welcome to watch mojo
and today we're counting down our picks
for the top 10 games with broken physics
for this list we'll be looking at
various video games that hilariously
defy the laws of physics
whether intentionally or not can you
think of any others
be sure to let us know in the comments
below before we continue
we'll be doing a deep dive on this
list's number one entry over on mojo
plays so be sure to check it out once
you've finished watching number 10
skate 3.
something very interesting happened
around 2014 skate 3 had been out for
four years and it had actually gone out
of print due to lack of demand
and then youtubers started playing it
all the big names played skate 3.
the videos accrued tens of millions of
views each and ea actually began
producing more copies to keep up with
the insane demand
and the reason the game became so
weirdly popular ragdoll physics mostly
the game is rife with hilarious glitches
and the ragdoll physics made wipeouts
infinitely rewarding
enjoyable and endearingly hilarious it's
a skateboarding game but no one wanted
to actually skate
it's amazing what a simple physics
engine can do for a game's popularity
number nine grand theft auto iv there's
been a big
scare and you can't go across so good
you
have the visa i would stay in broken
rockstar's first gta 4a on the seventh
generation was an undeniable technical
marvel but fan response remains muted
it was a major tonal departure from san
andreas
complete with a tragic story and a far
more grounded approach to its gameplay
another point of contention concerns the
game's problematic and often frustrating
physics
nico moved like he weighed a thousand
pounds which made running and shootouts
a bit awkward
but the biggest issue by far was the
driving the driving physics remained
divisive within the fan base
with some loving the more realistic
approach and others hating the slow
boat-like movements
and that's not even mentioning the
absolutely laughable pool physics
number 8 fallout new vegas
as great as obsidian's entry in the
fallout franchise is it was made using
the havoc engine
and what an unintentionally hilarious
engine it is
the game was absolutely riddled with
graphical glitches
including the always hilarious sights of
characters walking into or even
through walls or just straight up
floating in the air
even putting the bugs aside the game's
physics left a lot to be desired
facial animations were stiff and
unengaging a trait that plagues all
bethesda games
the combat and shooting felt flat and
awkward and world interaction was near
non-existent
this game was meant for mods
number seven totally reliable delivery
service
[Music]
in 2019 this little game developed by
weir 5 games and published by tinybuild
was released
to the unsuspecting public the goal of
the game is simple
pick up a package and deliver it to its
destination of course it's not as simple
as all that
the title is used in an ironic fashion
as this delivery service is notoriously
unreliable
the game is more of a ragdoll physics
simulation than anything else
and each little action throughout the
game is performed in the most outlandish
ridiculous and hilarious manner possible
like skate 3
the actual delivery of the package isn't
really the point just
explore the world go crazy with the
ragdoll effects and enjoy a ton of
laughs
[Music]
number six gang beasts
created by british indie studio boneloaf
gang beasts is undeniably one of the
wackiest beat-em-ups ever made
released through early access in 2014
gang beasts is a simple multiplayer
beat-em-up
as players fight each other in various
absurd locations until one is knocked
out
the difference between this and say
mortal kombat is that players control
gelatinous characters that flop and flap
around in hilarious and
unrealistic fashion it makes for a
fantastic party game
perfectly blending competition and
traditional fighting gameplay
with an intentionally broken physics
engine that will have everyone laughing
and glee
number five tony hawk's pro skater 5.
and here we see the dangers of rushing a
game to completion
the licensing deal between tony hawk and
activision was expiring
so activision quickly pumped out a new
entry and released it in an utterly
broken and embarrassingly
unfinished state
[Music]
the game was critically eviscerated and
rightfully bombed effectively killing
the franchise for five years constant
game breaking bugs aside
the game was just a poorly produced mess
the physics engine is incredibly wonky
and makes movement feel unintuitive
and the controls make even the simplest
of tricks unbelievably frustrating
even if the bugs were smoothed out the
game still would have sucked
[Music]
number four goat simulator
[Music]
like both totally reliable delivery
service and gang beasts the physics of
goat simulator are intentionally
ridiculous
meant for nothing more than maximum
hilarity you play as a goat causing
chaos in a suburban setting
the game plays much like tony hawk as
you accrue points by performing certain
ridiculous stunts and completing goals
it goes all out with the amusing ragdoll
physics and as funny as it is to say
the finished product is intentionally
bad the numerous glitches were left in
on purpose
with the primary goal being to market
the game through youtube compilations
and videos
it was often called youtube bait and it
resulted in a rash of similarly styled
games
number three superman 64.
[Music]
this game can sit proudly or perhaps not
so proudly
alongside tony hawk 5 as one of the
worst of all time
now we don't expect masterful physics
from the nintendo 64 but the ones found
in superman 64 are notoriously awful
even controlling superman is a nigh
impossible task
as he moves like a tank and generally
acts in a totally unresponsive manner
[Music]
even completing the opening tutorial is
an exercise in tedium and relentless
frustration
and then there is the constant clipping
found throughout the game and the
absolutely abhorrent collision detection
that makes the finished product feel
like little more than a beta
which it essentially was
number 2 the elder scrolls 5 skyrim
much like fallout new vegas or most
bethesda games for that matter
skyrim is far greater than the sum of
its glitchy buggy physics-defying parts
skyrim's countless technical issues are
part of its charm as the literally
thousands of youtube videos can attest
in fact all the memes and videos likely
aided in the game's commercial success
the physics engine is a complete mess
full of unexpressive faces
awkward movements and a disappointingly
flat combat system
that will have everyone turning to magic
or sneaking
and in few other games can you ride a
horse up a mountain but then again
such is the undeniable magic of skyrim
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few dishonorable mentions
turbo dismount even more ragdoll
goofiness
fifa series the franchise is full of
notoriously awful bugs
[Music]
surgeon simulator another youtube bait
game
famous for its wonky physics

number one big rigs over the road racing
much has been written about big rigs
over the years primarily because
it's one of the worst video games ever
released it's
technically a racing game as you race
through various checkpoints along a
truck route
in reality it's the most unintentionally
hilarious video game ever made
there is a complete lack of collision
detection so the truck can phase through
every single object it comes across
there is no sense of elevation or
off-road traction
allowing the truck to speed up steep
mountains without impediment
you break the sound barrier while
reversing and
should you be so inclined you can do
blurry donuts in your big rig
the game's physics are broken in as much
as there are no physics to speak of

number one pick for this list head over
