bah, my favorite is and always will be oddballz, which was like a generic catz or dogz, but with bizzare creatures.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

This topic should end with "...crappy games that suck too much for just one screen".
