Apparently, naming video games is challenging. Maybe it's because there are over 60,000 trademarked game titles in existence, making for slim pickings. Or, maybe it's because distilling a captivating virtual experience down to just a small handful of words is seemingly impossible.

Whatever the case, we've seen some dumb game names over the years, and we're going to talk about 15 of the worst offenders below.

1. 70's Robot Anime Geppy-X: The Super Boosted Armor

Platform: PlayStation

Year Released: 1999

Why It's Stupid: I get the impression that whoever named this game was trying as hard as possible to include a bunch of keyword for Google SEO. Well, I have bad news: nobody remembers this game because it sucked.

2. Attack Of The Mutant Camels

Platform: Commodore 64

Year Released: 1983

Why It's Stupid: This one is more of a tragedy of game concept rather than naming, but that doesn't excuse a company approving such a name. Interestingly enough, this game is featured in the Smithsonian Institution's "The Art Of Video Games" exhibit. Nobody knows why, not even the Smithsonian.

3. Billy The Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing

Platforms: PC, PS2, Wii

Year Released: 2006

Why It's Stupid: Rated one of the worst games of last-gen, this must have used black magic to come up with such a stupid name.

4. If It Moves, Shoot it!

Platform: PC

Year Released: 1989

Why It's Stupid: Apparently Broderbund Studios didn't get the memo that you aren't supposed to describe your game in the same way as its tutorial. I guess on the plus side it's very clear what you need to do in this game.

5. Keith Courage In Alpha Zones

Platform: TurboGrafx-16

Year Released: 1988

Why It's Stupid: Who is Keith Courage, anyway? And what in God's name is an Alpha Zone? Pass.

6. Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue

Platform: PS4

Year Released: 2017

Why It's Stupid: I've tried to decipher what the name means, but every time I do I get a headache. To make matters worse, Square Enix chose to use roman numerals for the 2, but regular number lettering for the 8. Is this a puzzle we're supposed to solve? 

6. Leisure Suit Larry 3: Passionate Patti In Pursuit Of The Pulsating Pectorals

Platform: PC

Year Released: 1989

Why It's Stupid: Don't get it twisted: this game was named this way intentionally. And that's why I'm so triggered.

7. Ninja Baseball Bat Man

Platform: Arcade

Year Released: 1993

Why It's Stupid: DC Comics should totally sue the company behind this game for using BatMan in its name. That's the only way I'll be able to move on.

8. Ninja Hamster

Platform: Commodore 64

Year Released: 1988

Why It's Stupid: Ninjas are overplayed, and hamsters are one of the worst pets in the domesticated animal kingdom. In other words, I don't want to play this game.

9. Rex Nebular And The Cosmic Gender Bender

Platform: PC

Year Released: 1992

Why It's Stupid: Just look at how fast Rex is running away from the game's title. Can you blame him?

10. Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Episode 5: 8-bit is Enough

Platform: PC, PS3, Wii

Year Released: 2008

Why It's Stupid: This game currently holds the record for longest game title in history. It's so long that some databases are unable to house all its letters. Not cool.

11. Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together

Platform: PS1, Saturn, SNES

Year Released: 1995

Why It's Stupid: This is actually one of the greatest games of all-time, which makes its name that much more painful. I totally get what they were going for, but it doesn't sound good at all, especially for such a seriously toned game.

12. The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II: Rise of the Witch King

Platform: PC, X360

Year Released: 2006

Why It's Stupid: Putting two sets of colons in a video game title should be outlawed. Shame on you, EA.

13. Tongue Of The Fatman

Platform: Commodore 64, Genesis, PC

Year Released: 1989

Why It's Stupid: This game was intended to be edgy and funny. It failed in both regards, and is considered one of the worst games of all-time. Activision definitely doesn't like that its name was printed on every game box, so be sure to remind them constantly.

15. Touch Dic

Platform: DS

Year Released: 2005

Why It's Stupid: Yes, this is a real game. Yup, it's for the Nintendo DS. No, I have no idea what they were thinking. By the way, the "dic" is supposed to be short for "dictionary". Wow.
