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?

Draughts. I don't know how to play that properly though! As this talk about board games has just reminded me about Risk. Dammit, I wonder where I have a copy of WinRisk! Grrr more than likely on a CD back home! Grrrr! Perhaps i'll play the version i've got on me Playstation instead!

Same here, but chess isnt the same playing it on/against a computer! Its much beta having human interaction on this game! That way its always a different challange, & can be made more fun, by changing the rules depending on who your with ;)

I surpose I could do that, but I prefer playing games on my consoles rather than on my PC!

It was an exact copy of the original SNES games and they got marks up in the 80% range so it wasn't all bad. Don't think i'd run out and buy it but it certainly was better than Carmageddon.
