Another terrible Amiga games thread.
« on: June 15, 2014, 09:22:26 PM »
Just played Fatman - The Caped Consumer.....

Terrible game. Controls are clunky, the music every so slightly on the annoying side, sound effects bland, the graphics meh and did I mention clunky and terrible controls?

What Amiga games have you guys played recently that made you groan while playing?

I played Sword of Sodan on my Genesis, and man... it was horrible. I was also horrified to learn this came from the Amiga. So I guess the object of that version is identical - stab everyone in the crotch till they die while wrestling unresponsive controls.

Also learned Dark Castle has a port to Amiga too, Genesis version was horrible too, controls, sound and everything else just blows. I guess the Amiga version is probably the same too.
After many years in the Amiga community I have decided to leave the Amiga community permanently. If you have a question about SGI or Sun computers please PM me and I will return your contact as soon as I can.

Not my review but made me not bother....

I played this game a lot, really WANTING to like it because it looked cool, but ultimately the poor controls drove me away.

Probably about as much fun as Sim Blind





Maybe give this one a go..... Street Gang
These guys look real scary!

Now I have to play this. :)

As part of wiki research I played the two Commodore versions of Judge Dredd. http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=619

The Amiga version is pants. The graphics aren't terrible. But the controls render it almost unplayable.

I believe the title was called: Gotcha! (Its on Amiga forever)It was a terrible platformer where you played as an alien that shoots. The music doesn't fit with the theme of the game.
