Re: So what game is your greatest guilty pleasure.

I'm not sure of the absolute worst game that I still play, but I tend to not hate bad game releases (as much) if I've done a level-for-level review of the whole game. "Pesterminator" for the NES is not a great game by any means. But Level 2 and 5 aren't bad as a whole. Despite being on an NES platform, this game - like many Color Dreams releases - has many Atari 2600 elements to it (I'm big 2600 fan), and seems to pay tribute to old B&W films, which I watched on TV a lot as a kid.

I have actually beaten the game and seen the ending, and it has a lackluster, one-screen ending with unexciting music and no animation whatsoever.

Another game worth mentioning: "Desert Falcon" is an interesting misfire for the Atari 2600, and has just as many ups as it has downs. The Atari 7800 counterpart was vastly superior, from what I'd seen.

I actually wrote an AVGN-style review of this game, which I've included a portion of below (I wrote bunch of AVGN-style reviews of 2600 games, but the collection doesn't really follow a particular theme); maybe you'll get a laugh out of it. But watch the YouTube video first, so you'll be able to make sense of the review. :-)

So I was thinking it would be fun to see what games everyone has played that they would consider a guilty pleasure. Please post the game/platform and include a Youtube video link if possible.

I think mine would have to be Twisted on the 3D0

Twisted was a multi-player game show where your reward was escaping the TV world into the real world.
