"Very Worst"? Obviously someone has never played Superman 64...


How about Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing?

- Description talks about outrunning cops to deliver illegal goods, but there are no cops in the game

- AI opponents never move

- No collision detection

- Infinite speed in reverse gear

- Sometimes says you've won before you even left the start line

- The fifth (out of 5) map doesn't load and crashes the game

- A patch to fix the fifth map just turns it into the first map but mirrored (so I guess they couldn't work out how to fix it)

Weirdly somehow I think tens of thousands of copies of this were sold. I pity the people who wasted money on this.


When I read the title for this article, I thought it might be referring to some unconventional racing game that I remembered as getting the worst score ever on some gaming site. That game was Big Rigs. Thanks for reminding me of this hilarious atrocity.

Looks the same guy was the producer for this game the more recent War Z [1]. Its also interesting that War Z also faced accusations around misleading customers [2] and [3].

Dragon's Lair for the original Gameboy (not for the GBC).

Or Enviro-Bear 2000


Enviro-Bear 2000 is actually fun, though.


I'll see your Superman 64 and raise you Action 52.


I would mention an obscure game called 'Begin2' but I actually found it very enjoyable (once I figured out how to play it). :)
