The Worst Games of 2009

by
Posted December 12th, 2009 at 11:58 am

Now that December has arrived and all of the sports titles have been released there will be articles featured throughout the remainder month that look back on the games and big stories of the year. Before starting the countdown on the top 10 games of 2009 the worst has to be cleared out. Last year those were fringe titles FIFA Street 3 and Facebreaker. This time around there is a major franchise included.

3) NBA Unrivaled
There was absolutely nothing redeeming about this downloadable game and it was sold at the egregious price of $15. Thankfully no more than a handful (literally) of people actually bought it so the damage was very limited.

2) MLB Front Office Manager
Lots of online posters exaggerate the problems with games. However FOM was literally broken. Then 2K Sports completely abandoned it providing absolutely no support or even any communication with those who had purchased it.

1) MLB 2K9

mlb2k101209

The worst major yearly sports title this generation in the context of when it was released. No game has been plagued with as many glitches as regularly experienced in MLB 2K9. It was improbable to get through a single game without coming across at least one if not several. This video is an entertaining example of what the final product provided. As stated back when evaluating the game there comes a point where the “building a foundation” excuse can not be accepted anymore and it becomes apparent the game has very little potential.

2K Sports even disrespected baseball enthusiasts by changing the wall dimension of parks and adding non-existent billboards to provide more space for advertising. At the very least you would expect a company to be true to the sport they are attempting to replicate. Consumers who only own a 360 are relegated to looking forward to the end of the third party license and feeling jealousy towards those who have a PS3.

      NCAA is NO way a terrible game.

    • cole

      NCAA wasn't a terrible game, I have had fun with it sometimes. But there are way too many glaring problems and frustrating bullshit everywhere that makes me hate it. And DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON PRESENTATION. So bad. I love college football, after watching the Boise-Oklahoma game i've liked it more than the NFL, and NCAA 10 doesnt do it justice. If 09 had team specific bowl endzones I'd have played that for the last 4 months, but sadly it doesnt. I hope NCAA 11 does College Football justice.

    MLB 2K9 was a joke. 2K should be ashamed of the baseball products they put out other than The Bigs.

    • Bob

      MLB 2K is the definition of next gen. If you can't handle this massive jump then maybe you need to stick to the arcadey The Show

      • Daniel

        yo "bob" dat was just head ure probably the ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD dat says that the show is arcady. please dnt be jealous just get a ps3.

  • Tony

    Can't argue with those. To round out the top five, I'd go with Smackdown vs raw 10, and UFC 09. If you wanna call those sports.

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1229476887 Eric S. Moore

      Just because you can't play these two titles doesn't mean they are 2 of the most horrible games of 09….And for further information SVR 10 is entertainment not to be confused with a sport. UFC is reported on by ESPN and other sports mediums so it is a sport if they classify it that way.

      • johnshaft23

        dont know about wrestling games, but UFC 2009 was not a failure……..you need to like the sport and the controls to be able to play it. you can't just press the punch buttons, cause it's 25% of the whole game. You can have an opinion, but to say that a game is a failure, while 98@ of the people who bought it or reviewed it like it, then your opinion is really not correct.
        It's like saying the american flag has green in it….shit just is not true.

    • Bob

      I would agree with this as well. Those 2 titles absolutely sucked. Nobody even played those games except for the poor kids stuck with them cuz gamestop refuses to take them back

      • Anonguy

        Hey look, it's the same guy, pretending like someone agrees with him. How cute.

    Yea must agree 2k9 was garbage glad i waited for a buddy to bring it by to play it. I must thank 2k for this aweful baseball game though because with out it i would never have purchased my ps3.

    • Bob

      I vehemently disagree. MLB 2K was clearly the most realistic baseball title this year. It is how baseball was meant to be played and not that all glamor and nothing but glitch The Show.

    never played any of those games but after watching that video your damn right i'm glad I have a PS3. MLB09 THE SHOW is one of the best looking sports games ever.

    • Bob

      might have a pretty picture but what about the details? MLB 2K is all about the intricate details of baseball. That's why the real ball players chose this game over any other

  • http://intensedebate.com/people/sroeland sroeland

    Bottom line…steer clear of 2K's "sim" baseball titles.

    At least The Bigs works correctly.

    It wouldn't be so bad for 2K, but their communication with consumers is terrible as well. After MLB 2K9's release, the 2K forums were full of people airing their frustration with legit complaints and honest questions. However, the mods over there and Ronnie did their best to suppress any negative comments and locked any tread that was critical of the game.

    As a consumer, it made you feel good to know that your opinions and issues went unheard and neglected.

