What is the worst game on RU? - Page 2

Speed Coin - Arcade/Coin-Op

I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned yet.

**Kong** · 07-09-2012, 10:14 AM

I like Zool and Cutthroat Island and all of DN's troll post games.

I think it would be cool to see who can find the worst non-broken, non-cliche game.
Cliche bad games include Pac Man » Atari 2600, Superman 64, ET, Action 52 and Chetahman 2.

My nominations
Waterworld » Virtual Boy
Custer's Revenge » Atari 2600
Taboo The Sixth Sense » Nintendo
ALF » Sega
Garfield 2600
Checkered Flag » Atari Jaguar
Power Drive Rally » Atari Jaguar
Ultra Vortek » Atari Jaguar

When judging the Jaguar games keep in mind it is a 64 bit system that is nearly as powerful as the N64 that is what they did with it.

I figured someone would eventually mention Speed Coin. I like it. A little bit.

I don't really know if I would consider it a game though, it's more of an electronic toy isn't it? Anyways, it's interesting and sports some awesome music, to say the least.

Seriously, has anyone played Night Walk yet? It's far worse than Cheetah Men 2.

They promoted it as a 64-bit machine, but in actuality it is not.

"Regarding the N64 being the first true 64-bit game system released for home use, that's a correct statement. Yes, the Atari Jaguar was in stores well before the N64. However, it used a 16-bit CPU, a separate 32-bit RISC processor, and a 16-bit DSP to handle the system's processing chores. While 16+32+16 does add up to 64, those three processors combined do not add up to the power available in a single, true 64-bit model like that used in the N64. "

Yeah, that game stinks. It's still about on the same level as Cheetah Men, though.

Weren't both companies owned by the same people?

I'm not certain about that, but this made for a very interesting read:

Acclaim owned LJN.

Kind of difficult, but that game seems pretty fun to me. What's wrong with it?

Maybe it's just my horrible luck, but when I miss 8 shots in a row standing right in front of the goal, then the opponent takes the ball and shoots it from halfway across the court and makes it, it does NOT make me a happy person. Especially when something like that happens 4 times in a row. That's when I rage quit.

It's not on RU but Penn & Teller's Smoke and Mirrors for Sega CD is one of the worst games I have ever played. And I am a big P&T fan. Not quite as bad as games like Action 52 but very close.

Penn and Teller managed to make some peoples' money disappear with the game, and that's kind of like magic, isn't it?

Pitfighter on SNES....True Story.....

**Barra** · 08-08-2012, 08:19 PM

I actually dont mind speed coin. Frustrating as hell, but good game.

If it were on RU - [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyaF_gCKWsI]Plumbers dont wear ties 3DO[/ame]

**Barra** · 08-08-2012, 11:01 PM

Haha yeah. That video cracks me up everytime

It probably wouldnt be allowed on RU as its basically soft-core porn.

Time Limit - Arcade/Coin-Op Maybe I'm just doing something completely wrong, but for me this is absolutely horrid.

The game seems a little like Elevator Action but I couldn't figure out what to do. Every time I tried to get on an elevator, I missed and died. I grabbed that string thing and ended up dieing. I tried going up the escalator but soon got overwhelmed with enemies. Some folks at MARP have figured out what to do but all the replays are on really old versions of MAME so they aren't viewable for me.

It seems almost all of the big Arcade games had a rip off or two and some of these I think are at least the worst coin op games on RU.

Donkey Kong rip off: Logger - Arcade/Coin-Op

Asteroids rip off: Space Force - Arcade/Coin-Op

Pac Man rip off: Streaking - Arcade/Coin-Op

Dig Dug rip off: Gold Bug - Arcade/Coin-Op

Defender rip off: Mayday - Arcade/Coin-Op

Centipede rip off: War of the Bugs - Arcade/Coin-Op

Scramble rip off: Cosmic Avenger - Arcade/Coin-Op

I'm guessing there's more, but these are the ones I can think of.

**FudgyDRS** · 08-09-2012, 02:57 PM

I don't mind Space Forece or Cosmic Avenger.

**B-boy Lutador** · 05-13-2014, 07:47 AM

Venetian Blinds, wow.
What about Taboo: The 6th Sense for the NES?

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ----------

- Oh wait, I see Kong already mentioned that game

**DrunkN** · 05-13-2014, 11:56 AM

I'd vouch for Sixth Sense's snazzy graphics if it didn't omit South Dakota in its list of US States. Srsly.

**Dudebro** · 05-13-2014, 12:23 PM

SD is pretty easy to forget about.

**samejamesbond** · 05-13-2014, 02:29 PM

Yes but your state never gave birth to Rick James, so you'll never be that relevant.

WWF WrestleMania - Arcade/Nintendo - I know the WWF in the 80's wasn't known for having the greatest pure wrestling, but most wrestlers knew more moves than a body slam! Everything else is kicking and punching. The random AI doesn't help things, either.

M.U.S.C.L.E. - Arcade/Nintendo - As a fan of Kinnikuman (the manga/anime the M.U.S.C.L.E. toys and this game was based on), this is just horrible. Bad graphics, bad controls, bad everything. Sadly, the only good Kinnikuman games to get a US release are Ultimate Muscle on GameCube and Galactic Wrestling on the PS2.
