If I think its going to be a bad game, then I don't play it. It's that simple. Also, bad games generally just disappear, unless they're majorly horrible like Superman 64 or Custer's Revenge (Falco knows what I'm talking about, and yes, it is horrible). Oh ya, ET for the atari 2600 was apparently really bad, because it (along with a lot of other crappy games) brought about the dark age of videogames, before NES came out to save the day.
