    Big Rigs patch:

    <a href='http://www.download.com/Big-Rigs-Over-the-Road-Racing-Patch/3000-7535_4-10257211.html' target='_blank'>http://www.download.com/Big-Rigs-Over-the-...4-10257211.html</a>

    8,454 downloads

    'Software Publisher's Description
    This patch does hardly anything to resolve the variety of show-stopping bugs and gameplay issues plaguing this game.' - rofl, I don't think that was written by the software publisher, unless its just a huge big joke.

    More crap games <a href='http://www.somethingawful.com/games/' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    I just remembered another game I hated: Mario Party. The mini-games were kinda fun, but it's completely torpedoed by the huge role sheer luck plays, and I don't like games where luck is the dominating factor.

    So many offensive morons. We get asked to name the worst game ever and half the games we name were good games with decent graphics workable storys, and at best minor gameplay issues, just because they were hyped and for some reason we didn't like them. Get over yourselfs. Flamebaiting fanboys is just retardedly lame.

    You have to admit, Big Rig is so bad it's hysterical.

    I wonder if there's a big market for really bad computer games? I mean, -really- bad, like Big Rigs seems to be. Hell, I can't say I'm not intruiged by this game. Is it possible that they intentionally made it bad so that that people would buy the game just to see how bad it is?

    Er, slight exagerration? There hasn't been that many games mentioned really. Of those that have, The Sims and any FF game are the only ones that stick out that the poster is in the minority.

    I really really hated Red Alert 2. Aliens VS Predator 2 sucked, also.

    Dungeon Lords.

    My friend just bought this, despite my telling him over and over to get Morrorwind instead.

    It's just flat out a crappy game.

    Big Rigs is officially my favorite game EVER....You can't NOT laff at a game to tears and have your face go numb and NOT be your fav?! right?!?
  • TrevelyanTrevelyan Join Date: 2003-03-23 Member: 14834Members
    I think it'd be hard to top big rigs... I feel it will be the most incomplete game ever released.

    Ever had fun reading an FAQ? Read the Big Rigs <a href='http://db.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/file/big_rigs.txt' target='_blank'>FAQ</a>.

    Heres some tasters:

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->6.4 LEVEL 4
    There is no level 4. Seriously. The preview screen is just pure white,
    and every time I select it, Big Rigs closes. Maybe you're supposed to be
    driving around purgatory. There is a little snapshot, but you can't tell
    much from it.
    I'm not sure if you can get this level through Random Race. I hope not.
    Difficulty level: N/A
    My tips for Level 4:
    -Don't choose it.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    -Your opponent does nothing. Seriously.
    -You can go through your opponent.
    -There is no limit to the speed you drive at.
    -You can stop almost instantly.
    -It is impossible to lose. Others and I have explored the game's
    files, but nobody has found anything indicating that is is
    possible to lose. ...Big Rigs is a good game for children in
    this way.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Sorry for taking up space, but this is the best worst game ever.

    Somewhere in this thread my memory was piqued and <a href='http://www.gamespot.com/ps/action/epidemic/review.html' target='_blank'>Epidemic</a> for the Playstation came back to me..


    <!--QuoteBegin-Gamespot Review+--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (Gamespot Review)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->As with its prequel, Epidemic is a first-person shooter that buckles players inside a giant robot and forces them to wander through miles of generic underground corridors, shooting enemy mechanoids, picking up items, and solving mini-puzzles of the "find an object here and use it there" variety. There are a lot of these so-called puzzles - more than in any other first-person shooter, as far as I can tell - and solving them usually requires exploring every inch of every level to find the needed clues or items...

    But the graphics still rank far below the splendor of Alien Trilogy, Disruptor, or even Final Doom (which is a port of a three-year-old computer game, for cryin' out loud)...

    Gameplay is tragically flawed, as you can only save after completing a level. With levels that can take upwards of an hour to complete, Epidemic turns into tedium and torture if the end-of-level boss repeatedly waxes you - yes, you have to do it all over again.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Might not be the <i>worst</i>, but it's up there.
  • SoulSkorpionSoulSkorpion Join Date: 2002-04-12 Member: 423Members
    Hahaha. I think Big Rigs is pretty much undisputed as <i>the</i> most horrible game ever.

    Big Rig's been posted 3 times so far, and it's hilarious. I can't get over it.

    FF games do suck, what's so fun about playing a game that's a giant menu?

    Enough of big rigs please stay on topic and do not forget to say why you dislike the game in your opinion.

    I would say a game called gladiators it was not worth the 2 bucks i payed for it

    Lacking both game play and map design.
