20 WORST Games of 2017
There was a decent flow of good quality games that released in 2017: Atlus took players to JRPG heaven in Persona 5, run and gun representative Cuphead charmed with its difficulty and 1930s cartoon aesthetic, and Breath of the Wild was hailed as a masterpiece.
But of course, a few standout titles brought the momentum to a screeching halt.
Some stumbled over narrative design choices. Others fell apart due to poor gameplay, turned into glitchfests, or lost their way in confusing open-world labyrinths. Those qualities earned them a spot on our list, but what were your most rage-inducing games in 2017? Leave us a comment below.
