Worst console port ever?

I second Resi Evil 4 as the worst port. Even the Wii version looked better than it did on the pc :S and the controls are horrible, just horrible I tells ya!

An official patch fixed the graphics shortly after release.

The controls (without mods) are shameful though.
 
Best ever game on PS2 and worst ever port on PC, by the way you can get mouse working in RE4 search in google and i am sure you will find the required loader.
Biohazard 4/Resident Evil 4 Mouse Support

Copy loader etc into main game folder. Run Loader, Setup as desired.

Although default settings seem good, and lauch the game through loader

Enjoy :)

Yeah but the mouse controls don't work anything like normal mouse controls do. It just lets you use the pad aiming with a mouse. I've tried both ways and quite honestly a pad is easier - although still awkward. And you need a 360 controller to play it properly.
 
Fair enough if a game is just plain crap, but theres far too many games that are released too early and unfinished. Fair enough if its some ambitious title like an mmo then flaws on release are to be expected, but for normal games (e.g Double Agent, RE4, Bully etc) there is no excuse. When it comes to ports, standards should be met.

Dumbed down the graphics? At release it was the best looking PC game by far! The gameplay was a step up from Morrowind as well (although this is subjective), particularly the shield/parry system. The only console element that remained in the PC version was the atrocious HUD, of which I have to fit two mods in to get a satisfactory front end in.

Did you see the pre release E3 video? Shadowing on all items? extra shaders on all items? It looks 10x better then the tripe we got.
 
The later Broken Sword games, they kept giving their instructions in terms of Triangle, Circle, X and Square, and other Playstation specific references. It also handled with the mouse as if you were using an analog pad, so Moving the mouse up and to the right would make the cursor act as if it were accellerating up and right. It's hard to explain but it was impossible to use.
