This lady is a Senior Product Manager, but has some of the worst microphone skills I have ever seen. She starts her talk by calling the crowd “lame”, that should get everyone into it. She also tells the crowd that they have drums set up for them to “bang on” right after she said the game was realistic. Overall this lady needs to be booted from public speaking and never allowed to play a video game in front of a crowd.
In a recent study conducted by the Federal Trade Commission only 20 percent of teens under the age of 17 were able to buy M rated video games. Pretty impressive statistic to show all the enraged parents that blame video games for causing violence that only a small percentage of children are able to get their hands on the titles.
The Federal Trade Commission report studied kids’ success at buying tickets to R-rated movies or purchasing R-rated DVDs, mature CDs, and M-rated games. In every case, the FTC found, the success rate had dropped over every previous year it conducted its study.
But nowhere was the drop sharper than with video games.

OK so here is the plot to NBA Ballers “The Chosen One”, apparently every year after the NBA play-offs, the top players in the NBA decide to take it to the streets and compete in a street ball tournament, the winner of this tournament is then dubbed the “Chosen One.” Well where do I sign up for this prestigious honor?
I have to say that I have played almost every version of NBA Street and NBA Jam and thought perhaps NBA Balllers may provide some of the same fun, but boy was I wrong. I played a bit of the game and created my own Baller, that is what cool basketball players are called now a days apparently. The creation of your character is horrid, the character models look emaciated and picking your look and style is cumbersome at best. The best part is picking a nickname, I chose Dice because I like craps, hard 8 FTW!

What could possibly make a video game PSA funny? Well Gary B. of course! This due is a full fledged maniac, but funny as hell to listen to. The montage they put together is hilarious showing the different “Taunts” available, the worst one had to be the jerking motion while the girl was dancing on the pole. What was Gary B. laughing at the end there, sounded a bit like a serial killer laugh?
All I can say is that in this group there are no winners really. This video had me rolling at certain points, like where the guy explains how the name PS3 would confuse consumers or the bulligerant guy who says Mario Party isn’t a party since it doesn’t have pinatas! Truly an awe-inspiring video. LOL
The author of the video entitles it some of the worst video game endings, but I dub them just old school. I remember back in the day all games had these types of endings where you got a couple of words, maybe a picture and then the famous “The End” or “Game Over”. It was very unsatisfying, especially after you spent hours on end to beat RoadBlasters and you just got two words!
But alas that was the way things were back then, I can remember playing Metroid on the NES and thinking it was one of the best endings ever, especially when you got the better ending and figured out Samus was a girl. Sit back and enjoy this trip down memory lane and some “old school” endings.
We brought you the 10 best. Here are the 10 worst.
