Just Cause. I actually like the series as a kind of brain-off game, but I always read the name as "just cuz".

I hate SuperGiant's naming scheme. Bastion? Transistor? Pyre(i couldn't even remember this one)?? Hades??? Cmon man, your company isn't called Giant but SuperGiant, make it stand out as your company's name!

Also VVVVVV. No one will notice this game if it come out today. Prey(2017) is the prime example of this.

“Echoes of the Plum Grove”. Sounds like they asked ChatGPT and went with the first suggestion.

that sounds like a parody wuxia move

Pure genius though. Gets the first spot of any game list it's featured in, when sorting alphabetically.

Halo Infinite. Numbers are for mainline games. Subtitles are for spinoffs.

All of them that are so generic I gotta add "the videogame" to when I'm googling.

Genital Jousting. Its a perfectly fitting name for what the game is. But its deeply unsettling.