    Congrats, 2K…2009 was the year you became the laughingstock of baseball video gaming.

    • Bob

      MLB 2K is all about sim. it has better baserunning and better overrall mechanics than any other tittle out there. Plus is has online gaming without lag *gasps* Imagine that! I hope u gave up ur copy because our community doesn't need the likes of you spoiling a great game.

      • wow

        You are a delusional troll

        Go back to the 2K boards.

      • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

        What is sim about slugging 10 homers right out the box ???

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/pastapadre pastapadre

      Get ready for that again with 2K10. They've already posted a sticked thread warning against "trolling". Essentially…don't talk bad about their game on the forum.

      • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

        They dont have to worry about me talking bad anymore on their forum cause I wont buy the game let alone take a free sample of the game!!!

  • oktaine

    2K9 was not as bad as everyone said it was. The pitching was good and the hitting mechanics were solid, and while it did have a lot of problems and glitches I would, by no means, call it the worst sports game of 2009. It was a below average-mediocre title, but not horrible.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

      "And while it did have a lot of problems and Glitches"..you just basically stated by it should be on this list as one of the worst games of 2009, just look at the creen shot and ask yourself who the hel is that suppose to be???

      • oktaine

        So an excessive number of glitches means it's one of the worst games of the year? You're telling me a game with a lot of bugs can't be good? I'm not implying 2K9 is good by saying this, but that is a pretty dumb point of view.

        • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

          They couldnt even get the basics of the game right!! Cpu swung at anything thrown at the plate. what games with a lot of glitches have you know to be good, wait…is this the 2k staff trying to fight for its own crappy product?

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/sroeland sroeland

      Pitching was intuitive…but the CPU would swing at nearly EVERYTHING. Lots of either three-pitch Ks or 1 or 2 pitch ABs. Pitch counts were completely unrealistic and you couldn't actually enjoy the pitching mechanics when you only got to do it 3-5 times an inning.

      Online league games were home run slugfests – I scored 40+ runs in one game…AND LOST!

      Players would walk in slo-mo to catch pop-ups/fly balls…then, if you're outfield got to the ball, they either never started the ball-catching animation or they let the ball hit them in the head!

      But the gamekiller for me was when my Franchise mode froze up after the second offseason and couldn't be advance. I had multiple save files and all would freeze at the same point.

      All these, plus major stat glitches in Franchise mode and everything else already said made 2K9 sounds like a worst-game-of-the-year candidate to me.

      • oktaine

        I never had that problem with pitching. I usually gave up anywhere from 1-4 runs a game, occasionally more and occasionally I'd cruise and pitch a shutout. I thought the pitching was easily the best part of the game.

        I've heard the complaints about online games, but quite honestly the online stuff being arcade to the max isn't really a deal breaker.

        I know the issues with fielding, I own the game and that is a terrible aspect.

        Freezes are glumped in with my "glitches" statement. Not aware of "major stat glitches" in Franchise mode. Any examples?

        Numerous glitches, as I've said, do not make a game the worst sports game of the year. Tony Hawk: Ride is completely abysmal, glitches or not. Unrivaled, Front Office Manager, Virtua Tennis off the Wii and such stuff is much worse than 2K9.

        • http://intensedebate.com/people/sroeland sroeland

          Some stat examples…I had my stats in franchise show 20+ players with the EXACT same offensive stats.

          Plus, these same stats showed that the players played more than 200 games in a season, they drove in 190+ RBIs, 70+ home runs, and cleaned up all yearly awards.

          This also affected pitchers, as some pitchers in both the AL and NL had these BATTING stats. So pitchers won offensive awards.

      • Bob

        You didn't score no 40 runs you're a flatout liar. and how did you give up at least 41 runs? you must be the worse player ever. you must not know the intricate details in pitching. u can't just throw heat right down the plate dummy and u cant just throw dirtballs. maybe u should learn the game b4 criticizing it. MLB 2 K is the clear sports game of the year. This game is what next generation gaming is all about.

        • http://intensedebate.com/people/pastapadre pastapadre

          Pre-patch games were pretty high scoring. I didn't see anything like that, but double digit scores were pretty normal. After the first patch they made hitting homeruns pretty difficult.

      • http://intensedebate.com/people/sroeland sroeland

        My bad…I meant to type 20, not 40…

        But 20 is still insane…to score 20 and lose.

        And yes, this was pre patch…online league scores got somewhat better after the patch.

    NCAA football should've topped this list. What a load of garbage.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/pastapadre pastapadre

      You thought NCAA was bad? I don't think I'd classify it that way. I don't believe it advanced as much as it should have.

      • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

        I wouldnt say bad. more like stale and a lack of any type of work put into the game would be more accurate.

        • jusmegamer

          NCAA is better than Madden so if NCAA should have been on there what does that tell you?

          • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

            Ncaa is better than what madden?? madden 96?? I hope this is the madden you are talking about. Madden 10 has its faults and plenty of them, but ncaa 10 looks like a repackaged ncaa 09! gameplay is too too fast and needs pro tak on it, new player models, new presentation and a real college feel!

          • bigturboweenie

            AGREED! whoever thinks ncaa 10 is better than madden 10 needs to see a psychiatrist, immediately! they're basically saying that ncaa 09 is better than madden 10, because ncaa 10 IS (i repeat) IS ncaa 09 with more tackling animations and a stupid a** "create-a-team" that I for one never used.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/pastapadre pastapadre

      According to IGN when they did their review, which was out a few days after release, there were only like 10 people on the XBL leaderboard that had even played the game.

    From everything I hear MLB 2K9 was garbage, but Pasta is most definitely at home wanking off to 2K covers so this was to be expected that he would put 2 2K offerings on the list regardless. Now get ready for the BS lies and exaggerations of how Madden was vastly improved and is the game of the year when the game sucks so bad defensively that it should be called Madden Offense.

    • James

      Madden 10 is vastly improved, because Madden 09 and 08 were such horrible games all they really could do is improve the game. Don't get me wrong Madden 10 is still a horrible simulation of football but compared to 08 or 09 it's a huge step up. And it's not Pastas fault that the worste game this year was made by 2k, although I only rented MLB 2k9 for a day after 1 hour of playing it I realized why everyone hated it so much.

      • sucker

        Why are you comparing Madden 10 to 08 & 09 when Madden 04 was better than this year and had more features?

        Exactly what they want you to think….

    MLB Front Office Manager was a complete waste of time, money, & resources. Did they really think anyone would really play that?. I’m a little stunned that NHL 2k10 is not on the list.

      Dont worry this is just 1-3, nhl 2k10 will be up and comming shortly. Instead of waste time and money on mlb front office manager they should use the resources for a decent baseball game!

    Sounds like the antithesis of MLB 2K. MLB 2K is what games strive to be. just when you think MLB 2K can't go higher they take it to the next level. absolute true life-like sim. The first time I played MLB 2K on my 60 inch screen my wife thought I left the window open and people were playing baseball outside. yes, that's how real this game is. It's the reason that you have to go Hi-Def today

    Pasta, you need to put some of these comments in your entertainment section. Truly.

    MLB 2K9 was not worse than Front Office Manager. What you have though is an absolute example why they need not touch anything but their 2K baseball game. Get that fixed and working and lay off trying other things until it's above average. Front Office Manager is the worst because the game is a slap in the face to baseball video game fans. 2K said, "we're not going to refine our baseball game, we're going to give you two trashy ones.

    • http://intensedebate.com/people/pastapadre pastapadre

      Understandable. 2K9 was just more offensive to me because it is supposed to be a flagship and is a yearly title. Probably about 50 people bought Unrivaled and maybe 20K bought FOM. 2K9 sold 300K+. That plays into my rankings based on how many people got screwed over.

      • Bob

        So if you're going by numbers Pasta than how many people got screwed over by Wii Sports? 20; 30; or was it 50 million?

        • http://intensedebate.com/people/okafor43 okafor43

          Wii sports is for kids, are you seriously gonna bring that game up like its suppose to be a sim game like mlb 2k9. Im shocked at how many people on here are trying to actually defend this game. Face the facts it was terrible. And I hope they would put out better products, but lets face the facts here. 2k probably wants out of the baseball business and they are only putting out half ass games and sales indicate how terrible it is.

    MLB 2k9 was brutal and displayed how far 2K had fallen in a few short years. Also, comparing it The Show 09 was really revealing how poor 2K9 really was. The Show 09 was so good and showed how truly great a baseball game could be that 2k9 just paled in comparison. Can't wait to see The Show 10!

    • http://twitter.com/DaveDQ @DaveDQ

      The Show this, The Show that. They still can't get online play right.

      Not to mention that so many people go on and on about how terrific the game is and hardly anyone keeps playing it.

      • SDwinder

        Played it all year, and with weekly roster updates. Online is still weak, no doubt, but that doesnt change the fact that this is the best baseball video game in my 25 years of baseball gaming.

    sooooo with all of that being said, im amazed at how at least NCAA 10 didnt make this list…completely amazed!! I could load plenty of apex videos to show why that game is trash and should have been battling MLB 2K for that no. 1 spot. I stopped playing NCAA about two weeks after i bought it..
