I know we already have different categories for games, but I'd like to suggest a new one. It would be (as the topic title suggests) The FIASCO category.

I think two great examples would be the games:
Diplomacy and Commando. Both were excelent games on C64 (and probably on some other systems), but are really awefull for the PC.
Also the Mastertronic's Barbarian would fall in this category...

In short:
These would be the games so bad you simply have to play to believe it (and understand why people hate them).

This could also give a better perspective on other games. After all, we're talking about old games and are trying to bring forth the best. But you can't really understand what was good in those days, if you can't compare it with what was bad.
