I think "S.C.A.T.: Special Cybernetic Attack Team" will always hold a special place in my heart for awful game names. You can't tell me someone didn't know exactly what they were doing when they came up with the title though.
In more recent times I have to go with the piece of crap game I downloaded off of PSN this weekend - "Exceleration of Surguri X-Edition"
Also, anything with two colons deserves a mention
Final Fantasy X2 adds on top of the ridiculousness of having a 10th Final Fantasy, in the first place, by adding a 2 modifier to 10.
Mortyr 2093 - 1944. I don't even know what that's supposed to mean.
Anything with "The Official" in the title
NBA (that's the entire title)

Divine Divinity.
Ar Tonelico: Melody of Metafalica. (I see the series is known for stupid-ass names)
Metafalicia sounds like enjoying internet porn.

Yeah Mario is their last name.
You know I went through my collection, and could not find a dumber name thatn the one in the starter link. Unless you start going into names like "Yager" which don't tell you anything about the game.
If you take your route though there are some games that we take for granted that have completely stupid names -- like Metal Gear Solid.

Yeah as I was thinking about it, you've got games like NIER. What the hell is that supposed to tell you?
If you want to go back to an old obscure NES game, what does anyone think the game "Nuts and Milk" is about?
And then there's just "Ballz."
Custer's Revenge -- now there is a good title. It tells you everything you need to know.
Offensive as hell since the point of the game was to rape Indian women tied to cactus, but yes the title did pretty much say it all.
I guess they could have spelled it out. Custer's Revenge: Rape on the Cactus.
You know what my biggest problem with Custer's Revenge is? It's not the rape. It's that you had to dodge arrows. You were Custer's ghost for god's sake! Why the hell would you have to worry about arrows? I mean, unless they were special spiritual arrows blessed by some tribal shaman I highly doubt they'd hurt a ghost.
Hopefully they'll get it right in the remake.

It's almost as if you read the book series that followed the release of the game. Or wrote some fan-fic.
Oh yeah it's all fanfic. I have extension collection of Atari 2600 fanfic that I've written or collected. I'm most proud of my crime drama/prison escape story "Kaboom."
Is said fanfic of an...erotic nature? If so, I'm interested.
Mark Ecko's Getting Up.
Might not seem so crazy at all (unless you're unfamiliar with what getting up means, in which case it would sound pretty damn stupid) but the whole concept ofr Marck Ecko's name being stuck on a graffiti game is hilarious to begin with. But not too unexpected.
The full name is funnier.
Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure
Who the fuck is Marc Ecko?
Street fashion designer.
This has to be one of the dumbest. Give me your nominees.
