I know we are mostly talking on original 5h17 games, not ports, but the sheer disappointment on Black Tiger and Outrun are still burning badly for me

I nominate Insanity Fight, that intro speech is haunting me for over 30 years

Black Tiger actually looked really nice!! They'd got the graphics down to a decent 16 colour palette.. it's just that when it started moving things went seriously wrong

Edit - just watched the longplay on YouTube - just over 4 mins! Honest. End pic is where it looks like you are about to cut off the gang leaders mohawk with scissors! |

Also: the enemies explode in a fireball when you hit them (or rather, when you hit the air next to them), the intro screen is a bit weird, to say the least, and, last but not least, I got this as a birthday gift in 1990; my parents paid 399 SEK for it, which would amount to almost €40, not including 30 years of inflation. There are a lot of things that were better in the previous century, but the price of really, really bad software has come down a lot. |

There really should be a C64 section on this board; then there'd be a lot of fun games to vote for as the worst.
My vote: BMX Ninja Strange no one has yet ported that one to the Amiga... |

I did have Street Gang for the C64 - glad the Amiga version never came my way
Prices were ridiculous looking back for some software. Crazy As mentioned loads of bad Amiga coin-op conversions, the scrolling on Bionic Commando for one. Street Fighter another. OutRun already mentioned (got it for Xmas - soooo disappointed) Others - Cliffhanger, Speedboat Assassin, Legend of the Lost, Fotress Underground, Crazy Cars, The Running Man, Last Action Hero, The Godfather (what a waste of a licence) |

Thats easy : CAPITAL PUNISHMENT !
I always try to be positive but this game; it was the worst peace of overhyped shit i have ever played. (i still want my money back !) It was buggy beyond believe, played like absolute trash and could not be finished !!!! WTF !!!! People give Rise of the Robots shit, but compared to CAPITAL PUNISHMENT, Rise of the Robots is a Masterpiece XD (and that says something) See people, all those overhyped stuff leads mostly to crap !!! International Karate Plus kicks the shit out of those two "games" and from the technically perspective, Elfmania takes the first place. For me, Capital Punishment was really, a "CAPITAL PUNISHMENT". The biggest, overhyped peace of trash ever released on AMIGA. I would rather play the Town with no name, at least, it is honest and kinda funny Last edited by Torti-the-Smurf; 21 April 2021 at 14:07.

Question is with such a huge library of games to choose from, who would ever be able to make up their minds? |

In my opinion, honestly, a game that is still being sold, "Desert Racing of Bardos". I played the demo because I love "Flyin' High" and similar racers, but Bardos is unplayable. Granted, the graphics are nice to look at, but you can't steer your car right or keep it on the track - if you can even see where the track is Anyone who tried it knows what I mean! I'm so happy I tried it out before buying the full-price version.

I grew up with that same games pack when my bro first got the Amiga and if you ask me Days of Thunder is a lot worse. At least in BTTFPII I was able to play the fucking game and complete a few times. Days of Thunder you can't even drive the car That makes it worse IMO. I believe I've played worse than Days of Thunder though. Just need to think a little bit more before I list the games. Wrath of Gwendor is pretty shit too. Think DOT is worse still though. |

For me Street Fighter 2 was a massive disappointment due to lack of buttons, Nightbreed was awful and Days of Thunder was a pile of plop as well.
