I don't understand how these games get through the testing stages of development without being adjusted or made better in any way.

This is a list of the games that I personally thought were absolute rubbish and why they gamers should of never had to experience there either dismal uninspiring gameplay or simply the graphics that they boasted looked like that had just come out of a 60's b-movie.

Hog's of War. Alot of people I talk to rate this as being one of the funniest games ever personally I think it is awful. Boring turn based gameplay and highly unwitty comments from the hogs themselves make this an utter embarassment to the playstation.

Clay Fighter. This was one of the first games released on the N64 and it shows. This is quite litteraly Gardeners Question time in a cartridge. The graphics were nothing new and the gameplay failed to challenge even a dog. Quite simply "rubbish".

Simpsons Wrestling. This game had the makings of a classic. What went wrong? Poor "cartoon-like" graphics and the gameplay that wouldn't test my mum, make this a mockery of game. Why people like this I don't know.

Lastly Sped Ops. Not many people are aware of this title. This isn't a bad thing though as it is complete cack. A great amount of detail had gone into this game, a little too much if I may say so. The missions involved doing hundreds of different things in a time limit that was so hard to acheive no-one could do it, and that was just on the first level!

Worst games: I'm not kidding, don't even think about buying them...

South Park Chef's Luv Shack: Funny for about 5 minutes. After that time has elapsed it's about as exciting as double Geography on a hot day. Would you pay a tenner for the cartoon? Thought not.

Roadsters: The WORST control I have EVER seen on ANY racing game, even Turbonutter would shun this one. Steer clear, like the cars in this game usually do all by themselves. As for collision detection, it's there, as long as you include colliding with fresh air.

Chu Chu Rocket: Just don't OK? Not worth it. It's a puzzle game, but about as puzzling as the question "What is that pebble thinking?" It's the only game ever to be released that makes you frown all the way through it.

All of the above are unfortunately available on the Dreamcast. Don't even think about it.

The only decent part in Hogs of War is the training mission. Also the two player mode can get a little repetitive too but the two player mode is about the best part (at first).

have you actually played it? The playstation wasn't as good as the N64 for 3D enviroments but with texture mapping and that it looks great. It's class bazookas,gas bombs,artilery,jet packs and parachutes hahaha it's class but i'm stuck on level 23 though only 2 from the complete take over of saustralia, good multiplayer mode too

hahahahahaha

I'm sorry but I just can't see why Hogs of War is a good game the gameplay gets very un-original as you make your way through the worst designed levels ever. Utter rubbish.

HEY, hogs of war is a classic!!

it's missions are well thought out, weapons are class and the overall gameplay is great. Yes the funny comments will probably get on your nerves after a while from that guy off the young on ones and bottom but THANKFULLY there is an on/ off option for this but even so it's the best game of it's tpe until worms blast arrives on PS2 that is.
