It's a very common perspective for bad game aficionados. Intentionally poor games are parodies and/or jokes.

Anyone can make a bad game. Not many can make a truly excellent one.

So when ranking bad games, intentionally bad ones need something special to elevate them beyond parody status.

Unintentionally bad games are fascinating and often straight up funny. A lot of the fun is discussing all the ways it is bad and how on earth it could possibly have been released.

The same goes for bad film and/or music. You'll find it's the normal perspective.

But everyone has their own rules. You're entitled to your own set of rules.
