Games so bad they shame your colection

[guitarmas]

Pretty much everything I ever tried on Jag was a steaming pile of dung.  I tried the motorcycle game, it was awful.  The Checkered flag game was put to shame by Pole Position an entire decade before!!!  Kasumi Ninja should have come with a bag to hold all its suck.

 

Cybermorph has to be the pile to end all piles.  It actually smells across the room.  Seriously.  "Where'd you learn to fly" should have been the system's slogan, cuz when you done, chuck the system out the window!

 

 

I've been collecting Jag games for about 2 years now, have about 25 games now and have yet to find one that I enjoy enough to play for more than 5 minutes. I've heard so much about this "Alien vs. Predator" game so I decided to buy it. The fun factor and the graphics are suppose to be great or something?(oh the graphics, dont get me started on the expectations that people set for those who don't own it yet). Yada yada, I can go on and on about this system.

It just sux and I can't stop collecting stuff for it! Do I have a problem?

[guitarmas]

I take that back....I played BattleMorph for about 1hr 1/2. But that's pretty much it.

Yea and there's a resion why, in 83 as the Famicom was made it was release a year before the The Crash of 84 and once Nintendo was about to release it in the US in 85 they wanted the NES not to look too much like a Toy then a video game console so they beef-it up abit and gave it a home-entertamint feel to it.

[Agent00fuzz]

The game stinking up my collection is, Back to the future for the NES. YUK!!!! Either that or Rocket Ranger for the NES.

I think I mentioned it before, but I have to mention its crappiness again. Enter The Matrix... Wow talk about a game in the wrong time and place. 8 years earlier it would have been revolutionairy. Now considering the budget, it is perhaps the worst current generation title.... Tremendous budget yet zero inovation or use of technology. The ET of the current generation if you will. I had to get rid of it, it was so bad.

I don't know why you and possibly others are bashing Enter The Matrix. I mean it's been a while since I've played it but it wasnt that bad. I actually enjoyed it.

Then again I really liked the movie too. So I guess if you weren't really into the movie, then you probably wouldn't have been into the game as well.

Loved the movies and Im a big Matrix fan. The only redeeming factor of the game was the extra movie content. Otherwise it was terrible. It didn't look good, it didn't play well, it had clunky animations, horrible driving sequences, I could go on. Like I said, if it was a game last generation it would have been fine, but stack it up next to other current generation games and it falls way short. Then you look at the budget and you have to laugh at the end result. The best part of the actual game itself was the hacking portion and it was a mini game. I could go on, but if you've played other current generation games in the same style you will see that it falls short. The Matrix max payne mod is a far better matrix game, and its a free mod!!! Not to mention Max Payne did bullet time better than the movie liscenced game at least a year earlier...

I didn't try Enter the Matrix but the hacking around with a dos like command things sounded interesting...was it

That was the best part of the game IMHO. That and the extra videos. Ive played many other thrid person games that are better, and many bullet time games that better capture the "Matrix" feel. Hacking with the DOS window to open up content was fun for a few hours. I beat the game and decided not to beat it again using Jada Pincket. Though there is a FMV of her and that other chick from the movie kissing...

 

All in all you can get a better third person action game and better bullet time elsewhere. It is the opposite of the movies its based on. They had plenty of high technology that pushed the industry forward. The game used no serious current technology and it actually sets the industry backwards. Tons of $$$ invested and Tons of marketing = Lots of initial sales. The quality led to tons of returns and a quick drop in price to budget land. Just another sad movie tie in game with a ton of potential. Shoot, liscence the Max Payne Engine and rework it with the Matirx story???

Umm... Word Zapper for the VCS is pretty damn terrible.

I think the worst game I own is the three in one Odyssey 2 cart that was packed in with it. That has to be the overall winner, I mean it is actually 3 games and combined they still don't equal one good game. Come on, Cryptologic should win by itself. I mean a hangman game with no one player option... why even have a game version then; paper is cheaper and I have lots of that. Was there really a guy at the Odyssey production place who said "Boy, I'd sure like to make a one player option, but I can't even begin to see how that would work. You'd need like a list of words....and then you'd have to scramble them...you'd need some kind of program thing to put them in...nope, some things not even man can accomplish."

No, you don't have a problem. One must really, really, really try to love the Jag or he will hate it. The hardware was fine for that system, but the games outright sucked for the most part.

[sega saturn x]

Yeah enter the amtrix was disapinting but after i replayed it i wasent so upset and it was better. Its just average is all not great but not bad and why the fell is shaq fu so common? Did people actully buy this game?!

[SwedenLynxer]

Atariboy2600, I don't see any Atari Lynx in your collection?

 

Worst Lynx game: Tournament Cyberball, World Class Soccer and Dirty Larry

[sega saturn x]

He has one he keeps it next to his bed this is like the third time i have seen some one say that.

[madmjennifer]

THEY ALL SUCKED PAUL BUNYANS GIANT LAMBERJACK BALLS!

heres a few of them

lester the unlikely

zoop

sim ant

last time i buy a game without a little backround on them, defintly brings my collection to shame  

 

I can't vouch for the others, but I can most definitely say Lester the Unlikely for SNES does not suck balls, lumberjack or otherwise. Sure, Lester's a little awkward at first and you want to smash him against the rocks on purpose to punish his girlish gait and hesitance, but if you give him a while he becomes more adept and tolerable.

Ah...next to his bed...I see. Well if he was a real Lynx fanatic, like me, he should keep the Lynx IN his bed every night

[Vic George 2K3]

I havn't played it in forever but I can recall HATING Hydlide for the NES

 

The name of the game sounds like it came from Simon & Garfunkel's "The Boxer" where they sing that "lie-a-lie, lie-a-lie-lie, lie-a-lie" part

[Vic George 2K3]

Absolute bottom-of-the-barrel for me was Sorceror and Star Fox for the 2600. Only glad that I paid a buck each for those losers, and now they're history.

[bergbros2]

Swordquest: Earthworld. My all time waste of time most hated game. I hate this "game" so much. Hate it, hate it, hate it. Hate how Atari made an unplayable game to cash in on a half baked contest. Hate it how I was suckered into thinking I can actually get more than two clues. Hated that there was absolutely no payoff if you won. A game that not only I got rid off, but hummed into the Schuykill River. Yeah, it stunk up the collection.

I quite like Lester the Unlikely as well.
