I am one of three, maybe four people on planet Earth who have completed this game, and it is a burden I can no longer carry on my own. The teddy bear backpack, the incredible voice acting, the most spelling errors in a single shipped game, the LASER HALLWAY... Please, I beg of you, unleash this beast upon the world so that I may share my suffering with the rest of humanity.

Its so bad it's good like have you ever watched movie that was absolute garbage but you still loved it despite all it's flaws that's this game it need to stick around
This was one of the worst games I've ever played, with almost no redeeming features at all. Despite, or perhaps because of that, I found it thoroughly enjoyable. Look at the bear! Look! It's so cute!
Another one of the games I haven't played just because game journalists at the time said it's bad. I'd like to check it out myself though. So, it'll be nice to have it here.

An amazing example of amazing character design and terrible game design. I couldn't finish this game when it came out, but I remember the characters. A lot of the character abilities were awkward to use, but the shooting and jumping were cool. And the bear giggled! There's nowhere else to buy it, all hope is in GOG.
I tried to install it and Starforce DRM corrupted my Windows 10 image, as it is so often known to do. It hurt me somewhat, but it inspired me to be more careful in the future. I would like to actually be able to play it someday.

Wolfenstein
WolfensteinWolfenstein is the direct sequel to Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny/Wolfenstein RPG. It featured a "re-imagined" disguised dark-haired B.J. Blazkowicz, retaining the unshaven look seen in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and dressed in civilian clothes rather than his usual military uniform. The game mainly consists of the player shooting his way through hordes of different types of Nazis, ranging from normal soldier to ninjas. To deal with the large amount of enemies, the player has access to many typical WWII-weapons like the German MP40 or K98 rifle. In addition, during the course of the game he finds the medallion and learns four powers. While at first entering the Veil only allows him so see enemies more clearly and use strange flying creatures as bombs, he is later able to slow down time, surround himself with a protective shield or make himself stronger. However, the medallion's powers drain its energy, which needs to be refilled at power-spots that are nearly invisible in the real world.

Resident Evil Survivor 2 Code: Veronica
Resident Evil Survivor 2 Code: VeronicaResident Evil Survivor 2 Code: Veronica is a first-person shooter video game and the second installment in the Gun Survivor series. As in most lightgun games, the objective is to make it through an environment while shooting enemies. It is somewhat less typical in that you have full roaming control over your character rather than being stuck on rails. More unusually, a timer begins as you enter each area. If the timer runs out before you leave, Nemesis will appear and chase you.
