With games such as mario all stars and the ob being considered some of the best value in gaming, what do you think is the worst(Not the system).

for me

ET:QW for the console- IT was 20 dollars for the pc and hed better controls, was less buggy ,had more people playing on it, and had some more functionality and you still had to pay 60 dollars for the console version.

EA Mac games- For 50 dollars you get a crappy port of bf2142 that is 20 dollars on the pc and comes with northern strike. Jobs happily anounced them and what they brought was just meh.

You?

I would say the worst value is paying full price for a game and beating it too soon. For me, I payed the full for CoD5, and I beat it the following morning. I know for some people that would be the end of it (although I tend to play my games for longer, EX: Achievements, hidden characters, etc).

Dang I'd love to play some COD5, how'd you get it :P?

But what about online, I feel COD4 was one of the best values this gen. I've spent 72+ hours online plus like 5 hours on the campaign (Most time spent with a game this gen :D)

Pokemon Snap. It's about 2 hours long, and there's no reward for playing through it and improving your photo scores. Just photos that you could print out at Blockbuster. For money.

How weak.

I still like ET:QW for the 360.

Anyway... it definately has to be Steel Batallion for the XBox. It was fun, but not $200 fun!

The PSP. Games cost way to much and 95% are no handheld friendly. You also cannot rent PSP games. Not here anwyay.

Yet, if I'm not mistaken, in another thread you said that free games are the best value in the industry.

I think the whole tournament FPS genre represents bad value. I mean when games like Halo and Call of Duty 4 give you awesome campaigns and then have great multiplayer on it as well. Heck, Doom had a great single-player and solid multi-player so in many ways tournament FPS's are a step back in terms of value.

Wii Play. $10.00 spent on a gimmicky mini-game collection, $50.00 spent on a gimmicky controller.

Any game that relies on collecting stuff for replayability. I don't want to have to replay levels 18 times to unlock something completely pointless. Which usually means that you complete the game once and it lasts about 2 hours.

Also all the Warioware games, whilst fun, are ridiculously short, like you can complete them in 2 hours. I always rent them now.

Most PS3 games ..Uncharted , Heavenly Sword , Ratchet and Clank etc. You beat it once and thats it ...no reason to play it again b/c you will get bored most likely .ANd they are pretty short too.
