Making something "so bad, it's good" actually requires a little finesse. If you succeed, it's usually for one of two reasons:
1. You made something bad, and it's actually just plain ol' bad, but it gains a fan base of irony-loving fans. Most likely with ironic facial hair, drinking PBR, and... hipsters. I'm talking about hipsters.
2. You made something based on how bad something ELSE was, but add an element of fourth wall-breaking nods to your audience. "Hey guys... remember Darth Vader screaming 'NOOOOOO!!' at the end of Episode III? How ridiculous was that?"
The second element is basically satire. It's insufferably easy to do poorly (eg. all the "Scary Movie" flicks), but doing it well takes a lot if work and insight.
Good news! Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon does it …
