The weirdest game you've played...

[Incinermyn]

I think the title should speak for itself, but to elaborate a bit, I got to thinking recently about all the games that have been released over the years for all types of different systems (of which, I'm sure everyone would agree, there are tons of; some better, some worse). But, it occured to me, that of all the things out there, how many could actually probably be called "the weirdest game ever?" While I know there are some really bad titles, not all of them are automatically bad just because they're different. This isn't to say their lost gems, either, but I'm a little curious as to what people would really consider to be the strangest game they've ever played.

For me, this would be a Super NES game known as "Lemmings." The goal of the game was to try and save as many of these green-haired imp-like creatures from the depths of a dungeon as quickly as one could by assigning them different tasks to do in order to avoid all kinds of traps and snares along the way (other than giving the creatures jobs to do, the things paced back and forth across the sidescrolling field map aimlessly). While I can't say much about that style of gameplay, I have to admit that I found it to be kind of addicting...

Katamari Damacy for the PS2.

It's the reason why I will never condone the use of any drugs, alcohol, or preserving of pandas.

Pokémon. I not sure how many of you are familiar with it, but it's this thing where you stuff animals into red and white spheres and pit them against each other in combat. Sometimes these creatures turn into other creatures. These creatures include magnets, genetically modified cats, and spheres that look like the spheres you stuff them into.

(I guarantee several people were thinking of this as a response)

For me it was Donkeykongland2 for the N64 just so weird.

Why do I feel like I have to agree with this statement...? Maybe because it's one-hundred percent true...and I even admit just how weird Pokemon actually is at times, yet I'm still as addicted to the games as much as ever... *shrugs*

I never thought of it that way, lol

For me, it would be this online flash game called Happy Wheels. Trust me, it's anything but. Totaljerkface.com is the website that hosts it.

The weirdest game I played was truly Family go-cart racing for wiiware.UGH it was awful.The control mechanics make even DBZ ultimate battle 99 look good.

I'm one.

Personally, I consider Bunny Must Die pretty weird, and the plot definitely is not as expected. Still fun though.

Couldn't agree more.

I think the entire Fallout series has been weird to me. I love the games and played since the first, but it's just weird because I have dreams about 'What if the Fallout timeline actually happened'.

 

[TheGuy]

Raymond Rabbits or something like that

Shooting Bunnies with Plungers is weird.

^win. but, shockingly, you're not wrong. and if you do think about it the concept is pretty strange xD

For me, Super Monkey Ball is pretty darn odd, so. That.
Oh also Big Brain Academy is pretty messed up

 

[juunkmilk]

NOBY NOBY BOY! Its pretty much just he best game ever made.

 

[cool kid master555]

defend your castle. It's this wiiware game where you just pick up, guys who are running at your castle. then you fling them

 

[Claus]

EarthBound, by far. I'm not even halfway through, and already it's the wackiest game I've ever played. It's awesome though :>

I never thought of it that way. But I bet nobody thought of Kirby this way:

A pink (Cotton ball, jell-O, balloon, etc) goes around flying on a star and eating enemies to get strange hats that give him powers.

Just thinking about a game, it can become very wierd. Take Yu-Gi-Oh (I can't believe I said it :x)

Monsters come out of inanimate cards to attack each other.

Or Pac-man:

Pac-man is a little Pie shaped character who goes through ghost-infested mazes to eat Power Pellets.

I got three games. First, the weirdest logic in a game is I wanna be the guy. The 2nd screen (depending on your path) involves apples falling up. There's just a bunch of weird logic to it. Weirdest in controls is q-bert. Left makes you go downleft, down makes you go downright, up makes you go up left, right makes you go upright. At least, that's what I think. Finally, weirdest concept in a game has to go to Katamari (Something that starts with a d that is near impossible to pronounce). I mean... rolling the world in a ball is WEIRD.
