'03. The style of this review informed pretty much everything that came after it. A couple of years earlier, people would have expected a niche (then a niche of a niche) game to be broken. Back then, shitting on bad games was pretty much limited to big name flops like Daikatana. This was truly a milestone in a sense.

@NatedogO3310 жыл бұрын
Allan Hunt The only reason ET gets a bad rap was because of the hype behind the game. I wonder what fans were expecting. Consoles had limited capabilities in the 1980s. They were lucky all the other characters in that game, had more than 1 color to define who they were. Good grief, it did what it was supposed to do. The movie was about an alien who makes a freakin phone call. That's exactly what you do in the game. You build a phone, & go home. I don't know why people make such a big deal about those pits that ET falls in, either. They're not that hard to get out of.
@allanhunt648710 жыл бұрын
...that's not what the movie was about at all? And you can't expect people to expect a game using graphics from 30 years ahead. They could, on the other hand, expect a game with characters (at least a little bit) and reasonable challenges, not a game which was near-impossible and intensely frustrating and badly programmed to the point of incompressibility. Wait, why am I even bothering?

It also makes us ask metaphysical questions with a clarity reminiscent of Descartes: What can I actually know about the world around me? Can I really trust what my eyes are seeing? If you want to expand your mind and wisdom, buy this game.
