My response to Limited Run Games rereleasing two of the worst video games

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I already made a short video on this following topic. But let's be honest, everyone in one way or another going to discuss this. I figured let's go even further with it. Two famous bad games that done more than made their respective consoles look bad. It's mind blowing to me, this isn't a joke, they actually are planning to rerelease such games on newer platforms.

Yes this is my follow up to my own video.

Here's a link to that video...

Bill & Ted's Excellent Video Game Adventure
It's not even close to what excellence is, don't pretend it is. You mostly play as one of them seeking to return historical figures back to their time period. Which parts of this was from the first Bill & Ted movie. Sadly, they found a way to flat out ruin the entire experience. We are talking about a game potentially worst than Back to the Future Part 2 & 3 on the same console. Both these licensed abominations are from LJN!!!

It didn't help there wasn't as many decent licensed games back then. The compilation also comes with the Game Boy Bill & Ted, I'll let that one slide. The NES game is so amazingly bad even by today's standards. It's notorious among most video game reviewers by this point, that's how terrible the game is. Honestly, I felt like do things rather than punishment myself trying to play this.

A massive waste of time as well as my brain cells!!! Seriously, they couldn't come up with a better way to find things. "Oh I'm an idiot, maybe doing this a few times something pops out." The game doesn't even follow it's own rules, which means your entire view on things will be pulled right out from you. Bill & Ted, even you guys are smarter than this garbage.

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties
Let's see what else about this I could rip a part. The story just isn't horribly told. No it doesn't even make sense in the slightest. Two of the characters are being pressured by their parents to settle down with someone. This shouldn't been considered for a story of a video game. Based on what I seen, you have to listen to voice overs again if your cursor goes back to the previous choice.

Some choices do leave to game overs but the way it's set up you wouldn't notice which ones. Yeah it's that bad the game does a horrible job explaining even choices to you. This was meant to be a porn game but there's little to none sexual things in the game at all. I seen footage of porn games on Atari 2600 games that surprisingly displays more than this.

The length seems to be a little over half an hour long. Really because it seems from the first beginning the game really drags on for an eternity. The editing is laughable at times as if they couldn't put more time & effort into it. There's a director that even got a movie based on his career for similar techniques, Ed Wood.

Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is slightly I do mean slightly more of a game than CrazyBus. All you do in that is literately go left or right that's it. Oh you got to love the theme song lol. Back to this, Plumbers Don't Wear Ties doesn't even follow it's own rules either. There is a plumber that does wear a tie!!! Oh wait we haven't even got through the pits of Hell yet.

3DO didn't do what most game consoles do where they openly allowed people who could make games make some for 3DO. Why am I brining this up all of a sudden? There's some amazing (sarcasm) games on the system that we gotta mention. The stuff of legends like Way of the Warrior and Shadow: War of Succession.

Now you know a game is very bad when it's reputation even higher on the crap scale than those. AVGN made it clear Shadow: War of Succession to him was the worst Mortal Kombat rip off he ever played. It's kinda impressive actually to make a game even worst. There should be some kind of an award for something this terrible!!!

This game has variety but in a way that's more wtf territory than anything else. Like a guy in a chicken mask, it just happens nothing virtually at all to go. Some cheesy bad filters that could get a small room of people to throw up. The music, you gotta love the music (sarcasm) it should be in everyone's playlist. Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is mind blowing levels of bad games.

Conclusion
Even the NES Bill & Ted game had slightly better audio usage than Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Also you get to explore several locations within history helps with the very limited stuff the 3DO game. Neither wins in color usage because in ways both outdone each other to the point. Yeah I could see the overall colors present in Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is easier on the eyes.

At the same time, what's rougher to keep looking at is those filters. I would even say for Bill & Ted NES game, the aspect of time traveling with flaws is easier for me to look at. I didn't say it was any easier to play. Bill & Ted has a slightly we're talking the bare minimum effort imaginable on character dialogues.

Of course that gets ruined by the horrible dialogue system. Neither gets a passing grade on those, in fact they both received a nice big fat F!!! There is a password system in Bill & Ted, that's helps to get through the suffering faster. There isn't even a pause feature in Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Which means you should probably use the bath room before playing this one, yes I stole that from Console Wars.

Which means your suffering keeps going until either you give up very likely in this case or somehow you pulled through to beat it. Plumbers Don't Wear Ties still goes out of it's way to give you the option which ending. Now that kinda defeats the purpose, I rather play more Harvester a better game. Also Plumbers Don't Wear Ties appears to have infinite continues, that by itself makes it torture to play!!!
