10 Video Games We Love BECAUSE They're Fun Trash

4. Dynasty Warriors (Series)

Forget Resident Evil’s Nemesis - the real king of terrifying, unstoppable overpowered foes has to be Dynasty Warriors’ Lu Bu, a tyrannical and pee-inducing enemy to encounter on a battlefield regardless of your loadout.

Dynasty Warriors is another one of those “my body and mind are fried today, time to unzip this frayed meat suit and autopilot me some games” games. It’s a testament to the simplicity of the concept that you can finish most of the mainline games by simply tapping one button/moving one stick, because it’s a singular concept stretched out across tens of hours per title - hundreds of blokes want to hit you, but you’re five thousand times stronger than them, so hit them first.

With an enormous cast of playable characters, it’s surprising just how much mileage you can get from tapping square-square-triangle upon meeting a horde of shamefully inept enemy soldiers. And I can’t overstate how stupid these baddies are - most will literally just stand there, guard down, ready to be cut to pieces like my noisy neighbours’ car tyres.

All except the almighty daddy Lu Bu. Seriously, man, forget dulcolax, Lu Bu’ll have you crapping yourself in no time.
