Alien Syndrome on the CPC is complete WACK!

ZEUSDAZ · 15 October 2021, 20:25

I've played some stinkers in my life that's for sure but THIS has to be one of the worst conversions I've ever played of an arcade classic, in this case I'm talking about Alien Syndrome on the Amstrad CPC.

Do any of you actually think this was worth playing let alone coughing up around £8 for back in the day,....go on, surprise us!

This has been a paid review request by "Raydor" who desperately wants me to flush this garbage down into the vault of shitness forever whilst calling out the poo-grammers.

So here you go, SGT review of Alien Syndrome on the CPC: [ Show youtube player ]

Damn it, that was what I was supposed to type but oviously left out the double o, I also used to say that several times in my ealier SGT reviews but for some reason decided to drop it,...but now you've spotted that I may just start using that name again lol.

Nice eye!
