Warzone - one of the best commando clones on Amiga (Great for TWO players)

I agree! I played this over and over again together with my cousin and it used to be a lot of fun (although we never completed the game...we only reached the last level).

But to be honest: I can't really remember any really bad games... I even enjoyed playing Robocop.
This may be because I haven't played THAT many games and sticked to the Amiga-Joker and Powerplay charts back then...

Wizmo <- anyone needs a gamemap for this "game" ?

Dyter-07 <- gross

International Truck Racing <- really stupid.

Top Banana <- I almost got a seizure when I saw that.... whatever it is

etc...

VIZ - omg this game sucked so much balls
http://hol.abime.net/1591

Most zepellin games did aswell- I remember getting Ed the Duck on the Amstrad and kicking it, and then there was an above racer that I took back-

Thomas the Tank Engine 2 - this "sequel" uber sucked compared to the first game
http://hol.abime.net/1380

Detroit- How many of you looked at it and thought- "This looks great" ... but then realised how hard it was to actually work... I bought it later on the PC (some budget CD thing) thinking it might be alright after all,... nah ... didnt know how to work nothing

Thundercats- Erm, a platformer that really sucks!

Whirligig and Quadralien are two games I remember for their badness in the gameplay department. Quadalien just didn't make any sense. It was complete wrongness.

One of the worst games concerning graphics I remember was the german game QUIWI,
http://hol.abime.net/2271
although quiz games are generally a interesting game concept too.
But this one had very poor graphics in comparison to my other games, so me and my friends at the age of 16 had a good laugh, when looking at this.

Double Dragon a crap game? It´s a arcade classic!!!!!!! Maybe the amiga version lacks the music, but have all the sfx.

sw2001 · 29 May 2005, 04:52

I really don't want to go through all the postings here to find out if the game is already included, but one of the worst games ever was M.U.D.S. (Mean Ugly Dirty Sports). It was included in a magazine and I never could find out whats the point of that game. Everything was aweful, even the music

Mick_AKA · 29 May 2005, 11:27

Ive always been quite into battlefield simulators, worst one i ever played on the miggy was Waterloo, just an awful awful game. Compared to something like Fields of Glory its nothing.

EmuChicken · 29 May 2005, 12:15

The Ball Game

Just wanted to add another :-)

macce2 · 29 May 2005, 22:55

Well, CodyJarrett, I don't totally agree with you about your list. Run The Gauntlet, for example, is actually quite funny game.. ;-)

Apart Mercs, everything made by Tiertex!
Don't forget the ICE conversions ( SCI, Cisco heat, Total carnage, ecc.)

Mortal Kombat.

Now I LOVE MK and have been a crazyperson for it since the arcade first came out, but crikey crikey, it was not very nice to play. The colours were gross, there was no gore (GAH!), and tell me how you can translate 5 attack buttons into a 2 button joystick (not all of us were lucky enough to have gamepads).. so.. yer.. it broke my heart.

So I just played my PC version and my SNES version which had a gore cheat code

DamienD · 01 July 2006, 00:35

comawhite015, like you I was very disappointed with many arcade conversions on the Amiga (especially the fighters like Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat)...

Off topic but you need to check out MAME... All you dreams will come true

Hey Cody, is there any Amiga game you haven't played?

My vote would have to be for International Soccer Challenge. Oh my god was it shit

I liked the MK Amiga conversions. The first one didn't have the prettiest graphics or presentability, but the gameplay was great fun - it was faster then the arcade. And there was gore in both the Amiga Mortal Kombat games. MKII on Amiga was even better, I felt, because the graphics, sounds and music were superior to the first conversion. I also felt that they did a pretty decent job with the joystick controls - all the moves were pretty much there.

I was disappointed with the SF conversions, which had crap gameplay. It was a blasphemy to everything Street Fighter.

Tolismlf · 07 August 2006, 14:46

oh come on..SF2 was ok for an A500..Titus the fox is a nice game... And Bart vs space mutants is nice too. Why don't you mention BEAST 1&2 with Dragons lair-as BEAST 1&2 are 2 totally unplayable grapic/scrolling demos

Robocop was crap. Speccy version is much better than the Amiga one. Most of ST ports are crap. Double Dragon comes in my mind.

s2325 · 25 September 2006, 10:32

Renegade III - crappy gameplay, maybe it's unfinished (no sound or music).
Heart of the Dragon - just terrible, graphics & gameplay :/

Well it's not that beast 1 & 2 are unplayable, they're just plein too hard for you

But i recognise the collision masks on these games are not perfect, especially on the 1st one.
