Where's Waldo isn't a bad game. It's freakin' Where's Waldo. You can't expect a lot out of something like that. :P

LOL. While there is some truth to that. The graphics made it impossible to tell Waldo from the fake Waldos. Then there is a level that was a black screen. It took place in a cave or something. But seriously, you had to find Waldo on a black screen.

Was going to add Mr. Mosquito as a weird (but *not* bad one:) - but, I *think* it only ever had a PS2 release...anyone else played it?

Here's another weird but not terrible game - Mad Maestro/Bravo Music. You have to conduct a cartoon orchestra! Had a lot of fun playing that one when it came out :)

I owned it at one point, I couldn't get the hang of the pressure-sensitive controls. :(

Mr Mosquito has always been an interesting concept to me maybe this thread will push me to finally pick it up.

I think I got that one, like...18 - 24 months ago from someone on Amazon.

Back then, I got it mint/c.i.b. for ~$15 - $20...unless it has become harder to find since then - you should be able to pick a copy up pretty easily & cheaply :)

If all you want is just the disc to play the game...you might be able to find one for ~$5.00!

Chiller and splatterhouse come to mind for horror games, and of course, shadowgate.

Dreadful games?  Perhaps we should crossreference this thread with the "This game SUCKS" thread.

I came here to post Taboo: The Sixth Sense, but I got beat to the punch.

Ooh!  Wayne's World for NES was a confusing mess...

What about Psychic Detective for the PS1? I watched a buddy play this and he loved it, cause it was so bad. Me on the other hand, just wanted to walk over to the PS1 and turn the console off.


Edit, whoops. I just say that PS1 isn't on your list... ha
