Really really bad movies develop cult followings, why not really bad video games?

Movies like "Plan 9 from Outer Space" have become cult favorites because they're so bad. Why isn't the same true for games like superman 64, or any superman game or batman game?Really really bad movies develop cult followings, why not really bad video games?
Not true some bad games do have a cult following, Such as Conkers Bad Fur Day which had horrible reviews but remains many gamers personal favorite, Red Steel for the Wii, and The Matrix are another example.



Bad games are sometimes unplayable, whereas with movies, you can still watch it from begining to end with no problems, a video game isn't as easy.
ever heard of the Sims?Really really bad movies develop cult followings, why not really bad video games?
What are you talking about? I LOVE burger time AND pitfall! Any video game that you can never actually WIN but just repeat the same exact screens at a faster and faster pace is totally worthless, but also totally culterific!Really really bad movies develop cult followings, why not really bad video games?
Ummm Mr. Pixel?

Well the crap cult movies thing i dont get either. Everyone that i know is aware that crap games are crap. The only crap game i liked was Shadow of the Beast on the megadrive/genesis. This game was the biggest pile of shite ever committed to cartridge but the soundtrack was bloody addictive :)
cause that doesnt make any sense. Example: World of Warcraft, most people just play the game, not worrying about everyday life (or theyre job, if they have one) and you can create a cultt, yet people are even freakier on it, they call em guilds.

im just kidding, there is no reason to make cults surrounding games, they are just ment for fun, if we made cults surrounding games, we would be attaching chainsaws to machine guns and trying to kill eachother (Gears of War).
There are some "bad" video games out there that have their fans. It's probably less common than for movies, though, because video games are so interactive. It's harder for a bad one to have replayable qualities.
