Games that you should only buy if you hate the person that you're buying for. Otherwise beware! Stay clear. Like don't even look at the box, no matter how pretty the box may look, the goods inside are simply not worth two cents.

Need For Speed: High Stakes
Electronic Arts' Need For Speed: High Stakes is a franchise game. It's a sequel in the long-lived Need for Speed series, and it sells by the reputation of previous games in the series, not by quality. With further junk like High Stakes, the Need for Speed series is going to be left in the slow lane of sales. The high-point of this trash game are the flashy but styleless graphics. The low point is the rest of the game.

Space Bunnies Must Die!
This Tomb Raider 'boobalike' is pure and simple the worst of its kind. Cheesy graphics, woeful controls and absolutely dire gameplay. How lame. Steer VERY clear of this one. No boob job could ever give this game its saving grace. Run away. We can't imagine this one being knocked off of the top spot unless a sequel comes out…

Wargasm
What a crap name. The game is even worse. DID can and have done a lot better. There's very little saving grace to this 3D combat game. Luckily, we've not seen it take up to much shelf space at EB or Best Buy, but should you see it- run and duck for cover. Truly abysmal.

Vigilance
SegaSoft's 3D first person 'army' shooter attempts to beat up SpecOps and Delta Force but fails miserably. The controls are truly awful, the physics are ropy and the graphics engine is sub-standard. Need I say more? Try Delta Force or indeed SpecOps but for the sake of you own lives duck and run for cover when you spot Vigilance. No change there then eh? Can it last as long as Brian Adams it the question?

House of the Dead
Piss poor arcade port. No surprises they're then eh? Another SegaSoft total write off and another dodgy arcade port bites the dust. Dull textures very poor mouse control (no invert mouse!) and horrendous sound effects make this one a game to avoid.

Requiem: Avenging Angel
With a plethora of 3D first person shooters currently available there are really only two categories. There are titles that simply grab you such as Half-Life and there are those that make you scratch your head and wonder why anyone bothered (the second being the larger of the two). Requiem falls into the second category. Poor level design coupled with a lackluster 3D engine doesn't help its cause either. Does the world really need a sequel (which is being talked about)?
