The developers deserve an Accolade for creating such an abomination.

dadaist fucking hellscape

tears of the kingdom has some stiff competition

Scientifically proven to be the worst possible platformer.

This game is Satan. It's like getting the death penalty in Hell. The controls are awful.. and the soundtrack sounds like it was composed in Mario Paint without any idea of how to use the program. All of the bad puns make me wanna PAW my hair out. I can't stand this game, and I would rate it zero stars if I could.

All the levels look like test levels, and the enemies are placed right in your butthole in case you wanna avoid them. On top of that, the camera really sucks. Two player mode is not redeeming whatsoever.

Oh, by the way-- no matter if you get the good ending or the bad ending, you literally meet the same fate. Don't even finish the game. The "Game Over" screen is the true good ending.


"Ah but it was being developed before Mario 64 set the standards" yeah so was Croc, but they had the decency of actually finishing the game instead of releasing a broken mess

"Ah but there are worse ps1 games" nah, there certainly are lazier games, but I'd rather play copy pasted board games than the first level of Bubsy

Bubsy...
O que falar de Bubsy que até hoje não foi dito?
Bom, uma coisa é que eu respeito muito a Accolade por realmente ter tentado fazer esse mascote funcionar, e parece que deu um pouco certo, já que ele teve jogos novos uns anos atrás. Fez ele não se tornar em um personagem esquecido, apenas infame por todos.

Bubsy nasceu na década de 90, em meio ao desespero de todas as empresas em fazer um mascote tão famoso quanto Sonic. Até então, ninguém arriscava em bater de frente com Mario, mas Sonic deu esperança pra dezenas que foram atrás do mesmo pote de ouro. Uma a uma, essas empresas caíram com seus jogos de baixa qualidade e sem criatividade. Mas Bubsy segurou firme. Com apenas uns 4 jogos de qualidade questionável, sobre um gato/lince, eu sei lá, lutando contra alienígenas que querem, ãh, roubar todos os novelos de lã do planeta... oh não...... As fases eram montadas quase que igual em Sonic, e Bubsy tinha um pique de corrida, mas zero defesa, auto sabotando a gameplay do jogo, precisando parar cada 3 metros pra atacar inimigos.

Mesmo com esse caos, parece que a Accolade conseguiu verba suficiente pra fazer um jogo pra esse novo console chamando Playstation. Ele poderia ser em 3D, seria novidade, imaginativo, incrível, quadrado, sem textura, travado, horr-- hã?
Pois é, aparentemente eles não tinham a menor ideia de como um jogo 3D deveria funcionar, mas tentaram mesmo assim, decidiram em lindos tank controls pro Bubsy e montaram um mundo em volta dele. Um mundo surreal, com quadrados saltando pra fora, texturas sem sentido, ou nenhuma textura, e PNGs pixeladas jogadas onde podiam. E eles estavam orgulhosos! What could possibly go wrong?

Até o dia dum pequeno show chamado E3 onde eles viram como Mario tava se saindo e se deram conta da burrada...

Mas o que estava feito não podia ser desfeito, o jogo foi lançado poucos meses depois, com a capa decorada com mínimas frases de críticos que falaram do jogo, tiradas completamente de contexto, para parecem boas kkkkkkk
Foi um fiasco, mas um clássico fiasco que todos se lembram.

Bubsy 3D is not a game, its a test. A test of endurance, will, and determination to continue. Beating this game with a friend of mine didn't feel like beating it; It felt like we had survived it. (it's not as bad as you think)

One of the only games that has ever made me physically ill to play, I had to take several breaks while playing this so I'll take that as a sign that this game is not fit for human consumption.

Bubsy 3D, a fever dream I might have played or watched, the lines blur. Was it a nightmare or just a fleeting hallucination? Tank controls in a 3D platformer, untextured platforms, and a soundtrack that descends into horror? It's as if the developers were playing a prank on gamers. Madman Mackola, if you had a hand in this, you've got some explaining to do. Or perhaps, it's best left buried in the annals of gaming history. 1/10 for the haunting memories that may or may not be real.

The only reason you should ever play this game is if it's for a good cause. And now that I think about it, I don't even think I was the one to play this during a Gextra Life charity stream a few years ago. It was like 4 in the morning and I think I was watching someone else play it.

Everybody knows this is a slog to play, I don't need to repeat that, but it does have a lot of creative ideas and cool visuals that I'd love to see replicated in more compotent productions. I really respect what it was going for and its place in gaming history, even if I'd very much not want to play it. If I was rating this game based only on aesthetics and ideas, it would be about a 5-star. Really that goes for the Bubsy franchise as a whole.

YOU DONT KNOW THE DEPTHS OF WHAT COULD GO WRONG BUBSY YOU SIT ON YOUR FUCKING IVORY TOWER OF NAIVETY AND YOU ENJOY AND HAPPINESS YOU ARE BLISSFULLY UNAWARE OF THE DANGERS AND THE INJUSTICES OF THIS WORLD

It's so atrocious that it is almost charming. So its just terrible instead of atrocious. Maybe it'll be just a bad game if I sit down and try to beat it. Then again, I will probably just find it an irredeemable game like how it was in the first place.

It says paws when you pause the game

A horror game in disguise.

i beat this game just so my friend could buy me sonic frontiers

i only really watch youtube videos about video games. Bubsy 3D is a game i've been hearing about since i was eight, serving as the arch-enemy of many a white boy with a camera and a zelda t-shirt. Bubsy 3D has, more than any other game on earth, been forced onto gamers by their evil clones while they plead to play 'anything but THAT game!!!', a game routinely branded as "THE WORST GAME EVER?!?" - which it could never actually be because it makes me feel things.

i love Bubsy 3D's goofy soundtrack, its oddly evocative minimalist landscapes, and i kinda love Bubsy himself but i'd never pretend it's fun to play. it's fun to think about, to imagine how hard it must've been to develop. everyone brings up how shit it looks in comparison to Mario 64, but you gotta remember the only "3D platformers" before its development began were Bug! (not an actual 3D platformer) and Jumping Flash! - neither of which had third-person 3D platforming, both of which had really exciting exclamation points. i just don't think Bubsy 3D really deserves the scorn late-2000s internet gave it. maybe a marginally better reputation, not a good one.

Guys I don’t see what’s so wrong with this

Played the first few levels to understand just how bad a 3D platformer can be.

Safe to say I wasn't disappointed!

Give me a a few hours by myself and I can make a better game than this

Played it in one go...genuinely horrid

I've played a lot of those crappy games you'd see online from "Top 10 Worst Games of All Time" lists. This one for me reigns supreme as the worst of the bunch, and I don't need to explain why. Well done Bubsy.

honestly this game is aint that bad. its not good, but i think i could go through the whole game if i suddenly felt like it and feel at the very least something.

(Bottom 5) Good lord. What can I say about this dumpster fire that hasn't already been said. The controls feel horrible, Bubsy feels like he's on roller blades the whole time, the level design is horrendous, and Bubsy never shuts his damn mouth. Combine that with tank controls and a bug that essentially turns your controller off if you try and turn on analog support and you have a game, that by all accounts, should never be played by anyone ever.


I don't even have a funny haha quip for this

THE DEVIL SHIVERS WHEN THE BUBSY 3D FAN STARTS TALKING.

This Game Took Bubsy In 3D. Bubsy Is Honestly Underrated To Me.
