As much as I love the series, honestly, The Legend of Heroes

its just the most bland name. Thankfully the games are bangers

at least names like Melty Blood and 358/2 Days are unique

Grandia and Grandia 2like what the hell?

Theres also a game called Big Mutha Truckers 2: Truck me Harder. I dont know if thats just bad or funny.

Also lets not forget that Madden 25 came out in 2013 which makes next summer a little interesting.

But I think my favorite is that Golf Game. Golf Magazine presents 36 Holes starring Fred Couples.

I think half the reason Biomutant failed is because the name is awful and doesn't seem to fit it at all.

Did you not play it.
Seems to fit the name fine for me.

Triangle Strategy sounds like a shovelware DS puzzle game.

I also thought Infamous was a bad title. Doesn't really capture what the game is about

Halo: Combat Evolved. Great game, dumb name.

Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Saying it fast sounds like Toilet Princess. Great game though.

Werewolf: The Apacolypse - Earthblood. It has two fucking unnecessary subtitles. Kind of a game game itself, too.

Kingdom Hearts. I don't think they even really knew what the in-universe thing called Kingdom Hearts was at that point. They probably still don't.

Kingdom Hearts 2. The third game in the series.

Kingdom Hearts 358 Days/2. The individual parts do have something to do with the game, but the title as a whole is a bizarre word salad.

Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep. I. I don't know what the fuck this is supposed to be. I know a character says the phrase "birth by sleep" in a scene, but I'm pretty sure it's just a stupid way of saying awakening. And said awakening doesn't happen in the game, it's just something that's supposed to happen at the exact opposite end of the series chronologically.

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. Dreams are a big part of the story. "Dropping" is a system in the game (that has no reason to be called that). Distance doesn't mean anything. It just awkwardly lends itself to the DDD (3D) pun.

Kingdom Hearts 3. It's like the sixteenth game in the series.

Chain of Memories, Coded, and Melody of Memory are all clear and elegant enough.

On that note, Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf deserves a mention - it's a perfectly competent NES golf game but there is no fighting whatsoever

A lot of early NES games had hilariously generic names

"Golf" "Tennis" "Gyromite"

okay, maybe not that last one

No, the game failed because it was nothing like it promised to be, and all the tribes felt the same.

Not that it's particularly original, but the real name was Gods and Monsters before they were sued. So they had to pull a late audible.

And yet they came up with Ten Yard Fight! A game that barely represented the sport of professional football (I forget exactly how it worked) but that is a pretty bad ass name for a Black Box game. I think if you didn't get ten yards it just automatically punted the ball it was weird.

Every time I see a mention of those The Legend Of Heroes games, I think about what a painfully generic name it is.

Also Sonic and The Secret Rings was originally named Sonic Wildfire when it was unveiled. What happened, Sega?
