@@ObiKKa i don't care about the metacritic after a scoring a game, my truth is im hate this the guy game, poker, hard rock casino, and even the worst first person shooter game.
I still Can't believe titles like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Gundam Battle Assault 3, Gundam Seed Never Ending Tommorow, Shadow the Hedgehog and Eureka Seven considered as some of the Worst game in PS2. Because they're some of my favorites. That's why i don't always agree with Metacritic. But still you put great effort on this list Gary. Great job ❤❤❤
This list is made by Gary, but the score is from metacritic, don't get mad my dudes! 😅 Also this goes to show that you should not always trust what the critics say, so if you like a game, don't be afraid to enjoy it because the critics or other people say otherwise :)
Red Ninja has a worse control scheme than Tenchu, and Tenchu is already jank. I wouldn't say it's top 100 terrible, but it sure isn't good or above average at all.
If these are the wort, then it would seem to indicate that the whole library was pretty good indeed, because I se many of these as being quite desirable to try.
I think a few of the games on the list are really good especially final fight streetwise. Metacritic scores are really bad at times but I suppose its just what people prefer. Have a great new year gary buddy 🙂👍
Is Wariors of M&M really that bad? Wait, Battle Assault 3 is there too? I liked the Iron Man game when I was a kid. XD That Lowrider game reminds me of that San Andreas mission. Ghost Recon is here too? Okay, DW 6 was treated harshly. And Godzilla Unleashed. Not sure about Mummy 3. Wow, M&M spin offs were treated harshly on PS2.
Wow, great video Gary, seeing these games in this way they don't seems so bad, maybe because they appeared in your videos and i always like your compilation videos like these, keep up the good work!
For numbers 97 & 51, the PS2 era was essentially the final nail to 989 Sports' coffin, as their PS2 games suffered from the NFL GameDay 2001 curse (basically the opposite of the Madden curse), with their titles being rushed and done on a much smaller budget compared to EA's Sports offerings.
So I I just turn 30 this year and start my putting time into my PS2 game collection which I had about 20 games that I still managed to hold on to over the years. I just repurchased Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 which sits at the top of Metacritic's list and thought it would be funny to pick up the lowest. Come to find out it happens to be a random game I've had since childhood that I've never even played lol.
This is why we do not have many different genre of video games in 2024 or at least a wide array of titles such as these average to semi-decent video games--- dev's and QA groups see these kind of subjective lists and don't want to make the next Parapa the Rapper or the Getaway for example. Metacritic almost single handedly destroyed the niche video game market; people nowadays would rather watch TV, stream XXX material on the web, read a science-fiction novel or simply unplug by spending time outdoors.
I find it funny not seeing "NARC" (the remake), "Fallout: Brotherhood Of Steel" and/or any of Phoenix-DDI games here... a second helping in the future, perhaps? and while I admit "State Of Emergency 2" and "Sega Classics Collection" are indeed junk, with enough time given to 'em they can grow to become guilty pleasures... did for me, LOL! have yourselves a prosperous 2024, everyone!
It's crazy how these bad games are so horrible but if they had come out one or 2 generations prior, they'd be excellent. I've played and own quite a few games on multiple systems that people say are terrible but yet I love them. I guess it all depends on how much you get paid to review a game. 😒
3:24 i can't believe dbZ infinite world has a rating this low cuz it's basically Budokai 3 but better. They removed dragon rush and the story mode i million times better with more cutscenes and things to do and the roster added GT characters too What were these journalists smoking back then ??
Looking at the other comments here, there appear to be quite a few of you DragonBall Z Infinite World fans who are wondering why it's on this list. Well, looking at the MetaCritic page www.metacritic.com/game/dragon-ball-z-infinite-world/ we can see several excerpts: GameDaily: (who scored it 40): If the lame "fetch" quests don't bore you, the ridiculously bad mini-games will. Buy one of the earlier releases (for half the price, if not cheaper) and leave this World behind. IGN (who scored it 35) - "The sound's repetitive, the graphics are shoddy, and the gameplay isn't fun. Do not play Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World." Game Revolution (who scored it 25): "There’s very little reason to pick up Dragonball Z: Infinite World. Even Dragonball fans will likely find that the only allure is the fighting, but if that’s the case, they’re better off popping back in Budokai 3 or anything that doesn’t force them to do side-chores."
@@GaryRetroGamer Trust me. This game is not even as half bad as they make it out to be. If they hate the gameplay of infinite world u might as well hate all the Budokai games. And the mini games in the world map are great side quests and challenges and they're not something u have to do like training mini games and open area platforming time trails I still don't understand the hate it got from journalists even tho the fans love it
@@justadragonballfan1687 I believe you. I've never played any of the Dragon Ball games myself, but I know that there are a huge amount of fans - and if there are that many fans, it's gotta be worth something!
I agree with your comment; I tried the Sony PS3 version and I found it pretty difficult and gothic...maybe that is why the inferior Sony PS2 version tanked !? Alone in the Dark and the Driver series definitely need to make a comeback.
I thought "Tetris Worlds" as an okay game. The problem was that they made the Tetris screen so small that it was hard to see it from a distance. They needed to make where the game takes up the entire middle of the screen. There was no good reason to make the game screen so small, Tetris on the Philips CD-i was better.
there are like 4000 games on ps2 and like 5-10% of scam with US show games, I think metacritic never test them haha What s the game with sexy wrestlers, its for a friend 😏
Some of the ones with the Metascore in the 40s are actually decent such as DBZ Infinite Worlds and Beat Down. Shadow the Hedgehog and Dynasty Warriors 6 are extremely polarizing games so your mileage may vary on those.
So you care about what some random critic says rather than judging games on your own? This isn't even an opinion of Gary, read description. Don't trust critics, what they say isn't always the truth. I haven't watched this list but I am pretty sure my point will still stand even after I have watched it.
@@acrane3496 That's not ideal. Dragon Ball Z Sagas, Digimon World 4, The Guy Game, Catwoman, Simpsons Skateboarding, and Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal are ones I know are absolute crap.
very poor list, what no DATA DESIGN INTERACTIVE games, no UK disney knockoffs? no oddball and truely horribnle japanese games? Most of the gamese here are very good> Its proof metacritic isn't worth shit
hmmmm i mean Red Ninja, TMNT, Blade, and alot more of my fav, i mean sure ps2 isn't like Ps5 or anything but i played ps2 rather to play buggy mess game's on ps5
Some of my favourite childhood games are on this list. I can play it for hours. Metacritics have some absolute shit taste in grading. They probably didn't even finish the game they give their grading too.
Boa tarde a todos, que ótimo vídeo Gary, muito obrigado, assisti o vídeo e jogo de número 53.

