I don't think anyone can FACTUALLY claim "This is the worst game in the history of video games, and that's it".

Not true at all. To make a factual claim, you have to have content, and games have lots of content to compare. From gameplay features to production values.
Even if I hate a game, I won't call it the worst game ever. Why? Because the game may still compare really well to predecessors and the norm of the genre.
You can't fight opinion, but you can fight facts if they are false, without looking like a dumbass.
Then again, this has no place in the discussion. Comparing games to Art is pretty much a lost cause. Art isn't defined factually. Its an emotional experience, and I have to say Heavy Rain and Riven have fulfilled that sort of thing.
