Can anyone name a shitty PC port?

Console ports are famous for how bad they can get, often simply being an afterthought with almost no work going into them.

So I've been thinking...

Are there any games that were made on PC and ported to console in such a half-assed way?

NBA 2K, they released it with locked and unchangeable controller configuration. It doesn't even tell you which exact key it is on a keyboard but instead it tells you "X", "R1" and etc. Luckily they already fixed it when I started playing. It has happened both ways during the series.

Minecraft: weird controls and cut down functionality.

Sims(every version): Cut down functionality(no 3rd party content)

GTA V 360/PS3: removed content and severely cutdown graphics

Just Cause 3: Hardware cant handle the game.

 

These come to mind.

Wasn't GTA V orginally for PS3/360 to begin with back some 2-3 odd years ago?

It was originally released on the 360/PS3, but compared to the XB1/PS4/PC versions its heavily cut down and kinda broken. I suspect Rockstar made the full version of GTA V, but had to cut it down so it would work on the "current gen" consoles(at the time), since the XB1/PS4 were released after GTA V.

 

 

Oh yeah OP I have 2 more to add to the list:

CoD MW2 on the DS: nothing like the regular CoD MW2, mainly the alt story was a joke

Little Big Planet PSP edition: Very cut down, short story, and had little to do with the PS3 version of LBP.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

Oh, you didn't know I was asking about the reverse?

ah, he's talkin' about PC games ported to console, pretty much anything by Bethesda runs like shit on PlayStation for some reason (Oblivion being the exception).

I would say CS:GO, but it actually runs and looks fine.

Uhhh.... X360/PS3 Battlefield 4?

Problem with CS:GO was that it was 720.30 when it should have been 60. and like TF2 not getting any updates.

That's why I asked this question, it seems like a rare occurrence.
