Out of newer games, I absolutely hate Stern Star Wars. I hate the way it looks, I hate the rules, I hate how drain happy it is, I hate how it uses the action button. Easily one of the worst and most disappointing games of the last few years.

I found Rob Zombie to be very amateurish. I get why, but it's hard to look at that game in a bank and think its on the same level. I've flipped a Dominoes and thought it was boring, but fine. I was mildly surprised at Alice Cooper. I wasn't in love with it, but I was extremely impressed by the quality improvement. Some of the shots are bad though.

I was excited to try a multimorphic and thought it had a few interesting ideas, but is overall a total dud. I played maybe four games and I think I've had my fill for life.

Haven't played a Houdini yet, but my expectations are very low.

Worst game of all time? I humbly propose Big Ben

Quoted from Rarehero:

Scientific fact: Ghostbusters. Terribly designed unplayable anti-fun.
End thread.

Ghostbusters for fun? Not so bad

Ghostbusters in a tournament? Burn it

Quoted from chuckwurt:

But instead it’s shoot the upper playfield, hit the targets up there. That’s it.

I feel like you just described most games with a upper playfield. I think most games with prominent upper playfields are bad. It shrinks the game into two small areas, and you rather just stay in the upper. It makes the whole game feel cramped. Hot take: Black Knight is overrated AF

I actually like Farfalla for trying to be interesting and the art is killer.

Quoted from dothedoo:

I don't think BK is overrated at all.
You gotta remember....this is 1980, when getting multiball was the ultimate achievement. There were no games with an upper level, no games with magna save, no games with special rules during multiball, no games with a bonus ball and I don't remember any games before this with multiball playfield multipliers.
This game offered so much more than its competition back in the day.

I respect it for its historical contributions and it certainly had some neat ideas. I still think people overrate it and the game quickly becomes, get to the upper playfield, lock a ball, repeat.

Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

Agreed. That guy is high. Whoa Nellie is perfect.
Turds I've played off the top of my head include SF2, Stern SW, Wrestlemania, Hurricane,

Hurricane is such a waste of a great Python Anghelo art package. I owned one for a year and was glad to see it leave. The terrible music is still stuck in my head somehow.
