Flatout 3

The original Faltout was a fantastically wild racing game with impressive car destruction physics. The second game was even better providing an even better experience. But the third game saw the original developer leave the series and things went downhill quickly.

Fans hate everything about it and have managed to tag the game on Steam under "psychological horror" because of the sense of dread it brings players who spent money on it.

Steam Rating: Overwhelmingly Negative (1,587)

Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight

EA is not the most well-loved of publishers in the gaming world. RTS fans have their own issues after the company bought of Westwood Studios, the makers of the legendary Command & Conquer series.

The system that has come to define the series has been changed and adds a grinding element that left fans with a bad taste in their mouth. Players say the game is more of a tug of war style game, and not a RTS that the series helped to define.

Steam Rating: Overwhelmingly Negative (1,459)

Guardians of Middle-earth

MOBAs are huge money-makers with an insane amount of people playing. Just head over to Twitch or YouTube's gaming section and see for yourself. So when the Lord of the Rings series decided to take a stab at the genre it made sense.

But not even the wealth of recognizable characters could save this poor man's MOBA. The bugs and claims of Pay-to-Win killed the experience and what's worse is that the game is still being sold, even though the servers are dead.

Steam Rating: Mostly Negative (370)

Airport Simulator 2014

With a name like Airport Simulator, you'd figure you'd be simulating the running on and airport. You don't get to do that here, instead, you just move helper vehicles to airplanes. You have no influence over anything else that is happening, or going on at your airport.

It's essentially a clicker game that costs you money. The game has nothing to do with running an airport, rather, you are telling the people that clean the plane, to, well, clean the plane. Baggage handler simulator would be a more accurate title.

Steam Rating: Very Negative (499)

5

Umbrella Corps

You knew things were bad with Umbrella Corps when Capcom dropped the Resident Evil moniker from the games title as to not damage the series before it released. The game itself is a complete mess with complaints that hitting someone with the butt of your gun doing more damage than the axe known as The Brainer.

The worst problem is that the game is still for sale, but it's an online only title. This wouldn't be a huge problem, but the developers never cared to add support for bots, even though there are zombies in the stages, so prepare to wait upwards of 20 minutes for a single match. Add in a lack of optimization options and this is one title to avoid.

Steam Rating: Mostly Negative (607)

Deus Ex: The Fall

Quickest way to piss of PC gamers is to stick a mobile game on Steam . Even worse is not doing anything to make it work better on the PC. Deus Ex: The Fall is one such title as it feels like nothing more than a simple port of an unfinished mobile game.

The episodic nature of the game was lost and the team did very little of make it work on PC. You know, a phone game actually working worse on high-end PCs. Mouse clicking is buggy with things simply not registering. The graphics weren't bumped up in quality in this port and you have only a single save slot to work with. This game gives Deus Ex a bad name.

Steam Rating: Mostly Negative (2,019)

Day One : Garry's Incident

There is nothing worse than a terrible game coming from a pretty cool concept. You play as a stranded pilot that has to to everything to survive. Unfortunately, the game is so broken that you can;t do much of anything, let alone have any fun.

The animation is extremely limited, there are invisible walls across what should be an open island, and the game even manges to lag, even though this is only a single player title. Add in enoug bugs to drive anyone crazy and its no wonder this title sits so low on the Steam ratings list.

Steam Rating: Overwhelmingly Negative (1,572)

Agricultural Simulator 2013 Steam Edition

It seems to be a trend that if it has simulator in the title, odds are you going to be getting a lemon. Agricultural Simulator 2013 Steam Edition is one such a lemon that has so many issues, it's a wonder how it even got released on Steam. Users in the comments have even requested that every report the game as "Broken" on the store page.

Users are lucky to even get the game running, even on high-end computers of the time. A lot of the game feels unfinished, with many assets being recycled from previous titles in the series. And because the game wont sync achievements, there isn't is no way to complete the game if that's your cup of tea.

Steam Rating: Mostly Negative (358)

RollerCoaster Tycoon World

Maybe its better if developers and studios just leave classic series be. RollerCoaster Tycoon World should have been an amazing game, but it's anything but. A laggy experience kills any fun that can be had, and that's if you're lucky enough to get it to run without crashing.

Users complain that the developer should be addressing bugs instead of releasing DLC for what many say is an already broken game. User generated content has issues loading, if it loads at all, and if it does, be ready for the game to eat up all your resources until you crash out.

Steam Rating: Mostly Negative (2,295)

10

Postal III

The Postal series has always lived off of its shock value, but the second game in the series was also a fun experience that messed with the FPS genre at the time of its release. Postal III is strange because the game goes third-person, which is about the nicest thing I can say about the game. Everything else is simply broken, ugly, and devoid of discernible humor.

The original developers outsourced the game to a Russian studio and everything turned to crap pretty quick. Running With Scissors, the original developers, even told people not to buy the game and disowned the project entirely. Do yourself a favor and avoid this borderline-broken title.
