PC Games on Steam: 13 of the worst
Steam is great for PC gamers. A seemingly endless list of everything from AAA blockbusters to tiny indie releases, some of which use the platform to break through to the big time.
But standards dropped when Valve introduced Greenlight in 2012 and offloaded much of the curation of fringe titles to users.
The push to support indie developers with Greenlight was laudable, but it also seems to have allowed some very questionable practices to flourish, which Valve seems only now, belatedly, to be trying to stamp out. For example:
As a result, keeping this article down to just 13, which you lucky people can buy on Steam, proved exceptionally hard. So please, Gabe, don’t leave it until spring before you start a thorough ‘Steam clean’.
13. Infestation: Survivor Stories Classic /WarZ, £6.99/$9.99
Owners ( according to Steam Spy ): 1,041,642
This is a game you may well have heard of for all the wrong reasons. Originally called WarZ , perhaps to piggyback on the relative popularity and success of DayZ , the game promised what can only be described as completely non-existent features. When people who had paid good money for it complained on the WarZ Steam forum, they were (they claim) banned.
Remarkably, Valve, the laid back company that runs Steam, intervened and the game was taken down. But not for long. The developer simply tweaked a few things, removed some of its more egregious claims, changed its name and re-pimped it on Steam.
This, as you might have guessed, is yet another zombie survival horror. Except you’re not just trying to survive attacks by hordes of zombies, but from other players online.
However, the mechanics are poor, and the zombies not especially challenging (except in sheer volume). Furthermore, the game in its heyday was infested with cheats, while legitimate players who complained said they were banned.
That said, setting the game to Offenbach’s Can does offer a whole new entertaining perspective …
Steam reviews :
« Got banned after five hours of gameplay. Submitted post on their forums for a reason why. That was years ago and I still don’t know why. 10/10 best customer service. »

« The less than two hours of my gameplay was riddled with hackers using no clip, aim bot, super jump, super strength, unlimited health, no detection etc. I died countless times in 30 minutes from hackers shooting from more than three miles away, through walls. The mechanics in the game are poor, as well as the mêlée combat. »

Ｊ１磐田が１４日、静岡・磐田市内の練習グラウンドで始動。横浜Ｍから完全移籍した元日本代表ＭＦ中村俊輔（３８）に注目が集まった。 （サンケイスポーツ） 「いよいよ始まったという感じ。寒い中で大勢の人に足を運んでもらってありがたいですね」 練習前には一時吹雪となる荒れ模様の天気。それでも昨年の始動日の３・５倍となるファン約７００人がスタンドを埋めた。２０１５年ラグビーＷ杯で活躍した元ヤマハ発動機・五郎丸歩（３０）の昨年の始動日（約８００人）に匹敵。ランニングやパス回しなど約１時間半のメニューをこなす俊輔をロックオンした。 “俊輔ラブ”の名波浩監督（４４）は「より多くのファンに見られることがプラスになるし、海外を含めた経験を話してくれれば若い選手には刺激になる」と俊輔効果に期待。この日ゲーム主将に指名されたＤＦ大井も「注目されることで、チームのレベルが上がるチャンス」と大歓迎した。 数々の修羅場をくぐり抜けてきた中村俊は「もっとコミュニケーションをとっていきたい。コンディションやメンタルは徐々に上げていく」。名門復活のキーマンになりそうだ。 （望月文夫）

大学入試センター試験２日目の１５日、雪に見舞われた各地の試験場は、交通機関の運休や遅れが相次ぎ、試験開始時間の繰り下げなど対応に追われた。三重や広島など５府県の１２大学で試験場全体の試験開始時間を１時間繰り下げたほか、遅れて来た受験生ごとに開始時間を繰り下げる大学が続出した。 午前１１時現在、繰り下げの影響があったのは志願者数で約１万２千人にのぼっており、大学入試センターによると「過去１０年で最大の規模」（中嶋光穂総務課長）という。 同センターによると、試験場全体で繰り下げたのは、志願者数４６６９人の三重大をはじめ三重県内が６校、広島修道大（志願者数１２９９人）など広島県内が３校、愛知、京都、兵庫の各府県が１校ずつ。 兵庫県の姫路独協大（姫路市）など３府県の４校では、雪で到着が遅れた受験生ごとに試験開始を繰り下げた。 このほか、福島大（福島市）でも、ＪＲ東北線の車両故障で運休が発生したため、試験開始を１時間繰り下げた。
