Id have to say Rygar was very of the suckness. Some people I have talked to really liked it but I found the game to be so bloody confusing and frustraiting that I eventually blew it up with Bottle Rockets* I remember one of the bosses could only be beat by jumping up and down on him if you were LUCKY enough to find the one milimeter small spot on his back that only because of a GLITCH in the game you could hop on and beat him to death and THAT took A WHOLE HOUR!!! IM NOT KIDDING AN HOUR! It was like Zelda and Castlevania had a crackbaby.<P>
*I neither condone nor suggest the use of Nintendo Licenced products with Blackcat or anyother brand bottlerocket or said expolding device. Rick of injury IS POSSIBLE...but just between you and me those things blow up damn sweet!<P>------------------

Yes, I do remember the Jekyll & Hyde game, as well! I couldn't put that as the worst game, though. However pointless and annoying it was, you just coudn't help but play it over and over... and over... and over... <P>Damn that moon!<P>------------------

Bokosuka War. The ultimate in HORRIBLE NES gaming. Nothing gets you more angrier than losing and having them rub it in with the "WOW! YOU LOSE!" screen. Graphics were horrible, even for an NES game. Damn difficult to play to. I guess I'll give it another shot some time...<P>------------------

Worst I ever bought was called "Star Battle"(?) The concept sucked, the gameplay sucked, and the game could not be beaten. Period.<P>You had to fly your ship to find the 3 "power ups" (engine, gun and shields) that would make you the supership. They were randomly scattered on 20 planets and you had to find all 3. The problem was that the baddies were moving toward you and god help me even with the super shield and gun I couldn't survive more than a minute against the waves of tiny evil red-baron fighters. <P>Long a short was you couldn't GET the 3 items before the bad guys splattered you (not that it would have saved you). Plus you'd randomly run into black holes and asteroid belts that were instant-death. I circled the game through my crowd of beat-everything gamers and they cursed my name and my future children for giving it to them.

Hey, this is off topic, but I just gotta know...<P>Tirdun, are you sure it was called "Star Battle"? Can anyone else remember? Here's the thing... as a kid, I had this ruling NES game which was hella tough, but fun. Since then, I've wanted to find it and play it, but cannot remember the name! I think this "Star Battle" could be it...<P>Here's what I remember. There were a number of levels (planets). You would manuever your egg-shaped pod from the mother ship, on the surface, and look for certain pieces of (I think) the "Golden Spaceship". If your pod was damaged, you would walk around in a little spacesuit. It was hard, because the arrow buttons rotated the pod, and one button fired the thrusters, so you had to get pointed in the right direction before moving.<P>Does anyone have info on this game? I've always wanted to finally beat it!

Unlike you other people, I had no sucky NES games. Hmmm, except maybe Indiana Jones and and a non Nintendo licensed game Bible Buffet.<P>Indiana Jones only had two levels I could get to.<P>Bible Buffet was a crappy board game.

awww damn... I pity the foo' talkin' dat jibba-jabba 'bout Rygar!<P>People either love that game or hate it, there is no in-between in the land of Rygar. It's like the original theatrical release of Dune.<P>There was so much you had to give it props for though. Original landscapes/scenery, original monsters (the whole thing had a real Indian feel to it), great gameplay, kickass music. It even had RPG elements to it... you could gain experience and get stronger. It was a side-scroller and an over-header(?) before Bionic Commando came out and it pulled them both off flawlessly.<P>And are you seriously gonna sit there and tell me that the Discarmor is not right up there with Samus' gun, Link's sword, Mario's fire flower and the three sacred treasures as far as kickass videogame weapons go? I'd at least put it head-to-head with Simon Belmont's Morning Star. The Discarmor was a damn whip with a circular saw on the end of it! If I was a giant two-headed bear with a turtle shell on my back, I'd sure as hell run if I saw Rygar coming!<P>That Rygaer's a baaaad mutha...<P>Two-headed bear-turtle: Shut yo mouth!<P>I'm just talkin' 'bout Rygar!<P>Two-headed bear-turtle: I can dig it!<P>He's a complicated man, and no one understands him but the... bald-headed saaaages!<P>Two-headed bear-turtle: John Rygar!

I like the game Rygar, but I couldn't get very far. At least he could jump!
