Games of the Year - Worst

This is my list of the top 10 worst games I played this year, that came out this year. Keep in mind I'm not basing this off the worst quality of games I played this year. I'm basing this off the games that came out this year, that I played, and had a terrible time with it.

Once again, these are in no order.

• Wii Music: This was one of the games I had sent to me for review purposes that I didn't request. It turned out to hardly even be a game. Wii Music was mainly a music player that allowed you to make some noise in tune if you wished. I had quite a hard time playing this as it was no fun at all and I kept thinking I wasn't playing enough each time I went back to it. But the truth was that there was just nothing to this game.
• Shaun White Snowboarding: Most people stated that I was wrong when calling this game garbage, but I could never see why. I felt the controls were awful and the overall game play was dumb. It was a pain to come back to and I almost hated having to go through it.
• Guitar Hero: Aerosmith: I don't like Aerosmith and most of the other bands' songs in the game were pretty dumb. I could see this being a good game if you really like Aerosmith, I could even see myself really liking a game like this if the band was one I really liked. I don't want to have to see how Aerosmith emerged as a band and some of the band members look awful as game characters. I will give it this though: having Dream Police as the opening song was the best idea.
• Soulcalibur 4: I enjoyed the first and second games in this series but hated the last two. The third was a huge dissapointment and this just went way too far. There was just too many ridiculous aspects to this game to make me take it seriously at all.
• Dash of Destruction: So I like this game because it's free and way easy points. So easy, it's the Avatar of 2008 in my opinion. I just didn't like this game overall because it almost got tedious at points. The developer tried to make it a challenge which was weird since I can't see anyone actually wanting to play this for real.
• Lost Odyssey: This game was actually good from the normal review stand point but I just found it incredibly boring. I felt it had no flavor and almost seems like it was too "mature" for RPGs. Then again that could just be what it was trying to go for. However, as a huge fan of crazy JRPGs, this didn't do it for me.
• Lost: Via Domus: If this was at all a good game, it would have been better as a point and click PC adventure game. Overall it doesn't fit with the plot too well and if you are an actual fan of the show, you won't want to play this. It does however have an easy 1000 to collect.
• Bully Scholarship Edition: This was fun and I only played it because it had some easy achievements. It's like a kids' version of the Grand Theft Auto series, so mainly more kid friendly. I don't really like those kinds of sand box games and this just added to my dislike for them. The general public found this to be a good game though.
• Patapon: I'm glad this game is only being sold for a budget price. It had the issue where you needed to almost level up after every mission in order to level up. The difficulty was just too high I found. It wasn't too bad though, so it's a stretch to put it on here.
• Midnight Club: LA: This game was that bad, it was the difficulty that completely threw me off. Now I wouldn't say I'm the best arcade racer player there is, but I wouldn't say I'm the worst either. I quite like arcade racers and this just expected too much of the player. It also suffered from the computer players getting the biggest speed boosts ever when they weren't in first place. And if you ever crashed during a race, you can kiss first place good bye.

Coming up next will be my list of biggest dissapointments, which you will see a few games from here in there, and then the games I'm most looking forward to playing that came out in '08.
