It doesnt necasarily have to be a bad game but what is the most boring game you have ever played??

I actually found Shadowman on the N64 to be a pretty good game but at the same time it was so boring just plodding back and forth the whole time - The story was great but it took forever to complete and seemed a whole waste of time - Nothing was satisfying about it!!
Populous - Another really boring title, there again I never knew how to play it properly!!

What do you think??

The Sims is a great game but I will admit it gets very boring so you should liven it up a bit more by finding better ways to kill people :)

I believe at some point nearly ever game will become boring for the gamer and they toss it away but then sooner or later they retrieve it and then enjoy it again.

Order of shadowmans

N64
PC
Dreamcast
PSX

I think shadowman 2econd coming is going to be really good, but it is having problems at the mo.

But the PSX version is bad, and half way though it gets slow, but then picks up again. I think i wont get all the dark soals (there's 124 or 125 of them! i know, it's more than it says, but acclaim put themm in) but the game is brillent when you fight all the killers!

Chapionship manager series. I found they were quite enjoyable right the way through but at the end all of the numbers and organising just got a bit boring towards the end.

Shadowman is alright but you got to admit it does get boring about half way through!! As for the PSOne version, I think one magazine rated it at 8% - That just about says it all!! However I have high hopes for Shadowman 2 on PS2 - That is shaping up rather well and should be a title worth getting!!

Management type games (Championship manager, the sims etc.) do seem to get a bit boring!!!

The Sims anyone?

I found it to be mildly entertaining to begin with, but then it got extremely boring. How interesting can it be watching a group of computer generated people living their daily lives?

After the obvious mischief I caused, it was just another bad purchase on my behalf.
