* Wacky anti-Chinese propaganda SNES game ''Hong Kong 97'' is a terrible shooter with photographed graphics all taken from various parts of Chinese culture. It's intended to mock the Chinese government, but the gameplay is horrible. It's been reviewed [http://www.viddler.com/explore/ChipCheezum/videos/116/ here].
* ''[[Kart Fighter]]''. Yes, it's unlicensed and has crappy graphics, but how many NES [[Fighting Game|Fighting Games]] (other than ''[[Street Fighter]]'') would allow the player to perform hadouken motions? It's also one of the few games barring the ''[[Super Smash Bros]]'' series where you could have Mario Kart characters physically beat each other up, and better than most other NES fighting games out there.

* ''[[Zoo Race]]'', a completely mediocre racing game with a less-than-subtle Christian message. Yet there's so much about it that makes it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rninK-0G1ec unintentionally hilarious], such as the Nightmare Fuel that is Rueban, horses being shot out of cannons and the fact that the race announcer is ''[[God]]'', while seemingly stoned''.
* ''[[Frontlines
* ''[[Chaos Wars]]'' has a hilariously bad [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAtC1SzWSXg English dub], which is the result of a CEO hiring his family members to do the dubbing job. It has attracted the game lots of attention and is always good for a laugh. The voice acting makes everyone sound like they're stoned.
** And a hilariously bad localization effort, too. For example, every "Breath" attack was translated as "Bless". So watch out for those dragons and their "Fire Bless". And the card game "Rebirth Moon" was translated as "Reverse Moon" despite there being an ''English translation'' on the logo displayed where they wrote this.
* ''[[Dawn of War]]: Soulstorm'' has spawned dozens of memes because of its hilariously bad writing and voice acting, of which "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbRGg3e1b68 SPESS MEHREENS!]" and "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO3MttgvHUY METAL BOXES!]" are only the tip of the iceberg.

Line 49:
* ''[[Final Fight]] Streetwise''. The graphics were terrible, the "zombie druggie" story-line was unnecessary, you can't play as Cody, Haggar or Guy in single player and except for the increase in bad language the game feels lackluster overall. However, the pit fights were great, the overreaching story harkens back to ''Final Fights'' of long ago, and the surprise final boss and (relatively) happy ending make it worth playing.
* ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' [[Follow the Leader|had many clones]], with various degrees of success. Among those that are bad, there are many that are a great source of it. This doesn't apply to all of them, since there are some (like ''[[Kasumi Ninja]]'') that don't have anything fun in particular, or others (like [[Shadow War of Succession]]) that are just plain horrible. If you want to see MK clones, just see the [[Follow the Leader]] section in the [[Mortal Kombat]] page.
** ''[[Primal Rage]]'' would just be another generic fighting game if wasn't so stupid-awesome. In it, the dinosaurs went extinct because a wizard from another dimension imprisoned one of their gods in the moon. An asteroid hits the Earth, releases the [[Player Character|ancient dinosaur gods]], rearranges the continents into a ''[[Tyrannosaurus Rex|T. rex]]'' skull, and turns the Earth into the [[Grimdark]] [[After the End|post-apocalyptic]] "[[Xtreme Kool Letterz|Urth]]." Throw in some [[Gorn]], an [[Everything's Better
** Both of Strata's fighting games (''[[Time Killers]]'' and ''[[Blood Storm]]'') just have to count. Both are attempts at creating a [[Bloodier and Gorier]] rival to ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'', and both fall flat on their face because of horrible graphics, terrible sound, and piss-poor gameplay. And yet, this was the first fighting game to let you chop off people's limbs...[[Just a Flesh Wound|and keep hacking it out.]] ''Time Killers'' would even let you cut off someone's head ''at any point in the match'' with just a single button press. ''Blood Storm'' was more of the same, but now you could cut off someone's '''lower body.''' If they still had some health left, they could still move around by sliding on their exposed entrails. It's just so incredibly stupid and immature it suddenly becomes hilariously awesome.
* Speaking of Strata, ''[[Ninja Clowns]]'' is a [[Beat'Em Up]] involving two clowns trying to stop a villain named Twisto from causing a [[Zombie Apocalypse]], but you don't really fight any zombies whatsoever (Save for one in the first level). Your enemies consist of (but not limited to) lawyers, [[New Age Retro Hippie|hippies]], [[Girl Scouts Are Evil|girl scouts who throw cookies]] and [[Elvis Impersonator|ElvisImpersonators]]. The bosses are more odd, such as a bowler, a chicken who sqauts and fires eggs, and a spider explodes into green popcorn when defeated. To get health, you have to punch hobos or mimes so they drop hot dogs and pizza, and besides your punches and kicks, you can attack with pies, tomatoes and spray bottles. But it is playable if you can get past the absurdity and stereotypes.

* Even the [[American Girls Collection]] was no exception to this - the ''American Girls Premiere'' for the PC and pre-OS X Macintosh was supposed to be a fun game for little girls looking for some theatre action while learning American history. It turned out to be a laughable little game to kill some time with, allowing players to spawn Felicity Merriman and her friends and subject her to rounds and rounds of crude humour and profanity, thanks to the speech engine.
* In Japan, such games are so beloved that they have been given a title, "Kuso-ge" (translation: "shitty games"). Not all are terrible, but to qualify for this title, they need to be enjoyed primarily for [[Camp]] value, rather than gameplay.

* The Japan-only Famicom RPG ''[[Hoshi wo Miru Hito]]'', aka ''Stargazer'', is called by many Japanese gamers the "legendary shit game". Listing all of its faults would take up entirely too much space here (to start with, the towns' tile graphics don't seem to fit together in the slightest and exiting them teleports you somewhere else entirely, you can't cancel any of your selections in battle menus, the HP counts in battle are truncated so that only the last digit is visible, you're forced to use passwords instead of battery saves and they don't even save your level), so you can read about it at [http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/stargazer/stargazer.htm this link.]

** For the record, the plot is a [[Cliché Storm]] [[Serious Business]] [[Shonen]] anime, except it all involves construction vehicle demolition derbies. But it's developed in Britain!
* Believe it or not, Kemco's ''Universal Studios Theme Parks Adventure'' is nowhere near the train-wreck gamers make it out to be. It could've used a few improvements in many areas--mostly to make the "experience" of going to a theme park slightly more realistic--but the fact that it features ''Back to the Future: The Ride'' as a playable minigame AND one of the most awesome intros and outros ever seen should help its reputation.
* ''[[Trio the Punch]]''. Made by [[Data East]], it's regarded as the first ''kuso-ge''. The three characters are the most stereotyped heroes ever (a ninja, a brawler and a barbarian that looks like Rastan), each has his own theme which loops endlessly throughout ''the entire game'', Karnov is inexplicably a common enemy, clearing a stage nets a "WIN WIN" and a roulette where you can power-up or down with an old sensei declaring "LUCKY! CHA CHA CHA!", a sheep boss turns your into a sheep for the whole next stage... since it would take too much to list everything, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0Z3Nb4KXwA here's a 3-parts commentary] on this (clearly voluntary) crappy game.
* ''Chaser'', an obscure first person shooter by Slovakian developer Cauldron has numerous graphical and gameplay glitches, absolutely horribly-written dialogue and worse voice acting, but it also happens to be a genuinely fun shooter despite these faults, with absolutely awesome music, a unique gritty cyberpunk-ish style, and a certain charm to its quirky unpolishedness.

* ''[[Deadly Premonition]]'' features FBI criminal profiler Francis York Morgan ([[Cloudcuckoolander|Just call him York. That's what everyone else does.]]) going to a town to investigate a link between a drug and murders. The controls are awkward, the characters are all mired in the [[Uncanny Valley]], the American voice acting is often [[Hong Kong Dub|out of sync with the character animations]] that seems to have been motion-captured by a Japanese amateur theater troupe, the soundtrack is limited (leading to common [[Soundtrack Dissonance]]), most of the graphics looks like they were meant for a [[Dreamcast]] game (despite being made for 7th generation consoles), and the first 20-30 minutes of game consists of arguably the weakest part of its gameplay - a level of [[Narm|Narmy]], ''[[Resident Evil]]'' inspired [[Survival Horror]] combat. And yet, behind this hides a pretty entertaining ''[[Twin Peaks]]''-esque [[Wide Open Sandbox]] game, which is quite charming in its own quirky way. The Destructoid review also mentions the quirkiness as one of the game's strongest points:

