10 TERRIBLE Video Games (You Should Play Anyway)

This one is a little different in that the beauty of Goat Simulator is that, being a spoof of the growing sim genre, it was intentionally made a little badly. Developer Coffee Stain Studios had no qualms allowing physics glitches and such to get through the code to provide the kind of entertainment that we all get from watching a game world appear to fall apart.

Nothing about Goat Simulator should be right. There’s no story, no set objective, nothing of the sort. Its physics don’t make sense, its presentation is a mess and yet… it was destined to go viral.

On the great face of video gaming, with of it's glorious AAA successes, Goat Simulator is the cheeky pimple that cropped up overnight.

Want to become the world’s best skateboarding goat? Or would you rather ingest sugar cubes and get psychedelic? Perhaps you’re more into sneaking up on people and pushing them to their doom? All of these and so much more are at your fingertips in the game’s ridiculous open world.

It was never going to win any fancy-schmancy awards but Goat Simulator reminds us all that video games don’t always have to be cinematic or high art. Sometimes it’s just enough that they make us smile, and terrorising a town as a demonic goat sounds like something that could make just about anyone smile.
