10 Abysmally Terrible PS4 Video Games

10. Left Alive

Left Alive was sold almost solely on the involvement of legendary Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkawa, who created promotional art for the game and also designed some of its characters.

And while on paper the game certainly had the potential to be a thrilling spiritual successor to Hideo Kojima's beloved stealth-action franchise - what, with its giant mechs and stealth-centric gameplay - it was ultimately a catastrophe of atrocious game design.

Even if you can accept the overabundance of bugs, generic visuals - just look at those lens flares - and laughable voice acting, Left Alive simply wasn't fun in the slightest.

The stealth gameplay is ultimately more awkward and annoying than fun, made worse by inconsistent enemy A.I. and agonisingly long stretches between checkpoints.

Even with developers Ilinx eventually patching in a more casual difficulty setting, this was still a joyless slog to play through.
