Really Bad Games! - Game Sack

[@GameSack]

Those were stills taken from another site. We don't actually have every version of Shaq-Fu. That would be the reason. So all I can say is NOT OUR FAULT! Usually we use real systems and games to record our visuals so usually the side-by-sides are 100% accurate.

[@JMFSpike]

Best silent film I've ever seen at the end there. Seriously though, you guys did a fantastic job with that! It looks really authentic! I'd love to see you guys do more comedic skits in that style in the future.

[@TylerSteven9]

I really liked how you guys could review these terrible games while still pointing out a few of the good things... it seems like most KZbinrs who review bad games simply point out all the bad things and swear a ton about how shitty it is (it gets old fast), but you guys can do more legitimate reviews while pointing out the pros and (mostly) cons. Seriously, do more of these videos! (Yes I know there's a second)

[@teen_laqueefa]

James Rolfe is not of the same cloth as these guys. The AVGN is a character, however James has been toning it down lately, and with Game Sack being Joe and Dave being mature ,Snarky and informative about games makes me appreciate it more after hearing Joe's technical aspects of the games, puts the whole game into more of an art when you appreciate Aesthetics. I'm a dork tho so thanks for reading this dorkgasm

[@superpan218]

You think the Genesis version of Pit-Fighter is bad? Take a look at the SNES version. The SNES version is EVEN WORSE. While the Genesis version is better than the SNES version, Pit-Fighter is still a bad game regardless. When Mortal Kombat was released, this game became obsolete almost instantly. In other words, it got worse with age.

[@GimpyDingo]

Only 6 years too late. How about the Atari Lynx version of Pit Fighter? Youch! The arcade is enjoyable and there are quite a few moves. The 'sequel' Guardians of the Hood was interesting l.

All developers should use Shigeru Miyamoto's philosophy "If you make a game that you enjoy yourself, then people will also enjoy it"

[@MrDerOutsider]

and then he proceeded to make 20 years of bullshit

[@spankrocketgaming294]

I wouldn't call it bullshit per say, but he is out of touch with the current trend, he loves putting a gimmick into his games, and there are some games he was involved with that the developers had to fix all the changes he made because they were poor decisions on his part, I respect Shigeru, but he has got to stop with the gimmicks, and E3 2006 with Wii Music was cringy as hell :P I respect him because without him, video games may not have been a thing today

[@lmk10000]

that's not a great developing philosophy. In fact, almost every bad developer does "the game he enjoys to do".

[@GiordanDiodato]

+Spank Rocket ironically, those "gimmicks" made the Wii sell 100 million units.

[@marcosdheleno]

dont forget his other philosophy, "since im a big shot now, im allowed to Fk other people games, because I know what is good or not, so they must obey me and do those changes." or his other one "unless i the game is gimmicky to the point of boredom, its not worth to make it." or or, his other one, "that game those guys made is awful, it only has graphics, its not as good as what I make."

[@FlyingDuckMan360]

13:38 - Oh, so that's how you get that D. That could have saved James Rolfe, A.K.A. the Angry Video Game Nerd a lot of frustration in his review of the game.

[@gpumi]

Which is hilarious... And I loved the subtle way Joe simply showed How to do It. Totally intentional!!!

[@redjed100]

Given how spotty the hit detection in the game is, I don’t think it would’ve made much of a difference.

[@Ravewolf24]

As a computer game, Tongue of the Fatman was actually kind of fun, and had a somewhat better implementation of the betting and weapons system. Even at the time it was a bit primitive in the actual fighting system though, so it's an odd choice for a console port. We do take a lot of the progress post- SFII for granted though, as back then the basics were still being figured out.

[@DeAthWaGer]

The SNES versions of Shaq-Fu and Pit Fighter are MUCH worse than the Genesis ones. Shaq-Fu is missing characters and Pit Fighter looks like super-deformed vomit.

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

The SNES version of Shaq Fu at least has great music unlike the crappy sounding music on the Mega Drive (Genesis).

[@shymickey6]

Well at a "sad point in my life" I actually enjoyed playing Shaqfu with my family. My favorite character was that red beast...well, his name I just saw is just Beast.

[@trevorbozeman]

You guys are great, love rewatching all your old episodes.

[@BlackRockAMVs]

The lack of Bubsy 3D is disturbing. Seriously; that's arguably the worst crap I've ever put into a video game console period.

[@SouthLouisiana4eva]

[@Munk451]

If we count PC games, lets try Big Rigs Over The Road Racing! That is the greatest game of all time as you can leave the stage and go backwards at a million miles an hour! It sucks!

