Not even certain ping pals is a game, more like a pictochat thing.

I'd have to say hands down the worst game I have ever seen in my life, even next to my old intellivsion is Elf Bowling. I have seen 14 year olds who do better homebrew demos on the DS.  :lol:

Burnout isnt so bad if you compare it to some of the other GBA and DS driving games though... more than I expected from a DS driving game anyway.

I think the big problem with burnout is that it is simply straight out port of another system's game, onto a system which they had to know from the beginning couldn't handle it... so essentially they started with a great product with the intent of cutting it back.
had they taken the Tony Hawk approach, and tried to copy the experience the DS's console brethren, while building a game which played on the strengths of the system rather than highlighting its weaknesses, it had the potential to rock.

I think Elf Bowling was actually released a couple of years ago as one of those Macromedia Flash based games that people download, play for 3 minutes and then promptly delete (along the same lines as "Shoot Osama" and "Frog in a Blender" etc.) It was dumb and played crapily then, so I don't know why they thought that porting to the DS would make it any better.  Maybe they are targeting the unknowing-aunt-or-grandparent-who-needs-to-buy-a-Christmas-gift-for-a-child-who-does-want-clothes demographic.

I will absolutely choose Need For Speed : Most Wanted.
Since the roms release is so fast that we can play so many new games everyday, it is not possible to  check all those game. For example , i didn't try Burnout Legend myself and i just read the comment on IGN and i know i won't like it...

It may be resulted in a game it is not tried and you think it should be the worst....

I have tried NFS myself....  i can't even control my first car in the first stage... to be honest, i am not the worst driver (or game driver) in the world.... and i enjoyed all the PC version of NFS... it is a shame that it looks and  feel so badly ..... the most importantly , i  have lose heart on the series and i didn't even try the PC version of  Most Wanted.....

In terms of potential, the worst letdown was BY FAR Lunar: Dragon Song. That game is not an RPG. It is not a Lunar game. It is so fundamentally flawed that it BLOWS MY MIND. It's just BEYOND bad. I cannot believe that UbiSoft would besmirch the good name of Lunar for money. It's disgusting.

After giving it much thought, my vote goes to Snood 2.

then again i didn't even bother trying Elf Bowling....

Apparently Elf Bowling was a mobil phone game before being a DS game. That might explain its crappiness.

That Pokèmon racing game is horrible.

After my expectation with Burnout Legends on the DS, and how amazing it plays on my PSP,...this is how I felt after trying out the DS version:
