"The Room" of Videogames
Games that I've seen being referred to as "The Room of Videogames".
These games aren't necessarily the worst games of all time (but they are all pretty fuckin bad don't get me wrong), but they capture a similar energy to Tommy Wiseau's The Room where they tried to be something epic and serious but just fall flat on their face, in such a mesmerising way that they manage to attain an ironic/semi-ironic fanbase that appreciates just how strange these works are.

YIIK wins the contest for the most comparisons made to The Room by FAR. Nothing else even comes close.
And by extension, pretty much every game directed by David Cage.
Not as bad as the other games on this list, Harvester has massive The Room energy about it.
