Default So you think Silent Hunter 5 is bad? Think again!



I was almost choking on my drink when I watched that, the finished, released version of "Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing"!

Over the road, up the mountain, through the building, spinning at 100mph, a fine product they should be proud of themselves.

Ah, the infamous Big Rigs game. It is the stated opinion of me and several others I know that it was probably released like that on purpose...

The makers of the game pretended to be programmers, so I have no problem with the guy pretending to act.

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing (often simply referred to as Big Rigs) is a third-person racing video game developed by Stellar Stone and published by Activision Value for PC in 2003; from 2004 onward, all copies were published by GameMill Publishing. Due to its severe lack of functionality on release, the title has received universally negative reviews, with many critics referring to it as the worst video game of all time.

Actual sales figures for the game are unknown, although GameSpot has stated that "perhaps most disgusting of all is that this game actually sold copies.
