Tell Us Dammit: What Is The Worst Game You’ve Ever Bought?

We’ve all bought stinkers. Mostly I bought them as a kid because I had nothing to go on except the bloody picture on the box, especially on the Spectrum when I was super young. But what is the worst game you’ve ever actually spent money on?

I remember spending a whole heap of money, like 50 pounds ($80-$90AU) on an imported Sonic Blastman for the SNES. It was like a sidescrolling beat ’em up. Not the cool punching arcade game. That was a brutal decision.

I bought a whole heap of terrible licensed games for the Spectrum, like Back to the Future. That was brutal and I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing.

What are some of the worst games you’ve ever bought?
