Reviews of sh*tty games
Brad Rice \| 7:34 PM on 06.28.2008	24 comments

I get a good amount of shitty games in the mail. I also occasionally seek out shitty games (i.e. Escape from Bug Island), just because I enjoy seeing why a game is so incredibly bad. That being said, do you guys enjoy seeing posts about why these games are so bad (in the capacity of a review), or do you not enjoy them in the least?

Weekend Reading about shitty games is coming up, btw. Which means I need to play more Yaris.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I wasn't trying to give you grief bro..I just found it odd that you were reviewing a Looney Tunes DS game. Sorta like you being punished by Niero for something and your punishment was reviewing said game...lol.

I enjoy reading any review, as I read that one..just felt out of place here. :D

Conrad Zimmerman

Absolutely. Shitty games need reviews too, probably more than good ones. And the comedic potential for coverage of games that are bad is better for ones that aren't.

MechaMonkey

Do it. It's nice to hear about games that are off the radar sometimes.

Heretic and the others just aren't ready for change, dick.

I like reading shitty game reviews. Makes my other games feel better about themselves. EBA<LT:CC?

More variety, the better. And you never know, there might be a gem among them once in a while.

Elitechief27

I liked it and I think you should keep up with it.

Also.............Did you really spam Sterling with Mass Effect hentai, or was he pulling it out of his butt?

Bob Muir

As long as you can highlight why they are so bad in a humorous and possibly exaggerated manner, I say go for it.

I think it's more fun to play a shitty game because you go into it knowing it will suck. Plus since it's a shitty game, most likely no one cares about it so you could have more fun writing the review I think.

Brian Keljore

Review the shitty games. I think I enjoy a bad review more than I enjoy reading good ones.

Back when I subscribed to multiple game magazines I used to check the scores in the review section and read the reviews of the bad games first because I find them more entertaining. So yes, bring on the reviews of shitty games. I love 'em.

don't ever change

I literally bugged the hell out of Midway for a copy of Cruisn' Wii, specifically for the fact I knew it was bad and I wanted to see how bad it could possibly be. They never pulled through for me.

I guess you can see where I'm going. Post the crappy games. :D

Brad Rice

I'm not angry or irritated by the comments, I'm just curious what the readers want. So, what better way than to ask you guys directly?

So, I shall soldier on with my review of Wacky Races, and Soul Bubbles just came in the mail. Let's see how that is.

I'm all in for shitty game reviews, give us something....different.

kawitchate

ooo, Soul Bubbles. sounds deep.

iwontusemyname

yeah, sure.

Maurice Tan

Yes, keep on going! Bad reviews are much more fun to write and to read than "blabla it's great blabla you already knew all of this" :)

Takeshi

Shitty games need reviews as well. People might not know if a game is bad. See it like a sort of warning. That's what reviews are for right?

@ Heretic

heretic... heretic heretic heretic. I win.

Shodan2020

I love reviews of shitty games.

The Combat Wombat
