I actually had this
I spent weeks thinking I was missing the point and that there was more to it. Hours upon hours searching for something I was missing. I will never get those hours back.
Very pissed off 10 year old.

You thinkg that was bad,
you should have seen Ghostbusters on the Comodore 64.
30seconds to a minutes of playing then a good 10-15 minutes of the car driving while the next part of the game loaded.
Huge. Fucking. Waste. Of. Time.

Yep!!
I had that as well. Although I did quite like it. I can still remember the pathetically awful music that went with it.

Remember
they thought this was going to be so big that they made more copies than there were Atari consoles.
They ended up encasing them in concrete and burying it in Mexico.

There have been, and still are, many many cases of morons who completely forget the point of a 'game'
is that it is meant to provide some sort of gaming, like skill, point scoring and some sort of challenge, ET is held up as the worst game ever 'cos it had none of these so there was absolutely no point 'playing' it, yet still, there are multimillion pound games out even now where this simple lesson has not been learnt.
The last one I remember thinking this about that I can name off the top of my head was one of the Metal Gear Solid sequels, all cut sequences and pretty graphics and no feckin game play, I was so disappointed...
