Virginia boldly tells a story with no dialogue, which some critics loved-RPG Fan called it "intensely intimate, powerful and thought-provoking"-while Kill Screen gave it a 30, and spent a lot of time talking about Soviet film theory to explain why Virginia is boring.
(I say yes, and who cares, and get over it). Dear Esther naturally got the same criticisms, bringing up the old "is it really a game?" argument. Our review of Sunset said its "themes, setting, and plot are plenty interesting, but the player's interaction with them feels incongruous." But user reviews on Metacritic hated it, some dismissively calling it a walking simulator. The interesting games on this list aren't controversial for their sexual content, but for being the kinds of games critics tend to like and some gamers tend to deride. The website Game Chronicles helps explain the standard deviation with a 90, writing "Relax, pick up that bong, and enjoy the ride." This isn't Leisure Suit Larry - it's just annoying softcore porn." The score? A 39.

It's worse to take one of the great PC game franchises and ruin the hell out of it. As a PC Gamer reviewer wrote back in 2004: "It's one thing to make a bad game - that I can forgive. The utterly distasteful Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude, by comparison, I think really earned its place on the list. Really, how can you listen to this theme song and not just laugh this game out the door. Singles: Flirt Up Your Life snuck onto this list as a repeat customer! What was controversial 15 years ago looks pretty tame-though still completely stupid-today.

X3: Reunion - Review average 73.4, standard deviation 18.9. Weirdly enough, Leisure Suit Larry shows up again in the most controversial PC games on Metacritic-those with review scores all over the map. Most of the user reviews came after that release, and are likely more positive thanks to post-launch updates. It was overshadowed by Counter-Strike: Source not long after. But if you look back, Condition Zero, largely a remake of 1.6, was not well received by critics and was delayed multiple times, finally releasing in 2004. The most surprising of the bunch today is probably Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, given Counter-Strike's reputation and enduring popularity.