[@Munk451]

Ikr!? Some of the most hillarious glitches ever as well as the best ending ever! You're Winner!

[@otaking3582]

Everyone already knows how terrible that game is. No use beating a dead horse when people can be exposed to more obscure bad games

[@RetroBirdGaming]

This should be followed up by "Really Good Games!". You guys do a great job of making the games you like look cool. Hell, I bought a Gamecube just because you sold me so well on Super Monkey Ball.

Wow. Cool to see you here 11 years ago. :) 🍌

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Also that Darkwing Duck game pissed me off to no end, I was so damn excited at the prospect of another Darkwing Duck game....unfortunately got a pile of shit instead. The game makes borderline no damn sense :\

[@Cryofax]

Didn't wash? I'm more concerned that he didn't wipe.

[@budleyharrison5543]

That's what I was thinking too, then I realized I don't what to see that....Wait! Why did he need to wash his hands if he didn't wipe?

[@PuffyRainbowCloud]

Because he touched his naked body when pulling his pants down, because he touched the toilet seat, because he touched the bathroom door going in... There are countless reasons as to why one NEEDS to wash their hands after going to the bathroom. Those who don't disgust me.

[@zmbdog]

"he touched his naked body when pulling his pants down". It hurts my brain that this was said in all seriousness. It just barely beats out "he touched the door".

[@jaynukem1929]

I remember thinking Pit Fighter looked impressive when I first saw it in Arcades. I remember it being the first game I saw that used real people as a controllable character.

[@falariem]

I actually beat Back to the Future 3 as a kid. It gets even harder after the first level. It just sucks, and there's no pay-off except that you can finally turn off your Genesis knowing you'll never EVER play it again. And I'm pretty sure that "Nightmare Circus is Sega's answer to Donkey Kong Country" is just plain wrong. No, that would be Vector Man.

[@hylianfelldragon1308]

Here's my least favorite games from each generation (not counting the 1st one) 2nd gen: ET the Extra Terrestrial- Atari 2600 3rd gen: Ghostbusters- NES and Master System 4th gen: Action 52- NES and Genesis 5th gen: a tie between Bubsy 3D(PlaySation) and Superman 64(N64) 6th gen: Big Rigs Over the Road Racing(PC) If not that game, then Mega Man X7(PS2) 7th gen: Sonic 06- PS3 and XB360 8th gen (current gen): Rambo the video game- XB360 and PS3

[@superpan218]

The Master System version of Ghostbusters is actually better than the NES version. Sure, it has some problems the NES version has, but it's a vast improvement over the NES version.

[@dinohermann1887]

For 7th gen I'd rather say "Ride To Hell Retribution"!

[@JohnnySquare]

​@superpan218 the master system version was actually quite good

[@JonEvans818]

The "poles" that kept hitting you on the 4th and final level in the train, are actually poles that had a length of wood over the train, well just to the side of it. Back in those days, they used to fill a bag full of mail and hang it out the window, and the bag would grab on the hook and local post offices would ride out and get them. It's even in the cartoon movie, "Fievel Goes West".

[@Patrick19833]

The SNES version of Pit Fighter was much worse than the Genesis version.

[@apostolicpaladin]

I'm just now going back through Game Sack again and just got to this episode. Rise of the Robots is the first game that came to mind. To this day, I STILL have not figured out how to do one special move. Maybe there are none....

[@jasonsnyder6914]

Ahh the days of 16 bit shovel ware...

[@maxgenius6080]

I still remember when pit-fighter just apear in arcade, and then in the genesis, people when mad about this game, for real, it lasted until Mortal Kombat I, this was the MK ancestor in some way, time flies....

[@Brbos06]

Lol! Have the AVGN on next time as a special guest. He'll take a dump on those bad games for you! lol

[@thesledgehammerblog]

About 15-20 years ago I remember seeing a webpage where someone had made it their mission to buy up every copy of Shaq-Fu they could find just so they could keep people from being exposed to the terrible game. Not sure if they succeeded...

[@reluttr2]

The absolute worst game I have ever played was Ultraman for the SNES. I could not even get past the first boss as a kid. Needless to say it went back to the store.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

I don't know where you people lived or shopped, but software has always been "no returns after breaking seal" Did you shop at some weird Sympathy Mart store, where they'd let you return games ? They just have to be out of business doing that. I've never successfully returned software anywhere, at any time except when it was broken. Or that time after I bought a shrink wrap machine.

[@plutoglacier]

I love all the Game Sack series! Thank you for making these videos! (Plus the 32X was very funny!)

