This poll is so insanely lopsided, it's not even funny. Although who knows with all these younglings running around which game will actually prevail, there's only one real steaming pile on that list.

Looks like I agree with the majority, for the moment at least. Gotta agree with Nat to a degree tho, there are a couple on this list that brings a tear to my eye to think that no one else has ever enjoyed them :'(
Maybe its a difference in age? Having grown up playing nothing but 8bit stuff, maybe i just have a higher appriciation for some of the more 'simplified' games

Didn't vote since I realize that I've never played or owned any of these.  Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.  I guess I'm not the Turbo fanatic that I thought I was.

Can't say that I'm surprised at the 3 worst games.

I haven't played any of these games, but I'm willing to sell my votes for swag.

I'm still waiting for the source code to GUNBOAT. I feel that there are many optimizations to be done to make this game half decent, given the tiny deadline they had to port it from the PCs of the time.

Where did that dude go? He answered a bunch of my questions, IIRC.

Then...








Nothing.

Yeah, I wish Night Creatures was on here. It's a far worse game than Yo Bro, IMO.

Because night creatures aint so bad if given a fair shake. Yo bro doesnt belong here either.

There was a pre-conceived perception of what night creatures was going to be and it disappointed many when it turned out entirely different. Everybody dismissed it as garbage.

Yo Bro instead of Keith Courage?!?!

Keith Courage is mediocre, sure, but it's nowhere near awful enough to have gotten this far in the competition imo.

I have finally cracked the code of which of your posts are purposely trolling. It's all the game-based ones.

That's not the only reason. The hit detection is horrible, and the hit mechanics mean a single hit against the player is usually multiplied into several hits against the player. I just find the general play control somewhat inscrutable.

Yep. Preconceived notions or not, Night Creatures plays like shit.

You tools should have voted up Night Creatures in a previous round. I know I voted for it.

Night Creatures actually has decent cover art.

I would kill for the original cover artwork for Night Creature

I was away for a couple weeks, I guess I missed the vote with KK. Is it too late to contest this? haha

Voting is locked. Worst US Hueys of all time have been determined:

1) Falcon
2) Gunboat
3) Ballistix

I can't find a solid argument against any of these but I think TV Sports Football should have a spot on here somehow. It's definitely my honorable mention.

I have had so much more fun with TV Sports Football than those top three turds.

Scientifically, I have determined that I have experienced ~BILLIONS of more fun molecules.
