    Quite a few, I’m one of those people. In fact, I could answer this question in so many different ways. The game I feel is the “prize” of my collection, though, is Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude.

    I like the classic point and click Leisure Suit Larry games; I think they have a certain charm about them, and though they’re drenched in sleaze, Larry in his quests for sex more often than not ends up the butt of the joke. Raunchy, sexual, but most importantly, mainly making fun of our protagonist desperately trying to get laid. The gameplay was fun too, point and click games have a certain feel that you don’t see too much today. On top of all that, when the series moved into a more higher resolution art for LSL 4, 6 and 7 the series genuinely beautiful with an unforgettable style

    LSL: MCL does not have much of this. You play truly horribly designed minigames over and over to progress. These range from bad to worse, and you will become the best virtual quarters player of all time by the end of it, I promise you. The comedy is reduced to 2000s boner comedy level, and it seems as though Larry (or Larry’s nephew, Larry, in this case) is an unironic protagonist on a real quest, rather than failing upwards, accompanied by the constant mockery of our witty narrator. What once was a series about a hopeless sleazeball constantly petitioning and getting rejected by women out of his league got turned into a unironic college boning simulator. To top it all off, our beautiful art has been replaced by the early-2000s-est of 3D models and textures

    I played it for 22 hours or so. Couldn’t stop. It’s like a car crash. Not only does it If any game deserves “so bad, it’s good” status, LSL: MCL is at the top of the list.

    For those kind enough to read my rant, here are some runners up from my shelf in which I assume you’d also be interested:

    BCFX The Black College Football Experience: A college football game where only Historically Black Colleges and Universities are selectable. Only part of the game is really about football, because you also play as the band at halftime in a Rock Band-style minigame. It’s such a niche game, with such a niche audience. Who probably won’t even like the game because it doesn’t play well at all.

    Sneak King: C’mon, we all know this one. Premium, refined jank.

    Fight Club: A fighting game based on the movie based on the book, where you can play as Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit and also Abraham Lincoln should you so desire.

    MTV’s Pimp My Ride: PBG fans out there, time to represent. Basically just a minigame collection with some driving between. It did, however, teach me how to Ghost Ride the Whip, for which I am eternally grateful.

      Sneak King wasn’t my favorite out of those three BK games though personally. For me that title belongs to the absolute banger Pocketbike Racer. That game was actually good!

    My friend made Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015. He explained it to me and I was like, “who tf showered with their dad growing up!?” Surprisingly the friend group was split in half on that one and it was common.

    Anyway, I told him I’d grab it just have it appear in my library, but it’s half fun. I remember unlocking the Inglorious Bathdads mode, thinking he was genius.

      Ah, yes, the infamous Sonic the Hedgehog Xbox 360 game (Sonic '06). Weirdest fricking Sonic game in existence. And not weird as in bad, but weird in general. Why was Sonic having sensual moments with a human princess? Why are we running around aimlessly in a city? Why are the controls so bad? All of these weird design choices just makes it… interesting, to say the least.

      I’d pick it up just for shits and giggles.

    Hentai vs Furries on Steam. Exquisite game with deep lore and a narrative rich with turns and twists at every corner. 11/10 powers of friendships

      The full name is hilarious to begin with, but the “2” really sells the punchline