* ''Pepsiman''. You're Pepsi's mascot, running around various landscapes trying to bring Pepsi to people via [[Excuse Plot|Excuse Plots]], [[Everything Is Trying to Kill You|Everything (including ''giant Pepsi cans'') is Trying to Kill You]], there's no in-game music, the graphics aren't very well polished, there's a fat American bloke that is present in ''all'' the cutscenes, each mission is time-limited and it's very [[Nintendo Hard|hard]]. However, partly because it's still an enjoyable yet frustrating game, partly because the main theme is [[Awesome Music|pretty awesome]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkIaReGceTk (with a catchy theme tune screaming "PEPSI MAAAAAAN!!!")], partly because God only knows, some countries loved it. And no, there were no Pepsiman ads in these countries, oddly enough. Another reason is probably how ridiculously goofy Pepsiman take things on, and some death scenes can get amusing for poor Pepsiman... (helps that Pepsiman himself is an [[Iron Butt Monkey]])
* ''[[The Last Resurrection]]'': the gameplay is glitch-ridden and fiddly, the graphics resemble a cross between a 16-bit JRPG and Fuzzy Felts, the dialogue is corny and full of mistakes, and to top it all off the entire thing's a blatant [[Author Tract]] about the evils of Christianity - the final boss is [[God Is Evil|none other than]] [[Jesus]] himself. What's not to love?

* ''[[Overblood]]'' is certainly one of these. Tank controls, [[Guide Dang It]], [[Narm]] to the tenth degree and average graphics for the time. Hilarious deaths, great fighting and... it's beautiful.
* ''Sniper: Path Of Vengeance'' is a thoroughly glitchy and ugly game that you could hardly call playable, but the nature of these bugs gives it its charm. You have a school bus that bleeds when you shoot at it, and eventually disappears into thin air, being able to fly by pressing jump+duck, some truly idiotic AI, weirdly deforming characters, and the "climactic" shootout of the final cutscene, where the developers forgot to give the characters guns (yeah, they fire by [[Finger Gun|pointing with their fingers]]). Became a [[Cult Classic]] comparable to ''Big Rigs'' in Hungary, when a game reviewer trashed it to bits, and later made several follow-ups, as the glitches just kept coming.

* The obscure Italian-made [[Driving Game]] ''Blomby Car'' had only had a limited arcade release in the 1990s, but since has become somewhat more known through emulation. The player's car has ridiculous acceleration and handling, and is good at producing engine noise and smoke, caroming off walls and overturning continuously when it crashes. Other vehicles (including first-aid trucks) lie across the road, forcing the player's course off it at some spots.
* ''Paris-Dakar Rally Special'', a [[Driving Game]] for the Famicom that is utterly deranged. It actually starts out as an adventure game. Enemies in the driving stages range from very fast cars that try to rear-end you to boulders that fall from nowhere. There is even an [[Under the Sea]] level.
* ''[[Metal Wolf Chaos]]''. The story centers around the [[Authority Equals Asskicking|President of the United States of America]], Michael Wilson, fending off a coup by the [[Evil Chancellor|Vice President]], [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Richard Hawk]], in his [[Humongous Mecha|gigantic mecha]], Metal Wolf. The gameplay, mostly centering around [[Stuff Blowing Up|blowing up American landmarks]], is fun and genuinely good (as you'd expect of [[From Software]]), which means the ridiculous plot and dialogue, containing mangled [[Engrish]] that is spoken by native English speakers, can be enjoyed by all. Oh yeah, there's also a fight sequence where the President [[Large Ham|yells]] "SUCK ON MY [[Rocket Punch|MISSILE PUNCH!]]" and "[[For Great Justice|EAT MY FLAME OF JUSTICE!]]" We'd vote for him.
* The [[Atari Jaguar]] featured a ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' clone called ''Kasumi Ninja'', with controls broken in as rudimentary ways as the menu screens, and many an [[Ethnic Scrappy]] in the roster of characters. Those features would tend to make it a horrible game for the most part, but on the plus side, one of those characters is a Scotsman who can lift up his kilt and shoot fireballs out of his crotch.

According to him, because the game was made in the earlier days of fangaming, he had no idea what sort of quality or expectations existed. As a result, he released a "game" that was really essentially just a string of clumsily-conducted experiments along the set Mario theme. Though they do display a good amount of the various things TGF can do, the developer spent little to no time honing any one aspect to the optimum capacity, and as soon as [http://www.mfgg.net the site that hosted it] began allowing reviews, the game was nitpicked to death by numerous players. Most of its camp value owes to its particularly horrible graphics, with sprite styles that clash, as well as badly scaled individual sprites (numerous doors the player can enter that are much smaller than himself may be the greatest example), background scenery that ranges from dull to nonexistant, curiously-placed terrain, such as magma floating in mid-air, and bosses that bounce around the arena with no true animation frames.
