** Supposedly, Hideo Kojima has kept this up for the entire franchise, repeatedly trying to sabotage his own games so that he never has to make another one. The fact that he's up to the fourth numbered ''MGS'' game (plus the ''Peace Walker'' side-game) after vowing that the first, second, and third ''MGS'' game would be the last ''[[Metal Gear]]'' game he would ever direct should indicate roughly how successful this has been. Unfortunately, there has been alleged [[Fan Dumb|death threats]] involved each time he tries to quit. The aforementioned fourth ''MGS'' game, ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]'', was filled with "there, happy now?" moments, like [[Doing in the Wizard]] of Vamp's unexplained powers in a deliberately unsatisfying way. |

*** Kojima probably doesn't help (or hurt, whichever he actually wants) his case that while the scripting of the games has various degrees of [[Creator Backlash]], the actual design and mechanics of the game are always top-notch. Good games are good games no matter what the story is. |

* Sqij for the [[ZX Spectrum]] was programmed by a programmer contractually obligated to deliver another game before his contract expired. In response he attempted to make a game so quickly without quality control that it would never be publish while still fulfilling his contract. They published it anyways despite the game not working unless you hacked the memory to disable caps lock and being barely playable if you did all that. |