Metacritic sucks, lots of decent games on this list, and some actually good ones. And then you look at the better ones and there's Tony Hawk's 3 at the top (fun game, but absolutely not one of the best ps2 titles ever) and Grand Turismo 3 better than 4, GTA III better than Vice City and San Andreas🙄
From: www.metacritic.com/game/tokyo-xtreme-racer-drift-2/critic-reviews/?platform=playstation-2 IGN gave it a score of 40. A part of their review: "The inability to drift still sucks, but now, there's no reason to attempt to legitimately progress through the game since you can avoid these races entirely, and rivals aren't challenging either." G4 TV gave it a score of 20: "Basically, Drift 2 feels like a repackaging of the original Drift, with almost nothing done to improve on the myriad problems of the prequel." GameSpot gave it a 52: "Tedious gameplay, poor vehicle handling, and an unfriendly interface are just a few reasons why you should leave this game in the bargain bin."
Funny how i played some games in there and thought they were really good, others on this list looks really interesting and others are straight out funny, like the american idol one lmao.

Wow, a lot of the worst games on the PS2 are still fun to play. That really says something about how good the PS2 library is.
Yeah some of these I enjoyed playing
I don't get why sega classics collection was rated so badly. Those remakes are mostly really cool.
Wow. Didn't expect DBZ Infinite Worlds or Red Ninja to be ranked bad.
As far as the fighting mechanics. Infinite world was simply the best Budokai.
same with dynasty warriors 6 i thought they all were high ranked games

20 mins of peak. Thanks Gary
