Well i've seen enough posts by people asking "What's everyones fav. N64 game la la la".

Well what I ask is:-
"Which games have you bought which you hardly ever played / never finished cos it was soooo PANTS / just thought was completely naff and so took it back to the shop the next day?"

Well here are two of my choices:-

1. Milos Astro Lanes.
Well it was actually my younger brother who bought this, and it was a REALLY bad game! It took my 1 night to play through the whole game {I can't beleive I bothered to complete it}. Well anyway, that game got taken back to the shop and exchanged for NFL Quarterback Club, and some NHL ice-hockey game, which were FAR better.

2. Body Harvest.
I bought this game for somthing like £6 from an HMV last year. It was one of those N64 games I always wanted. It's here because it's one of those games that I never bothered to get that far in. I thought when I started it that it was a good game, but by the time I got to the third level or something, I just got quite sick of it. It was just really annoying the save game system in it, by the fact that you had to keep restarting levels over when you died n stuff. Well that's how I remember it, been a while since I've played it.

So what games have you had experiances like this with?

BODY HARVEST??!!
Man, that was one of my favourite N64 games ever! Actually, I'm not quite sure why...it just gave me that warm, fuzzy feeling inside every time I played it.
Anyway, as for my worst N64 game, it's gotta be... (thinks for a moment)...Turok 2: Seeds of Evil. What a waste of perfectly good Christmas money! The single player was boring, unispiring and often jerky, while the multiplayer was absolute drivvle. Not a scratch on Goldeneye!

Carmageddon 64 easily the worst pile of ces i've ever had the bad luck to play, I don't know what SCI where thinking when they released it, the PC original was a damn good game, but this oh my god it was sooooo crap.

Carmageddon 64 and Charlie Blast's Territory.

Avoid like the plague.
You get more fun out of squirting sulphuric acid into your eyes.

Don't buy. Please don't, I hear they use them as the latest torture method - they MAKE you play them...

Not just the worst N64 games but perhaps the worst games in history have to be: FIFA 64, Clayfighter 63 1/3, Superman and Carmageddon 64!!
Absolute stinkers!!

If you reeeeeaaaaaaally must know, then here it is:

Zelda Ocarina of Time

Crap graphics, I was bored from the word Go, it's rubbish, it's rubbish, it's just plain, god-damn RUBBISH!

What the hell made it so popular in the first place?
98% in NGC mag? Pah! I'd get rid of the 9 in that rating. Much better result.

Despite Body Harvests annoying save system, unkowingly when I finished level three it said now try again on harder settings!!!

WHAT!!!

You mean I got this far only to start again from SCRATCH and and do it again to get the extra few levels!! It took simply hours of play to get to the third level on easy, bolox if I was going to do it again, that game quickly left my collection.
Also I brought that games when it came out for 45 yes 45 pound!! To find out merley weeks later it's price dropped significantly!

Good enjoyable game with one or two flaws that could easily have been fixed, shame really.
