Now For Something Completely Different

I managed to pick up a copy of Rad Racer for the NES for only $3.00 along with some Zapper game and a vollyball game. I have no clue who the heck Robert Kennedy is, but he felt he had to scribble his name on the cartridge. Fortunately, the writing doesn't affect the functionality of the cart and the game runs perfectly fine (so do the other two). ( Read more... )

Adventures of Bayou Billy...that's one game that made Animé St. Louis' "Worst Video Games Ever" list. I remember a con-goer playing that game and never even making it out of the first level (probably all the more difficult when we were playing the Worst Video Games Ever Tournament on a heavily moded Xbox). Luckily Bayou Billy wasn't the worst of the NES block (which I kind of rank Fist of the North Star and Back to the Future...the one I played at the tourney...the top worse).

It's hard, but I find it fun, but then, I'm a big fan of NES Konami games, which do tend to be on the tough side. I will admit, it's definately not one of Konami's best games, but I'm happy with it ( ... )

Lol, those are some bad games. It's too bad we didn't get the Ghostbuster's II game Japan and Europe got made by Hal Laboratories, that one is much better than ours. I'm surprised the first Ghostbusters game, Where's Waldo, Dr Jeckle & Mr Hyde, Captain Planet, Karate Kid or Predator didn't make that list, those are all horrible games as well. XP
