honestly, i first heard of it from the Jerma985 Stream, it was hilarious! especially when like 3 characters had the names of Family Guy characters, impossible to take seriously!

if i can get the proper CD setup, i'll burn some of the worst games and post which one was worst imo.

Tryna muster a playthrough alongside this YT. What's awesome is I requested codes in GameHacking.org Discord and wish granted! Movement is dreadful

There is a CDI I held down from way back TiZ if anyone interested


Never heard of it, after watching some play through I think this is going to be my next Dreamcast game, do anyone know if there is an English translation?

Windows CE has gripped Water Town with it's high volume soundtrack & dodgy action.

Bigger Budget & better Development Team this might had topped Fighting Force 2.

update on this, this might take me awhile. i might start around Feb-Mar 2024 at the earliest. Which should also give me enough time to see if anybody else says anything but personally from experience with emulators, worst one i've played is GTA2. I did a review on that actually but TL;DR its a really REALLY rushed port of a decent game but it sucks the life out of you when you try to enjoy it. At least The Ring: Terrors Realm is funny.

BUT NO MORE MESSING ABOUT, when the time comes i will write down every single entry here and try them myself on CD-Rs and perhaps for extra measures, try the GDIs on Flycast. I'll review them here when i'm done. See you in 2024.

Most of the worst games that I can remember were the lazy ports of PC or PSX games as they were just ported over with little to no improvements, some already a few years old by the time they came to the Dreamcast. Spirit of Speed 1937 springs to mind but there were others just as bad. Graphics and sound were usually quite limited, hardly pushing the hardware, and many had poor controls. I think it's fair to say most of the best games were those developed in house by Sega due to the Naomi architecture used in the arcade.

Actually there are a lot of half-baked games but have sence, or they are games rushed from launch or discarded because of the abrupt dead of the system.
