gamerevolutions.com's 50 worst videogame names ever
 
http://www.gamerevolution.com/feature/worst_names





 

Silhouette Mirage: Reprogrammed Hope
Palette timid waffle.


Platform : Playstation, Saturn
Publisher : Working Designs
Year : 1999

We love the random word generator, too! Opted congestion substances source! Think wind recorder disrupt!







 

Iggy's Reckin' Balls
He sure is and they sure are.


Platform : N64
Publisher : Acclaim
Year : 1998

Iggy the ball stars in this oddly misspelled racing game. We're just glad he's not "wreckin" balls, because that sounds terribly painful.






 

Booby Kids
I dare you to squeeze their cheeks.


Platforms : NES
Publisher : Nihon Busson
Year : 1987

Though the Japanese are traditionally obsessed with panties, they switched gears in this top-down action romp. Should have been subtitled Tits for Tots.






 

Yo! Noid
Avoid the Noid.


Platforms : NES, Arcade
Publisher : Capcom
Year : 1990

Plenty of companies have used video games as thinly veiled advertising vehicles. Chester Cheetah had two games, and those talking M&M's had four. But none had a title as stupid as this one from the doomed Domino's Pizza mascot.

OOPS gamerevolution not gamerevolutions

It's a shame the MSX never became widely available in the US. I could have easily pictured a top 10 position for "Super Rambo Special"... not Rambo, not Super Rambo, but Super Rambo Special.

Irritating Stick!
No One can Stop Mr.Domino!

jon boy 11.07.2006 06:46 PM

irritating sticj is a good name of a band. at least a song then.

i so played yo! noid back in the day, i think i borrowed it once or i rented it. worst marketing campaign ever...i'm surprised the taco bell chihuahua got so much shit yet it was universally well known, unlike the noid.

Awesome Possum Kicks Dr. Machino's Butt!
Fun fact: This is one of the first games to actually use digitized voice. Not so fun fact: Here's a dialogue snippet: Awesome Possum: "I'm awesome!"
Dr. Machino: "You’re not so awesome!"

that just rules

That Noid game was actually pretty fun even though it was hard as hell.
