Laughable Amiga Titles.
« on: June 15, 2011, 06:50:33 PM »
I have always been curious to see what people consider to be laughable game titles for the Amiga and the reasons why.

I have always found Akira to be one of the most pathetic games I have ever played on the Amiga. The in game music just seemed bland and boring. The controls feel like your trying to wade through mud. The load times are rather long, even on the cd32 version. And the difficulty just feels like you would have an easier time handling a greasy weasle, in boxing gloves, while drunk and on a pogo stick.

The entire effort just seems laughably poor and pathetic.

Speaking of those, F29 Retaliator.  Beautiful game!  High poly count!  Ran well on unexpanded machines!  Hitboxes...ehh...yeah about that.  Nothing like flying 500m away from a terrain feature only to smack into it because the bounding box around the polygon for that feature was the size of fucking Nebraska.


So I am not the only one to crash into thin air then. :rofl:

@b00tdisk
I know I know :D

It's just slightly irritating when your trying some acrobatics on smash into nothing lol. Still a very good game.

Human Killing Machine. What not to do with a Street Fighter engine.

I really hated Captain Planet and its awful controls and collision detection.

My god that game was awful. I am convinced the only reason that game was played is because it was packed in with the Amiga.

I found Last Battle to be a rather laughable excuse for a game. I never liked the Mega Drive version but the Amiga version made it look good. Poor controls and poor everything else.
 
Vigilante again is a game i wish I had never had bothered to play. But as it came with my first Amiga then I was bound to play it. And regret.

Thought I would bring this thread back to life. So what games did you find poor, terrible or just generally laughable.
