Including Wii Play on this list is really dumb. Given that (in the UK, for example) the package costs £3 more than a Wiimote on its own, you're getting the whole game for less than the price of a beer. The Wii has far too many collections of shit mini-game collections which sell for ten times that amount, which could and should be fairly criticised. But Wii Play is what it is - a fun collection of wii-mote demos which are as near to free as makes no difference. As such, it seems really out of place on this list.

Interesting read, but the author clearly has a fetish for all things turd-related.

Damn it. I had 12 of these. GR Fifa Street 1 was actually quite good in my opinion

I'm pretty sure Fantastic Four only made the list because BestBuy and Futureshop were giving copies away with Halo 3 pre-orders.

I'm pretty sure the only reason Fantastic Four made the list was because BestBuy and Futureshop were giving it away free with every Halo 3 pre-order. I traded mine in at EB Games for my next game purchase.

The whole reason wii play was on the list is because it comes with a wiimote. So the game itself only costs $10. Out of all the games in wii play, i only enjoyed billiards and tanks. So yeah, i got my moneys worth i think.

Just to add on to what I said earlier about Revenge of the Sith, think of it this way. At least it's not The Force Unleashed.

Corsair89, what you call "ignorant casual gamers" are people who simply enjoy casual games. There's no need to hate them. Don't be an elitist.

I don't own any of these, but still own Diddy Kong Racing on the N64. Not a bad game at all... ...But it makes you repeat that game backwards after you think you've fucking finished it.

Woah now hold on there. I actually think Revenge of the Sith was actually a decent game. Trust me, it's not the worst movie tie in, as evidenced by another entry on your list.

@cwf: That's the only reason that Wii Play has sold so well and it annoys me. We should call it a Wii Remote with a free Wii Play rather than the other way around. That would be more accurate but then Nintendo couldn't tout successful video game sales figures on that title. Uh... ReCAPTCHA: Frozen scum
