    I have had the displeasure of playing the two worst video game of all time. E.T. The Extra-Terestrial and Custers Revenge. Both were Atari games released in 1982.

      Custer’s Revenge is bad, but I’m not sure it’s really the kind of bad OP was talking to, like when you think of ET.

        I feel like if it was just anybody doing it, that would actually be somewhat better. The title implies Custer earned it, which is messed up in multiple ways.

      You might be interested in the work of this hobbyist who updated Atari’s ET game to fix many of its biggest faults by decompiling the game and patching it.

      When I was a kid I bought an Atari with the cartridge holder stand for it and a ton of games for $5. ET was fucking awful, but there were a few gems in the collection.

      NES Where’s Waldo was pretty bad too especially for fans of the books.

      There was a helicopter shooting game that somehow didn’t really work with the light gun too, but I forget the name.
