The Worst Amiga Games Thread! - Page 16

Talkie · 27 January 2008, 12:46

As I mentioned in another thread recently, my favorite title for the worst
video game ever is an amiga CDTV-CD32 title named Psycho Killer.

You will be done in 10 minutes playing this, mostly clicking a few directions, and the game has absolutely no replay value. It receives
extra failure points for pretending to be so much more than what it offered.

Cheers,

Talkie

Has anyone mentioned Franko: The Crazy Revenge!? Longplay can be seen [ Show youtube player ]. The introduction is magnificent.

Thats totally awesome! Now i can stop playing pinball on the Atari 2600!

Note to mods - How about someones fixen the english in the title. Worsest thread title ever.

edit - oh shit, now it makes sense. (drinky too muchey)

Hope it was in a similar thread elsewhere and not here that Ive written this before, but a vote or two would definately have to go to Inertia Drive.
Was so bad that a few friends not only accused me of having made it with seuck, but proclaimed it was one of my worst seuck games ever

Another vote would have to go to Azture (I think thats what it was called). I seem to recall the C+VG review mentioning something about the games protagonist looking like he vomitted green stuff after flapping his arms about.

C'mon people. It was supposed to be cheesy - some samples and graphics art reveal tongue in cheek attitude. Besides underneath crude graphics it has a decent playability, imho better than those Amiga renditions of Double Dragon. The games I truly hated were Dylan Dog/ Diabolik series, Sierra's VGA ports which humiliated Amiga in front of PC users (16 colors at best, sluggish performance even with HD).

Streetfighter II by US Gold, seriously the conversion was a horrible one. The only plus side was the game was cheaper than the console equivalent but it in my opinion really was a terrible conversion.

Amiga Joker were rather generous when they awarded it 10%

Have to agree with this. Have to remeber when dealing with crappy games that there are so unbeliavable bad games that you'll have to be careful when making the list of baddies.

Persecutors - http://hol.abime.net/1030 You can not recognize which pipes are background and which are not. There are also invisible walls in unexpected places.

just seen this thread,"microcosm" and "rise of the robots" are at the top of my shite list because they where commercial products.

interestingly theres a "the 100 worst games of all time" at the botom of this thread, and strangley big rigs was near the bottom of that list,strange as that game was epicly shite and should of been near the top of the list and was much much much more shite for buck than rise of the robots.

Yeesh! The epitome of outdated, but that is no excuse since in 1987 we had far better games than this dreck! Nine levels of cheesy backgrounds, mediocre sprites, terrible control, godawful collision detection - everything that is bad. Just pass this one by!

Has anyone brought up Wizard's Castle by Kingsoft ? A terrible terrible game where the only good thing is the title screen ilustration, which seems fairly impossible to complete due to the last screen being, well...impossible.

Well here's a few of my Amiga "sh*t game time" video reviews for starters, all about sh*t games

seems a good thread to post these on as what's up for discussion, hope you enjoy them enough to sub,...plenty more to come

Zeus.
They have ratings of sh*t on the "Sh*t-O-Meter" at the end of each video.

Rolling Thunder...

... where to start?

1) Small sprites in a small area.
2) Game running at almost 4 FPS.
3) Jerky scrolling.
4) Non-responsive controls.
5) All the enemies have all the same colors, while in the coin-op there were a lot of different ones.
6) No continues.
7) The music is a loop of the first notes of the original coin-op, making it horrible.

... can't believe there really was a magazine that pointed out almost all of this, yet still dared to say:"... we can pass over those things and say that it is a wonderful games that is going to set new stardards for the Amiga in the future!"...

BLEAH!!!!

What about Touring Car Racer? An absolute joke. Italia '90 sticks out as an especially bad football game, but the majority of Amiga football games were rubbish. I hated Striker with a particular passion - far too slow, limited pitch markings, one-dimensional gameplay with no point in passing, only one tournament, and that bonkers loader which didn't go away after a reset. To think that Tim Smith reviewed that and Sensible Soccer in the same issue of Amiga Format and gave Striker 2% more.....
