Pjalne, I requested that the Farkers share some of their worst game picks for whenever (if ever) you're ready to write the sequel to this piece. They've been cool enough to post a bunch of suggestions.

That should definitely help ya pick some bad games to feature

Yeah, because we ALL know how valuable the comments from Fark are.

"I'm getting a boobies in before Feukulor does..."
"I still want to see a GTA movie."
"Spider-Man the Movie for the PS2 was pretty awesome. The X-Box version had "exclusive" levels, too. Farking Microsoft..."
"Ugh, I really tried to read this article, but didn't get half way through it. The writing was terrible, the way it suddenly jumped from game to game (without making any point) lost me, and the attempts at humor were well below average.

"Very poor and reeks of that all too common "trying too hard" stench that you can sense on 99% of most weblogs and blogs. Kind of reminds me of Fark.com in the past few months, but of course without the repeats."

Hope these all help!

I liked it, PJ. I know your pain in playing Home Improvement.

I couldn't believe they made a Platoon video game. That's like making a first-person shooter out of Schindler's List. (instead of movie posters, how about potential game cover art?)

Kinda funny, I first thought of Home Improvement when I saw the link on the front page. God that game blows. What about Jurassic Park? I hear the PSX Independence Day was pretty bad. I know for A FACT that Last Action Hero for the Genesis was bad enough to cause cancer; the player sprite didn't even look like goddamn Schwarzenegger.

I'm not sure if I understand, but 9 times out of 10, the cover art for a movie game is the same as the movie's poster.

Fuck, you damn near ruined one of the jokes in the follow-up

You couldn't have know, though.

And I am considering doing box arts, but like Jamesman said, most of the time that's just the poster with Nintendo's Seal of Approval on it. We'll see, this time it'll be the movie poster I did last night. While it's technically superior to the Punch-out one, it doesn't have Carl Winslow in it, which means it's inferior by default.

Cool, I'll take a look at it.

Yeah, in Pseudo-Scandinavia

That one looks a little more Swedish than Danish. In Sweden, DH:WaV is called Die Hard Hämningslöst (Die Hard Without Constrictions)

Nice.

Fark is full of dipshits, though. They'd piss and moan about the weather channel.

one of the worst movie to video game:

Ghostbusters.

if you've played it, you know what I mean.

Anonymous · #59

Ghostbusters for Atari ruled, you fag.

Anonymous · #60

ET for the Atari was the worst video game ever created, and in my opinion, put the final nail in the 2600's coffin.

Bennett · #61

That's great... it's just too bad that I was talking about Ghostbusters for Nintendo, which basically did nothing but put an Atari game onto a better system, hence creating a game that sucked ass.

whoreable · #62

sure ghostbusters on nes sucks to play now but it was awesome.

Did they make a mortal kombat game based off the movie?

Mockery · #66

No, they made a mortal kombat movie based on you, which is why it SUCKED.

Fucking board ate my post.

Anyway, if you wanna talk about bad Ghostbuster games, GB II for the computer was a crock of shit. The basic gameplay was pretty good, up until one of your guys got captured and sent to the asylum. Then you had the choice of rescuing them... but climing up a 100-story building, and breaking into different windows, trying to find the room they were in. And if it wasn't the right room, there'd be crazy people trying to grab you. AND, in order to leave the room, you had to jump RIGHT when the rope was swinging by. And waiting for that pretty much clinched that the all-to-fast crazy people caught you. Oh, and there were crazy people who would open up windows and grab your legs as you climbed.

But thankfully, you could just say "Fuck you, Winston!" and move on. There was a part near the end, where you controlled the Statue of Liberty, and walked towards the museum. Now, first off, to this day I still don't know where the fucking museum is. Second off, the controls were pretty non-existent. I remember pressing every possible button combination, and the statue wouldn't fucking move.

On top of that, if you crushed too many cars (you're walking down the street), you lost. The drivers actually drive into your feet, if they're on the ground. On top of that, it's apparently rush hour, because even if you did get your foot off the ground, it would come down on 3-4 cars at once, and you'd lose.
