    What is the worst console game you have played recently?

    For me, it has to be Two Worlds. Holy hell this game is bad. I even went in with low expectations, being it got such terrible user reviews. I figured I liked the genera so I would give it a shot. I pretty much knew from when I put the disc in it was going to be bad. The opening music made...
