Top 10 Worst Video Game Reviewers

Pokémon HG/SS got a lower score because "it's a remake."

The only con of Majora's Mask 3D according to IGN? The water temple. That one con lowered the score to 8.7/10.

What do they think is bad about Pokken Tournament, a fighting game? Is it the subpar voice acting? Nah, of course, it's the "overwhelming mechanics."

Now let's look at what they said about Assassin's Creed Unity. Towards the end, the reviewer described it as "revolutionary." Really? The buggy mess that is Unity is revolutionary?

They are the worst reviewers because they'll come up with a bunch of excuses to lower the final score of a game they don't personally like while rating games like Call of Duty and Evolve highly despite them being mediocre because of their partnership deals.

If you want a non-biased review of a video game, you don't go to IGN. Enough said.

I'm not even sure if this guy should count, considering he's an obvious troll if I ever saw one. However, he's heavily biased, he compares games to other games that aren't even in the same genre, his voice is very irritating, and he barely even looks at the games he reviews before dismissing them as bad.

Take a look at his review of Undertale. Regardless of whether or not you like Undertale, you have to admit that he made a bad review. He spent more than half the video complaining that the game couldn't run on older PCs, and he only looked at the game for about (I'm not kidding) 10 MINUTES before quitting! I'm sorry, but if you think you can form a solid opinion of a game by playing it for 10 minutes, you're a moron!

Also, his complaints were just stupid. Even if Mr. Gligar13vids is a troll or not, that doesn't change the fact that his videos are a pain to sit through, and he is, in my opinion, the worst video game critic ever.

If any game comes in a blue case, you bet your ass it's getting a free pass.

Whereas I don't know about opinions, his game theories are pretty crappy. He made a theory that Dr. Light from Mega Man is evil, while using non-canon evidence (the Archie Comics). He tried to use math to claim that Majora's Moon is not a threat, even though The Legend of Zelda is a FANTASY series.

Finally, I honestly don't know if I want to take the opinion of a guy who used to make videos theorizing the boob width of game characters.

Fairly harsh for an uninformed opinion. Whilst it is true that Metacritic gathers the average opinion on games, they use a system involving a significant amount of weighting where the values involved aren't published. As a delightful example, reviews submitted by Kotaku have a significantly (SIGNIFICANTLY) higher impact on the score (in fact, the common belief is Kotaku has one of the highest) than other smaller sources.

Which is why I'm also voting Metacritic. Not only is it widely used as a source of critic scores without being properly understood, but their business model is also incredibly shady, and the honestly vast corruption involved in the systems they use causes much, much more damage than the average reviewer will ever have the ability to do.

They barely review games, but that doesn't stop me from putting them here. They are also the same people that called the Wii U Nintendo's biggest mistake, made Goku lose TWICE against Superman in Death Battle, and called Sonic Boom worse than (I'm not even kidding) Superman 64 and Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis. No wonder ScrewAttack is now getting a little bit of hate. Screw them.

Everything older went downhill, and so did ScrewAttack!

The only reason I watch is for Death Battles.

His early reviews were short but informative discussions of interesting games. However, in the last year or two, his output has ceased to be worth watching. It seems like he is chasing YouTube metrics at the expense of quality.

This guy is ugly and annoying. He just...ugh. Even his name disgusts me.

While Jim used to be great, his ranting has gone way too far, especially from the beginning of 2021.

While I agree with his point that members of the LGBTQIA community should be treated better, the way he explains his points is downright abysmal. His research is poor at best, his rants are tiresome and repetitive, and his reaction to criticism is childish.

Again, I agree with most of his beliefs. However, at the end of the day, I cannot stand a man who constantly complains and moans while also refusing to listen to valid criticism for his channel.

This guy tries to review games that he has no idea how to play, and he lets his stream chat walk him through basically the whole game. If he gets stuck and the chat can't help him, he just quits the game. Plus, he complains about people making TIHYDP videos, but if he didn't suck so much, they wouldn't have to.

Worst Let's Player ever. He also does reviews, so he can be here.

All of their videos about games are biased and talk down on games that don't deserve it. Hitman Absolution is sexist because you can kill strippers and position their bodies around? You can do that for anyone regardless of sex, race, and class.

But the worst is their reviews because they talk about the little, unimportant things in the games and barely talk about any of the gameplay, graphics, and sound. If you want an example, watch their Rise of the Tomb Raider review.

The epitome of uninformed, Feminist Frequency has a tendency to make up whatever nonsense to get people who haven't a grasp on common gaming knowledge on their side. I may not like the death threats they receive, but I also don't tolerate blind stupidity. So Feminist Frequency deserves a spot in the top 10 for me.

How? I agree mostly with the RTS reviews, even though he destroyed Civilization 5 and Total War 2. Angry Joe actually put Battlefield, the cops and robbers one, as one of the worst games of 2015. So your points are invalid.

Also, he barely reviews Call of Duty, so you cannot get so salty because of the Advanced Warfare review. Or the Overwatch review. By the way, ever heard of The Witcher franchise? I would say he loves those games.

Simply biased in every single way towards anything that isn't Battlefield or an RTS. Simple as that.

I will admit he's still doing decent compared to the others on this list, but now he's getting a little bit boring. He started doing re-reviews because "his older ones aren't so good because he was so angry." Who cares?

There are worse reviewers than Mr. Enter. I don't hate him, but I used to be an immature hater. I'm still not a fan of him.

I thought he just made crappy, boring reviews on animation while getting angry.
