamerYT]

@ObjectiveEthics it's still fun! ! I played it just a couple of years ago 😁

[@Executi0ner246]

Darkest of Days rocks! I played it late last year and while i did play it for the 1000G, i wanted to get it since its getting increasingly harder to get. I remember seeing an ad for it in a 2009 xbox 360 magazine and it interested me ever since lol

[@RNGGamerYT]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Still haven't met anyone who didn't play it initially for the gamerscore 😆

[@ktulu084]

Great video 🤘🏻

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate you watching

[@hellerhs]

Great video, i subbed!

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate that! 😄

[@Saulbreadman]

Starfield. While everyone hates it(i still swear a lot of that hate is due to it being a Bethesda/xbox game) i love it. The gameplay is a huge improvement from the fallout games. The ship building is interesting and unique. The writing is good. Its classic Bethesda goodness to me. Its not perfect but i really enjoy it and it deserves better.

[@RNGGamerYT]

A fantastic choice!!! As long as you love the game, what else matters? 😁

[@mhug86]

Anybody play "Killer 7"? I enjoyed the hell out of it but everybody I recommended it to thought it was wierd and couldn't understand the story

[@RNGGamerYT]

I'm a big fan of killer7. I've covered it several times on the channel. It was even in my best games of the year list for 2023

[@jayblack7495]

Darkest of Days Mindjack Quantum Theory Binary Domain Inversion Shellshock 2 Bloodtrails Yep, I loved oddball 360 games...

[@RNGGamerYT]

Darkest of Days was in the video! Several of these are games in my backlog! 😁

[@Thoushaltplaymore]

Firewatch is the best " walking simulator "

[@RNGGamerYT]

It's a great walking simulator!!! 🤣

[@blacksunshinegaming]

I did play darkest days. I rented it from gamefly back when it 1st came out. It is bad. Missing one achievement screwed up and wasn't able to get other ending lol.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I haven't thought about gamefly in a while! It's a bad game for sure... but I still had a good time

[@F34RZ3N]

Growing up I had to embrace the shitty jank. I can fall in love with almost any game I have a basic rudimentary interest in.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I feel the same way!

[@moandaindesigns]

This was a fun video. Maybe Guilty pleasers next?

[@RNGGamerYT]

That's not a bad idea for a video! I'll see if I can get a list together

[@SupaRush]

I approve of your man of culture pick, Senran Kagura ❤

[@RNGGamerYT]

I'm cultured AF

[@SupaRush]

@@RNGGamerYT 😜

[@lonewanderer2798]

Haven't heard of Darkest of Days. There's a game coming out called kingmakers that looks similar so might be worth checking out.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I watched the trailer for this... and it looks... magnificent.

[@Warrenmitchum]

I never look at reviews. A lot of games I like are hated.

[@RNGGamerYT]

I totally understand that. I love to look at reviews myself, but I don't let them usually dictate what I want to play 😄

[@wouterbisschop9843]

Clicked hoping on deadly premonition being in the video. Score! I get the things people might dislike about this game but it's so weird and unique I just had to play it till the end despite it's shortcomings.

[@RNGGamerYT]

It's definitely the best example of a game like this. I love it

[@itsagabe]

Hang on, people say A Hat in Time is BAD?! That's criminal, tbh. I never had any problems whatsoever with this game. Loved every second of it, actually, especially the metro DLC.

[@RNGGamerYT]

It has about a 75 on metacritic so, the general public seems to find it pretty average. It made this video because I had a preconceived notion that I would hate it. Since it contained all of the gameplay elements I normally don't like, I just knew it would suck. Luckily, it really won me over.

[@atarifanboy1977]

Another great video man. I love terrible games. Ill have to check out dariest of days. Also i love the senran kagura games. They are surpisingly well made fanservice games. Some of my picks for so bad they sre good games are rogue warrior, Bullet Girls Phantsis, ride to hell retribution, Rambo the Game, and Silent Hill Downpour. I also just bought the Walking Dead Survival Instinct as ive hesrd that one is a stinker. Hopefully its s fun time.

[@RNGGamerYT]

Those are all terrible games! I actually beat Bullet Girls Phantasia... A few of these are in the backlog! Thanks for watching!

[@Retro-Lover]

Never seen a video on this topic before🎉🎉🎉

[@RNGGamerYT]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Danielsonic87]

For me, for example Sonic 2006 and Castlevania Legacy of Darkness are very good game. Even Boiling Point on PC were not so bad

[@RNGGamerYT]

I actually haven't played any of those games. But, they all seem like a great time! Thanks for commenting 😁
