I know Nintendo fanboys are gonna rush in to say "all of them kek," But I’m looking for THE WORST Genesis/Mega Drive games. Not Sonic 3D blast circlejerk I’m talking absolutely horrible like Dark Castle and X-Perts.
Fucking X-Perts, not only was Eternal Champions wasted as a franchise but this game was so clunky and unresponsive. NO MUSIC, permadeath, shittiest combat system, and a game in 1996, you'd think they know how to make a game on genesis by then.
>>2941829
>speaking of Eternal Champions franchise..
>>2941865
Look at that forehead jesus fucking christ
>>2941865
Is this game bad? I'd hate to see my personal favorite character from EC get a game just for it to suck.
Gadget Twins. Just try and play it.
Bonus points if you play it with volume up as loud as possible.
>tfw a classic Mac game is considered one of the worst ever thanks to a Genesis port
>>2941880
Let the screen-shot speak for itself.
>>2941872
>>2941881
You're on rocks, bro.
This game fucking kicks ASS!
That Barbie game.
>>2941859
this by far. worst controls and hit detection I have ever experienced.
Shaq Fu
Dark Castle
>>2941957
shaq fu is not that bad. at least it makes you laugh.
Sword of Sodan. I kind of like it though.
>>2941971
Shaq Fu is like The Room of fighting games.
>>2941979
I can't get past the level with the spikes coming from the ground.
>>2941984
Yeah, the game is incredibly difficult. It's really important to know all the potion mixes and how to use them effectively if you want to beat the game.
>>2941971
Shaq Fu is just really mediocre/bland, I don't see why it gets as much hate as it does, there are MUCH worse fighting games.
I actually enjoy shitty games for some reason. I never finished this game but it was somewhat enjoyable in a medocre shitty sort of way. The tactical rpg gameplay is sort of fun. Anyone else like shitty games? It was mostly the music which can be slightly ear grating after a while.

Also please admire that beautiful cover art.

>there are MUCH worse fighting games.
On the genesis? Please show us. I can think of pit fighter but shaq fu was supposed to be good which makes it all the worse.
>pit fighter
>>2942612
The genesis had a surprising amount of exclusive wrpgs. Rings of Power, Faery Tale, Buck Rodgers, D&D, Shadowrun, etc.
>>2942612
Treco also published the BEST fighting game ever made in human history.

I'm a Nintendo fan and I freaking loved the Sega Genesis.
So clearly you're just a cunt.
I always felt this game was pretty terrible.

>>2942619
On the Genesis? Well there was that Mortal Kombat wannabe on the CD that had slow and clunky gameplay and had no actual appeal beyond "lol gore"
As for the era, there's Kasumi Ninja for the Jaguar, which was a pretty sorry excuse for a game.
>shaq fu was supposed to be good
Elaborate.
>>2941859
I came here to post this. It is a very, VERY, terrible game.
>>2942663
It is terrible and also really hard. At one point in the game you had to press reset on the genesis console to go to the next level. I thought that was pretty cool, but I bet many people didn't know to do that.
>>2942717
>At one point in the game you had to press reset on the genesis console to go to the next level.
That's in the second game.
>>2942720
I never played the 2nd one, so I'm 100% sure it was this one. Maybe it was in both?
>>2942629
Nearly twenty years later and I'm still conflicted on whether or I love or hate this game. From a gameplay standpoint it's incredibly boring but god damn does it have some awesome characters.
>>2941979
Second for SoS. Absolutely terrible game.
>>2941829
That Buck Rogers Doomsday Wrpg was the worst Genesis game I ever played.
>>2942629
Still not better than Pitfighter or Time Killers.
>>2942720
No it's not. It's in the first one when you get to Mojo's World.
Also that game isn't bad it's just difficult as fuck.
>>2941829
BEHOLD
the Bubsy of fighting games. The fox girl is pretty hot and I would fug.
Brutal: Paws of Fury

There was also a snes port. So it was not exclusively a shitty genesis game.
>>2941982
What a kek filled story Mark
>>2941859
beat me to it
I remember saving my pocket money up for this thinking it looked really good. Holy shit was I wrong!
God I wish Sonic 3D Blast were a good game. I really want to like it but even when I can wrap my brain around the awkward slippery controls it's just not a very fun game. I got it again recently when I bought myself a new Genesis and I can see why my dad never let me rent it.
>>2944624
I don't find that game bad to be honest, a little slippery and weird camera but i guess I'm just nostalgic for the "HOLY SHIT 3D" feeling I had back then.
For what it was, the level design was cool and varied, music top notch, and disregarding the lack of speed it works a whole despite its flaws. Perfect? No, but bad? I disagree.
>>2944624
It is okay. The controls are a bit too slippery and due to the isometric view it can be hard to line yourself up with hitting the enemy.
Funny I played all the other Sonic games before 3D Blast but 3D Blast was the first Sonic game I got all the emeralds in.
>>2945641
>first Sonic game I got all the emeralds in.
Me too. No suprise there, the Genesis version of 3D Blast has the easiest special stages in the entire series.
>>2942701

>>2944105
I just bought this, being so bad must be why it's pal only
>>2941880
I swear everyone who played Eternal Champions mained Larcen.
>>2948059
It came out in na too, for snes at least. I own the sequel to this game which is equally bad.
>>2942669
>Awesome Possum
>Kick's Dr. Machino's butt!I'm awesome!
Art Alive
I know it predates Mario Paint and everything but the game could have used more activities, Sega lore, and music. Art Alive had like no music. Is it wrong to compare the two seeing that Mario Paint broke new ground for creativity software?
>>2942594
probably because it came out and cost 70 bucks and had a big celebrity endorsement behind it. With the hype behind it the game would definitely let you down after all that money.
I'd argue Rise of the Robots is still a worse game than Shaq Fu though.
>>2944105
I recall it being joking described in a short review as a rather impressive screen saver, only for the reviewer to realize it was a boring/shitty fighting game
>>2943928
that jaguar with the monocle is hilarious.
>>2942669
I've been meaning to add this to my collection. The quizzes at the end of each level were a fond part of my childhood.
