Unlucky.

How bad exactly is this game? I've never seen it run or be played or even get previewed it just sort of turned up at laucnch didn't it. Collecting rubbish sounds gay, but then running a farm on Harvest Moon sounds gay.

Anyone actually played this game? Or even bought it?

Rubbish collecting games?

And yet we still haven't had a game depicting the life and trials of The Traffic Wardens? WHY?! WHHHHHYYYY?!

The, er, injustice!

My mate got it with his CUbe, he bought it 2nd hand off some mitten wearing child.

It would be fun for a few minutes if it was on a Spectrum. Fact is no one bought their Gamecube to play a terrible clone of Paper Boy with ET as the main character.

Terrible, terrible game.

I'd kick it in the nuts if it was a person.

Curiousity.

I thought surely no one actually paid money for this game, what was going on when the developer thought this up I have no idea.

Seems like the worst game ever to me, wondered what people who had played it thought of it, see.

Cleaning up rubbish, sounds like Luigi's Mansion minus everything that made it great :)

It's rubbish and I wouldn't even waste a fiver on it. Companies that make substandard crap like Universal Studios owe us an explanation!

I played it at a friends house, well the level where you're in a wild west type town and have to move the cursor over objects that pop up like cardboard cut outs of cowboys etc and shoot them, he said there was a Jaws bit or something but i never saw that which i would have liked to, it was kinda fun for the while i played it, it was £30 at the time and wasnt worth it in my opinion but now can be picked up for about £15 in some places and is just about worth looking at now.

No.

But common sense says not to.

And for the record, running a farm did not sound gay, just refreshingly camp. I mean, look at his hat, and that scarf!
