Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back is the textbook example of a soulless video game. A game with absolutely nothing special to write home about. The music is average, the graphics are mediocre, Bubsy is every bit as difficult to control as before, his voice is more annoying than ever (though you can turn it off, so that's good I guess), and there's so little content here that it really makes you wonder what was the development process behind this thing. Should we not even bother to put in the effort because we're already counting on Youtube reviews, ridicule and memes as our primary source of exposition? Should we make a game so boring and effortless that it makes the previous Bubsy games look like masterpieces in comparison? I can just imagine the developers laughing at all the cries of "Who asked for this?" all over the internet.

I hate memes.

If the idea of a Sonic-themed RPG sounds like a bad idea to you, this game is to blame. A bizarre presentation of horrible character models and animations against ugly backgrounds, the use of nothing other than the touch screen to control everything (even things that could be easily assigned to buttons, like menus), a battle system that works like a more punishing version of a rhythm game, where missing one note will cripple your entire action, a dreadful soundtrack with the most boring and lazy MIDI files you will ever hear, and weird implementation of a dialog tree system where you can turn Sonic into the biggest asshole you will ever see.

I know some people still wish for a good Sonic RPG, but we all know how this franchise works. If a new concept for a Sonic game isn't a home run from the very first attempt, they will simply kill that concept out of fear of failure, instead of giving it another chance and hopefully improve upon it.

The infamous crowd-funded spiritual sucessor of classic Mega Man that turned out to be a huge disappointment, and that ruined the reputation of mr. Keiji Inafune. We've all made the jokes a million times already (cry like an anime fan, pizza explosions, it's better than nothing, etc.) But hey, anybody can look past a shitshow rollout/development is the end result is a solid game, right?

There is absolutely nothing here that hasn't been done better in other Mega Man games. While the core gameplay remains the same jump/shoot side-scrolling style, the new dash mechanic used to finish enemies and harm bosses is something I've always felt slows the game down and makes it less fun. A rather lame attempt at giving the game its own identity, despite its obvious ties to Mega Man. The music is absolutely boring and forgettable, the graphics are dull and lifeless, the voice acting is atrocious (not even "funny bad" like in Mega Man 8 or X4), and the overall design is so lacking that it truly feels like the game doesn't understand what made Mega Man appealing in the first place.

It was so ironic and beautiful seeing a project fueled by the extreme hatred against Capcom fail this hard and become a laughing stock, and then see the villain "Crapcom" live long enough to see itself become the hero with Mega Man 11. I hope we've all learned something here.

Another one I have a love/hate relationship with. I can definitely praise the awesome music, some of the visuals (the ones that don't glitch out), and the fact that you have all 4 turtles at your disposal at all times, each with their own abilities and health bars, assuming you don't lose any of them, which is near impossible.

That leads into the big problem, the relentless difficulty, with some stages throwing an absurd amount of enemies and stage hazards at you, which just screams trouble when you have this huge of a hitbox. Not to mention, the infamously unfair moments like the underwater countdown or the huge gaps in the sewer. I refuse to believe that half of the people who played this have even made it to the Technodrome.

The programming is also quite messy, with frequent collision hiccups, slowdown and sprite flickering, which only makes me hope the game isn't going to crash at any given second, thus only worsening my experience.

This game will probably be best enjoyed only by hardcore TMNT fans (I'm not) willing to put up with these insane challenges.

This feels like a crappy bootleg game that somehow got an official release. Not even the worst fighting games on the Super Nintendo felt this effortless.

The visuals are absolutely atrocious, the sprites and backgrounds do not complement each other in any way, and every character controls like they have a broom jammed up their asses (and that's when they respond to button inputs, because most of the time, they do not).

It shows how huge DBZ popularity was, in that all the kids back then were all over this trash game.
