Oblivion - never could get into it.

That's also on my list, but I don't know if I would count that as recently since I played it at launch.

Now it would be Call of Duty 3... At least the NPC's in Halo 3 could shoot at the enemy and not get in my way. This game is frustrating that I don't think I can finish it.

Unless a game killed a family member (which I guess in the case of say, everquest, is possible), I don't know how you can have a personal grudge against a game.

People tend to hold grudges against games either because they can't afford the game, can't afford the subscription fees, can't afford the console, or simply didn't like it as much as they thought it was hyped. For any of these reasons people go on their little crusades. Let's look at some of the games listed: Halo 3, Metroid Prime 3, FF3 for DS, Super Paper Mario, Twilight Princess, Orange Box, Twisted Metal, Fable, Dreamfall TLJ, GRAW.

I mean cmon, if these are the worst games you've played you should consider yourself pretty lucky.

The thread title is "What is the worst console game you have played recently?" If a person has played only a handful of titles and was unimpressed by one of the mainstream successes, then it could very well fit this thread's criteria.

For me, it was Manhunt. Some people might find the appeal, but not me. Fortunately, most of the games I've played recently have been very satisfying.
