12 Most Bafflingly Awful Movie Tie-In Games You Ever Played

3. Friday The 13th (NES)

What It Should Have Been: Players control Jason Voorhees, as he hacks and cleaves his way through a gang of horny teenagers at Camp Crystal Lake. What It Actually Was: Unfortunately, this game has little of the sense of humour or playfulness that a Friday the 13th game should have, and somewhere someone really missed a trick by not making us play as Jason. I mean, isn't the point of these movies that we root for Jason to slay the idiotic meat-puppets one after another? Instead, we're put in the shoes of a number of camp counselors and have to spend the game chasing Jason down three times in order to defeat him. The awkward mechanics notwithstanding (especially as it relates to fighting Jason), the much-complained about repetitiveness of the soundtrack will make players want to cram chopsticks into their ears just to make it all stop. A missed opportunity if there ever was one, but still one that could be rectified.
