Has anyone ever played this shit-fest? (I'm not sure if that is supposed to be hyphened). Consider yourself lucky if you haven't.

Little Red Hood was a game made by a Taiwanese gaming company (and I think the only one to have ever existed, and thank god for that) for the NES illegally. The game is loosely based off of Little Red Riding Hood. Meaning there is a wolf in the game like once or twice.

The gameplay is just god awful. Swimming in puss is more enjoyable. You have to collect a certain number of crowns and a key to advance to the next level. The keys and crowns are hidden in staircases that appear out of nowhere when you are walking. You have two moves, jump and kick. Kick is used for getting fruit out of trees (I think you can use it against enemies, but it never works). Jumping is really the only way to avoid the thousands of enemies running around. BUT WHENEVER YOU DO IT THERE IS A HIGH-PITCHED NOISE THAT DOESN'T STOP FOR TWENTY SECONDS. Why does this happen? Is Red Riding Hood (or Red Hood) screaming every time she jumps? What the fuck?

Also the graphics look like piss.

This game sucks. Never attempt to play this puke pile.

Can't be any worse than Lil' John's Crunk Golf, Extreme Sports With the Berenstein Bears, or Shaq Fu.

Also, E.T. for the Atari.

This sounds atrocious... it has become my mission to play it.

Oh yes it can. Yes it can.

E.T. wielded the knife that killed the Atari during the peak of its success. It was so bad that the copies were buried in a landfill in Arizona because no one wanted the damn things. Half of the game involves falling into holes, and the other half involves trying to get out of the hole.

There was also an ancient Greece level. In E.T.

'course, if that doesn't sound horrible enough, there's always another game:

What!? No Engrish? It can't be that bad if it doesn't have Engrish.

edit: Bah... "Thank you for YOUR coming" meets the requirement. I must play this.

Eh, Ive played ET. Don't get me wrong its a terrible piece of shit, but it was on the Atari, so it can't be expected to have stellar gameplay. I thought Custer's Revenge on Atari was worse anyways.

For those not wishing to torture themselves with the game, here's a good synopsis: Little Red Hood review (http://encyclopedia-obscura.com/gamesredhood.html)

I'm amazed the Encyclopedia Obscura still exists.

I'm amazed the Encyclopedia Obscura still exists.

It sadly hasn't been updated in well over a year, probably closer to two.
