Top 5 Weirdest Game Names
 
Not sure if this has been done yet. The title explains it all. What are your top 5 games that you've seen with the weirdest names? The only one I can up with right now is a game called "Wet" by Bethesda that's coming out this fall.

Wet isn't bad considering some games out there.

Well "Wet" is really a bad name, I'm just saying it's kinda weird. It looks like a great game though. And yes there are some pretty bad ones in that list: "Irritating Stick" lol!

Lol, sticky balls? Good god, you would think that they're paying someone to make sure there's no entendres.

I guess most of it can be attributed to a marketing stunt if it was intentional.

Those...those just don't deserve to exist...

Yeah thanks, that link you made just made this thread irrelevant lol. You have to wonder what the makers of those games were on when they named them, and mean seriously, why?

Yeah, just seems more like a genre than a title.
Haha

and looking at the preview for the game, it looks like BF 2142, except on a larger scale. There has also been rumors of a fee to play, but that's not been confirmed yet.

I'm guessing this name was only because they couldn't find a way to shoehorn an "X" into the word "Train" instead.

I can almost see the marketing meeting... "You know, Train-X... because trains are EXTREME!!!" :p

Sticky balls must have been the prequel to World of Goo.

Oh yeah, World of Goo. Fantastic indie game, horrible name. Very descriptive though.
