Worst games you have 100% achievements/trophies

Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust

I had to give up on that game. It was so horrible in every conceivable way that it actually soured me against games for a little while.

My most unbearable platinums are:
CSI: Fatal Conspiracy
LA Noire
Iron Man 2
Dark Void
Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard

Also boring/bad:
Assassin's Creed: Revelations
Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One
Alone in the Dark: Inferno
 
I suppose Kung Fu Panda because I used cheats to get all the achievements; the game itself was pretty decent. Followed by Need for Speed: Most Wanted (the original one by EA Black Box) because it was an easy 1000G in that all you had to do was play through the game and acquire the car of every rival (that was a bit annoying admittedly since I would have to re-do Most Wanted races if I didn't get the car).

The worst offender has got to be Call of Duty 4 (yes, I've heard that World at War on Veteran is much worse as well as the earlier COD's that don't have regenerating health; I'll pass on those games thank you very much). Getting all the achievements in that damn game has got the most frustrating thing I've ever done in ages. There were so many moments where I was close to slamming my controller (thankfully I value them enough that I didn't). I'm never doing something like that again as much I love unlocking achievements.
 
FF 13-2. Just because only a few were missing. I don't really care for trophies, just had nothing else to play.
And my only other platinum: Tekken 6. Because it was done just by playing normally lol.

Came here to post this exact fucking game. I don't know why I 100%'d it, I just had to. I even paid $.99 for the DLC because the hilarity of discovering that I could completely break the game on EVERY LEVEL and have leaderboard scores that shouldn't even be possible made the dollar worth paying.

Actually you don't have to get the rival cars, just beat them.
 
Well, I have:
Harm's Way
Doritos: Dash of Destruction
Lollipop Chainsaw
Telltale's The Walking Dead

So...DoD was pretty bad. I loved lollipop but that gondola game and collecting the wrappers were bad enough to almost surpass DoD.
 
I don't even have 100% achievements for my favorite games.
 
Flower. Absolutely terrible and the only reason I have all the trophies is because I kept playing in an attempt to figure out why people like it.

Now if we restrict it to retail games it would be Ni no Kuni. Not that it's a terrible game I just don't have many games with 100% trophies/achievements.
 
Samurai Shodown Sen

Oddly enough, since I was motivated to get the 1000g, I ended loving the game, not in a sense of ''what a good game'' but more in the sense that it will always had a place in my heart
 
Sonic Unleashed - The game isn't horrible by any means, the werehog levels went a bit too long when you aren't very strong. Daytime levels are fun.
 
Your favorite game by your favorite company, derp.

Duke Nukem probably by most peoples standards. I didn't really hate it until doing the turrent sections on the difficult/insane run.

Star Ocean: The Last Hope

/clap - Although I like the game more than most, its still an incredible time sink.
 
I only have a handful. Uncharted 2, Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, and The Walking Dead. I enjoyed my time with each of them but I think if I had to pick the one I least liked I would go with Uncharted 2. I finished it on normal and for all intents and purposes I was done with the game but I forced myself to go through the higher difficulties, find all those stupid treasure pieces and sit at the online lobby thing for who knows how long waiting to find the one person in the world wanting to play the co-op segment.
 
Resistance: Burning Skies

It wasn't that bad honestly, but it's easily my worst one. I only have it because one playthrough gives you the platinum.
 
The Force Unleashed, I guess.

I don't have 100% because of the DLC, but I do have the platinum. Bleh.

I also have this one, but I found Sonic a lot more enjoyable than Star Wars.
 
Viking was pretty bad, so probably that, though it was fun enough to finish. I don't bother to finish games if they're too bad to enjoy.
 
Alone in the Dark: Inferno and Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock.

In my defense I got them for real cheap and they are both pretty short games but goddamn do they suck.

I went with a friend to rent a 360 game ... and we rented banjo and my friend wanted to rent this one.

After we got the achievements we sit down and we had a huge talk about adiction.

He now owns a 3DS
 
AMY. (I can't seem to avoid mentioning this game...)

Not too hard to get 100%, just had to play through the game on Hard... which made an already miserable experience even worse, which resulted in more suffering on my part.
 
Call of Duty fans.

Have you ever sat playing though levels with your laptop/computer open to a guide showing the locations of the utterly pointless hidden Intel packages, just for the achievement.
 
Apparently I've played 200 games with trophies and have only gotten 100% of the trophies in 26 of them.

The only game I've 100%-ed that I'd consider "bad" is the X-Men Arcade game. It wasn't hard to do.

I don't normally go for trophies I don't enjoy but X-Men Arcade's trophies were so easy that it wasn't a big deal.
 
For me, it was Lollipop Chainsaw. I bought it used for $11 and thought that it might be a fun game to platinum. Nope, I was wrong. I felt that the control input lagged and caused me to spend several hours to get the 100%. I raged at least two hours on the "No Fear Of Heights" trophy. This game is fun if you don't worry about the achievements/trophies and just spend your time just killing zombies.
 
I never ever ever am going to bother getting ANY trophies that require me to do dumb stuff that I do not enjoy doing. Now if you enjoy playing crap games and getting trophies/cheevos than great! Or even playing great games with crap trophies than cool. But the 100% to me just is not worth it anymore unless it is fun.

So the worst games I can remember-- actually let me look at the list...

Dead Rising 2 is the worst offender. Not that bad of game really but the kill 72,000 zombies one was horrible. I was horrible for doing it lol.
 
Madden 10 surprisingly, but I guess it makes sense that I only replay the hell out of most of the good games.

Runner ups would be UT3 or any of the CoD games up to MW2
 
Dragon Ball Z budokai HD.

Not necessarily a bad game (Frankly #3 is the best DBZ game IMO) but it is still a fighting game.

Funny story about that...I did it for MW1. MW1 had cheats that you unlocked by collecting Intel Packs. Achievements were disabled if you had any of the "Cheats" enabled (Mainly just visual filters if I recall.

I stupidly forgot that I had a filter turned on when getting the last package. Once you have picked up a package it permanently disappears.

No cheevo for me :(

I can laugh about it now though.
 
Darkest of Days. Easily the worst game I have 100% this gen.

Other notables I found to be awful:
Any CSI game.
NCIS
Terminator Salvation
Sherlock Holmes vs Jack the Ripper

Huh? Everything I've heard about Just Cause 2 sounds like it's a lot of fun. I got it from PS Plus and while I haven't played it yet, I intended to, maybe soon. What didn't you like about it? Seriously, if it'll be a waste of my time I won't bother.

Just Cause 2 is a crazy fun game. Unfortunately, when you get down to actually playing the game (clearing out bases, finding the hidden collectibles) that's when the game really shows it's true colors. The enemies are relentless (this is very evident on higher difficulties) and just the amount of stuff in the game is enormous. I am kind of ashamed that I spent so much time getting that 75% completion achievement, because doing 1% of work generally felt like 1 hour. Of doing the same shit, over and over.

Otherwise, the sandbox is so much fun to dick around in, so I am conflicted.

That achievement is murder. Those enemy patterns are so random, but I am pretty proud of that achievement haha.


Anyways, I don't see any games that I 1000/1000 that i'm truly ashamed of, maybe Genesis mega collection, since it was pretty easy and I didn't really like the quality of the ports (so I just milked the game for what it had and never played it afterwards). But, I don't plan on completing an achievement/trophy set if I have no interest/hate the game.
