(I've also included Awesome Possum because I'm an asshole.) Thusly, I've assembled a list of seven games, both classic and modern, that embody the most identifiable traits of the original Bubsy games - that is to say, the traits of Sonic the Hedgehog - in addition to a few other appealing elements not present in the new Bubsy game, such as structure, creativity and fun, so that when you inevitably consider that new Bubsy game for someone because, ha ha, ~what could pawsibly go wrong~, you can instead bring some good into the world by introducing them to something they might genuinely enjoy, made by people who genunely care. It's a passionless, thoughtless, aggressive waste of time, cobbled together from the dregs of an unrelated game ( Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, in case it wasn't obvious) with no consideration for any sort of audience, subversive or sincere. There's dignity in failure the new Bubsy game doesn't even try. (It's a sin I share, so don't expect a comprehensive review.) It's one thing for a game to be poorly paced, poorly programmed, poorly designed, poorly conceived the new Bubsy game is completely bereft of purpose and ambition and exists solely to allow Bubsy's new owners, the Hong Kong IP management firm Billionsoft, to continue skimming money from people via largely ironic impulse purchases (and, I suspect, to allow developer Black Forest Games to keep the lights on until they'd found a buyer for their studio). I know it might sound stupid to people who know a lot about bootleggies, but I don't get it.Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Backis the vessel of a thousand sins, none more so than laziness. I don't know how close to the original version it is, but it's quite good to be honest.Īnd now for something completely different:Ĭan anyone tell me why do pirate games use copy protection? Most importantly, the poor quality of some of these games make it so not many people would want to play it. The Power Rangers game is not bad actually. I think they wanted to pull off the momentum thingy where you character slows down after release instead of just stopping dead on its tracks, but they didn't pull it off correctly at all. It's like it keeps on walking for like 1 second after I release the button.

Well, I am not saying all bootlegs suck, but that many of them are crap. They're kinda interesting to see, because of how they pull of some things and how much they suck :P.
