7. Worst game based on a movie: "X-Men: The Official Game"

Here's a category with some stiff competition. "The Da Vinci Code" has achieved unprecedented excellence in the realms of lengthy, expressionless dialogue, slapped-together presentation and good-story ruining. "Over the Hedge" is great if your key game-play requirement is boredom. But "X-Men: The Official Game" has them both beat, thanks to numerous glitches, a palpable rush-to-release feel, Swiss-cheese plotlines, hilariously bad transitions and artificially unintelligent stage bosses. Plugging your game controller into a ham sandwich while pushing buttons and making your own sound effects is more engaging.
