As 2008 enters its final few days, the upstanding journalistic folks of the Associated Press have decided to take a huge ceremonial dump on what it believes are five of the very worst games of the year. Most of them are truly crap, but surprisingly the Wii’s large E3 2008 showstopper Wii Music makes for quite a high profile target.

“In the age of Rock Band, using the Wiimote to mime playing “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” or “Yankee Doodle” just doesn’t cut it,” says the scathing article. “It’s the most ill-conceived and poorly timed game in the stellar career of designer Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of the Mario and The Legend of Zelda franchises. He’ll come back.”

Ouch! Nintendo games bore the brunt of the article, with not only Wii Music but CrossworDS getting a bollocking as well, accused of sloppy puzzle design that was “left to amateurs.” A classic Wii minigame collection, Summer Sports: Paradise Island, rounded out the N-themed disasters, strung up as “yet another incompetently programmed rush job from the hacks at Destineer.”

The Xbox 360 and the PS3 got off lightly in comparison, sharing the dual shame of Hail to the Chimp and Lost: Via Domus. The former was called a “substandard arena brawler in which it was almost impossible to figure out which critter you were controlling,” while Lost was likened to “computer-animated World wide web fan fiction.”

The article’s worth reading for a laugh, but remember — the crappy film licenses, substandard brawlers and endless pile of Wii minigame garbage will only keep on coming. Look forward to another list of pure sh*t next year.
