- Alien: Isolation (5.9) If this was called Call Of Duty: Alien Isolation, it would be a solid 10/10. Best horror game of all time. Deserve 9-10. This was great though...
- Call of Duty: Black Ops III (9.2) This shows how biased IGN are with Call of Duty they gave DOOM (2016) a lower rating than this awful game and yet this game gets a 9.2 for what this game is awful and is very undeserving of that rating because this game has loads of flaws that overway the positives if I were to rate this game id give it a 4.5.
- Battlefield Hardline (8.0) Battefield is the same stupid, hard shooter that it is. This deserves a like a 4!
- Sonic Lost World (5.8) Green hill again?! The first levels were pretty entertaining but until that it just gets boring. It looks like a recreation of Sonic Xtreme.
- From games we've called bad to the one we described as unbearable, these are the stinkers you really should avoid.

2023 has been full of big name games making big splashes, from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to Baldur’s Gate 3 to… Redfall. That’s right, while this year might have had some huge hits, it was also one full of truly eye-popping misses – in fact, IGN published more game reviews with a 4 out of 10 score or below in 2023 than any year since we switched to the 10-point scale by more than double, including our first 1 in about a decade. High highs were coupled with low lows, and all those nostalgic remakes and sequels came alongside a different sort of blast from the past thanks to a slew of underwhelming licensed games, be that The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, Skull Island: Rise of Kong, or The Walking Dead: Destinies.
As someone who considers themself an action game buff, Wanted: Dead let me down on just about every front. Its combat may be fun for a few hours, but eventually I realized that it was just a pool of shallow water to splash around in. The fights never evolved in any interesting or meaningful way, the minimal enemy variety never challenged me to chan...
Crime Boss: Rockay City is an overly ambitious air ball on all fronts, from its sloppy moment-to-moment gameplay to its largely abysmal voice acting – the worst of which sound like single takes spliced in with mistakes intact. There’s an earnestness with which Crime Boss has been put together that I do admire – as a kind of direct-to-VHS knockoff o...
Redfall is a bafflingly bad time across the board, whether playing solo or with a friend or three suffering alongside you. That it comes in the wake of Arkane’s excellent Deathloop, the enduringly beloved Prey, and the acclaimed Dishonored series honestly beggars belief. Its performance on Xbox Series X is regularly dire, plagued with pop-in, stutt...
The Lord of the Rings: Gollum fails to provide a satisfying answer to the big Why’s. Why, of all the interesting characters in The Lord of the Rings lore, would anyone want to play an entire game as Gollum? Why would one trade the solid action of prior games in this universe for busywork, uninspired and frustrating platforming, and bad stealth? It’...
Everybody 1-2-Switch is a tedious and surprisingly small catalog of unoriginal and mostly poorly designed minigames that’s guaranteed to bring any party grinding to a halt. Even with a few interesting ideas, like Joy-Con hide and seek or the color scavenger-hunting modes, there are simply too few options to keep a group’s attention for one game, mu...
With the exception of the rich environmental detail to be found in its sinister underworld setting, Unholy otherwise offers precious little to praise. It’s not scary enough to succeed as a horror story, its controls are too clumsy to provide a satisfying stealth experience, and its enemy and puzzle variety are too limited to make any part of the jo...
Any way you look at it, whether it’s an RPG, a real-time strategy game, or a colony sim, Gord is as miserable as its downtrodden villagers. Other games are bad because they aim too high, attempt too much, and fall down on their own merits. They are at the very least hoisted on their own petard, doing us the favor of digging their own grave or being...
We haven’t quite been waiting 100 years for an Avatar game that lives up to the potential of the show, but it’s certainly beginning to feel that way after playing Avatar: The Last Airbender - Quest for Balance. This half-baked and wildly inconsistent retelling of the excellent TV series shows the promise of what an Avatar game could maybe be, but a...

- Worst: Sega Saturn: Crypt Killer (1/10) This shooter is a horror game described as “trying too hard to be a Virtua Cop style light-gun shooter.” The game is slated for being “a pathetic, mindless shooter,” and the gameplay is the main thing under fire.
- Worst: PC: NRA Varmint Hunter (1/10) Putting aside the subject matter for a moment, the reviewer still finds this one of the worst games ever. This appears due to simplistic and dull mechanics including the inability to move.
- Best: Game Boy Color: Mario Golf (10/10) This “must have” title for the Game Boy Color is a fun and quirky golf game featuring Mario. While the Mario franchise has had some misfires this golf game is not one of them.
- Worst: Mobile: Fury Of The Hulk (1/10) The genre of this game alone is enough to see why it’s described as a “cheap cash-in cellphone game.” It’s a puzzle game.
