10 Video Games So Bad They Were Delisted

2. Fast & Furious Crossroads

Racing-action game Fast & Furious Crossroads was released in August 2020, and while pre-release expectations weren't exactly high, few could've anticipated it landing a savage 35 Metascore on PS4, with an even worse 1.7 user score.

The issues were myriad: the horribly dated graphics, terrible vehicular handling, worse camera, empty multiplayer, and generally feckless attempt to adapt a hit movie franchise into a video game.

Crossroads basically faded into the cultural ether within days of its release, and even flag-waving fans of the franchise likely only remembered its existence when publisher Bandai Namco recently announced it would be delisted along with its DLC and season pass on April 29 of this year.

Given that the game, marketed as a major AAA release, was barely on sale for 18 months before being canned, we can safely assume this isn't a licensing issue but rather that it's a terrible game that's no longer selling enough to justify maintaining it.
