Best and Worst Nostalgic video game

[Devils'Advocate]

I was mostly into RPGs.

Atari: River Raid. River Raid. And River Raid. Trons Deadly Discs, Bezerker and PacMan were really fun for a few weeks and then put them away never to be seen again. Actually, they are in my garage.

C64 - I played Pirates! for an entire summer. I don't think I saw the sun. Also Bards Tale. And Wasteland.

NES - Final Fantasy 1, Dragon Warrior. Zelda.

It sure looks bad.

You seem to have experience with a lot of bad Nintendo games TCMB.

I'm one of those kids that look at the box cover, rents the game for the weekend, and gets stuck with it cause I rented a piece of crap game based solely on the box cover art.

Yeah I remember Commander Keen too. That was a Sierra Game, wasn't it? Sierra used to pump out so many stellar games. The Police Quest series, the Quest for Glory series, the Space Quest series, and the Leisure Suit Larry series.

Then of course there were those awesome SCUMM games by Lucasarts! Monkey Island, Loom, Indiana Jones, Maniac Mansion... I have a SCUMM emulator for my DS so I can play a bunch of these games on the go lol.

Everyone who is feeling nostalgic, search for FireNES Firefox plugin. It has EVERY NES game and is playable in browser.

My GPA hates you for this post.

I totally remember this stupid game. Worst is I remember not know how to play this game at all cause it confused the crap out of me.


Angry video game nerd was totally right

The sad thing is he's not exaggerating when he claims its so bad that it haunts him. It's the worst game I've ever played in my life. I'd rather play spin the bottle with a bunch of gay men infected with visible herpes around their mouths. It's so bad it sticks with you and gives me the creeps to this day. DON'T PLAY IT!!!!!

Cyberball both arcade and when they ported it to the sega genesis. I found a genesis rom just for that game. I don't know how many hundreds of dollars I spent on that game one summer in the arcade.

For NES there was a bass fishing one I just loved. Think it was called Super bass fishing or omething like that. For Atari Starmaster was friggin' awesome!

As for worse game, there are too many to list. Raiders of the lost ark was bad. Any game that was the same thing repetitively was pretty bad.
