The PS2 is very close to being one year old now, and has seen release to a lot of stunning games: Gran Turismo 3 to name one. And before the end of the year, even more stunning games are set to be released, such as the brilliant Devil May Cry.
But, with every console, comes the bad games, the games that really don't do a console justice. The PS2 is no different, with some truly bad games that really make the PS2 look shoddy and relly shows it up.
Now, for me, there have been quite a few games that fit into this category.
The first one(s), are the Army Men games. Why oh why did they bother. I don't remember any previous Army men game that was actually any good. These game really make the PS2 look bad. You'd think that 3DO would have been able to put the power of the PS2 to better use.
3DO did have a crack at other games, namely the two World Destruction League games. The first on released, WDL: Thunder Tanks wasn't too bad and had a good multiplayer mode, but the second, WDL: Warjets was just abismal. It looked like a Playstation title and played really really bad.
And how about those Might and Magic games. Once again we have games that make the PS2 look bad, and with the threat of the new 128-bit console looming, it doesn't really help now does it.
And there was a game that I didn't even know was being released, and I know why they didn't want us to know. The name is The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas. If you thought the film was bad, just play this. Yabba Yabba don't - ever buy this.
There are probably some more of these bad, bad games available, nicking your hard money in order to disappoint you.
Which of the PS2's currently available titles did you find ulimately tedious and feel that it makes the PS2 look bad?

can't think of any appauling games, the army ones maybe and flintstones seem bad, oh the gift and portal runner look poor also but otherwise we're in the clear :-)
Yeah, that does look bad, along with Maximo and Flinstones racing.
I havent really played any bad games as yet - However the demo of Driven was apalling I thought!!