[@mickael486]

Mortal Kombat I was a gimmick.. The series really started to getting good with MKII

[@Audiowizard76]

Agree

[@kyle-os3wh]

Mickael Mc Arcade or console? If you're talking about console I would agree. Like, who actually splashes sweat when they get hit? The arcade cabinet is a classic although MKII did fix all of the problems the first one had (console and arcade). Nintendo even had the balls to put blood in the game! MKII did also define the ESRB and the war on video games.

[@josephcollins2340]

I love how Shaq Fu was the best game on the list. How can you honestly dislike the plot? One of the best ideas for a fighting game ever. Bought it just so I can own a fighting game centering around Shaq.

[@mattwatson3407]

Wow, I had Darkwing Duck and had none of those problems. Maybe i had a fixed version or maybe there is something wrong with your game. Also, the 'jewels' are gas canisters for your gun.The different colors do different things, i.e. stun v. kill enemies.

[@chriswebb3124]

in the cut scene where the guys are headbanging to queen it looks like garth is taking bites out of the steering wheel lmao

[@sysghost]

We need bad games! Why? Simple: If these games never were made. Other almost as bad games would be the worse kind, and we would say the same thing about them: Wish they never were made. Then the games almost as bad as them would be the worst kind... and so on and so forth... In the end we would only have Games. Not bad games, nor good games. Just... Games. Nothing more. Bland grey and kinda boring. Nothing new. They're all the same. TL;DR -version: We need bad games so the good games can be just that: Good.

[@GameSack]

It's just random. Couldn't think of anything else. I am amazed that it took 4+ months for someone to finally mention it. :)

[@trevgauntletneu_gaming]

I have to disagree with you guys on Darkwing Duck & Nightmare Circus, I own both physical copies.Darkwing Duck is a bad game, but not as bad as you guys make it out to be. You have to hold down when you want to jump over enemies, you have to stop moving the character as soon as you jump on a platform. It really isn't that hard at all and I beat the game in both Easy and Normal within an hour. You can shoot the boss and they can still lose health.Nightmare Circus is a very cryptic game, you keep on pressing the same damn button over and over again. Idk if you're trying to be funny but that it just downright annoying. The roar is used for finish the boss and take its ability. You can climb the ladder, you press up, it's not that hard. Press down and do the rear kick on the cannon. Avoid engaging the zombies as much as possible, use the spin kick twice to beat them. As for the stage where you see the two dolls, you don't fight them, you have to break down the wall by doing a spinning elbow attack and it gets monotonous.

Actually, Monty Mole (from Impossamole) was created about 7 years before Sonic. Plus, Impossamole was released on the Amiga about a year before Sonic was introduced. If anything, this is one of the first attempts to create an animal mascot!

[@diddles2008]

Impossibmole was never a mascot. The games originated on the ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64 before a time of mascots and all of the games were classics on the Spectrum through a mixture of addictive game play and just the sheer fun!

Is it really that hard for European artists to find pictures of classic American trains?

A friend lent me that game when I originally got an Xbox 360. I couldn't even figure out how to get to the first stage, I was just stuck in the town and I started feeling really queasy. I never played it again. from what I hear, I got off easy!

[@burntyper]

"i like the movies!" "thats nice joe..." lol

[@GameSack]

Graphics don't make a game good. The developers put all of their effort in that area. This one did indeed have some shoddy controls that had lag, horrible jumping and can be beaten easily with one button. I don't think the game would get thrown under the bus as often as it does if there weren't some merit to the complaints.

[@Nate1979]

Another fantastic episode, guys. I love how much deeper you go with this. Instead of picking out some easy targets, you found presented some deep cuts that I didn't even know existed. One of my worst experiences was the Tengen Road Runer game. I was young enough to blame myself for not making any progress. Nightmare Circus...absolutely fascinating. Did the Sega Channel do that kind of thing often, meaning try out games before they've been released/ completed development? Thanks again, guys

[@VeggieGamer]

I swear, Pit fighter gets more heat then it deserves. I played the arcade AND Mega Drive versions as a kid. Though not 'amazing', it can hardly be put on a worst games of all time, unless it is being played retrospectively. At the time, it wasn't all that bad.

You're probably right. At least with Shaq-Fu you don't have to play it for more than an hour.

On the train level in BttF part 3, you need to pick them up in order, starting with black. The problem is that that roof that rod is on is also colored black, and it blends in so well that you probably walked right past it.

I remember owning a copy of that Waynes world game when I was around 10 years old. That would have been 20 years ago and I waa innocent of the fact that games can be broken. I persisted and beat the first stage in a few hours but sensed it would be madness to continue putting up with the frustration for untold many more levels.
