Ok, so what's the biggest turd that you've played until the credits rolled? It doesn't count if you were just a little kid and couldn't understand crap from quality though. I want to know about the times you finished a game that you knew was terrible from the moment you started. Also, try to leave out the blatant trolling responses like Halo or The Wind Waker...we all know that those aren't terrible games.
I think my pick would be Turok 3 on the Nintendo 64. I was really hyped for the game, and I avoided much info about it leading up to the release. I skipped classes the day the game came out, dropped by a local game store, and dropped $70 on it before rushing home to play. I even had a few friends drop by to check it out with me. It wasn't even 10 minutes into the game before I knew it was a total crapfest. I willed myself to finish the game over the next few days before I traded it in at a used game store (R.I.P. Game Peddler) for credit toward GameBoy Color games. I just couldn't ever get over how bad the game had turned out. I rarely, I mean VERY rarely finish a crappy game, but I was so crushed that I kept playing to see if there was some itty bitty nugget of goodness buried in the steaming pile of digital feces. There wasn't.
