But of course what an oversight - between that and Heroes of Might and Magic the 3D0 software team should be thoroughly ashamed, possibly two of the key reasons Trip Hawkins and his 3D0 buddies are now begging for change outside a Subway station near you. Oh, sweet Karma.(I wonder if he cries himself to sleep at night wondering why he ever left EA?) Fuck you Hawkins, for Army Men 3D you owe me and the rest of the human race at least a decade of poverty and humilitation.
I can't beleive I forgot to mention this piece of crap in my own post. I was one of the idiots suckered into buying it just before the reviews hit...will I never learn. Max Payne did it better 2 years ago...shame on you Shiny.
The hype machine wins again.
It's about time Eidos got a kick up the ass for the TombRaider series, the first was a gem on the PSX for it's time. Sadly Angel of Darkness should have slipped into development hell and never been allowed to surface.
But I'm sure the series will return...God help us all
3D0 - any game that had more FMV than actual gameplay (which pretty much kills 75% of the 3D0's back catalogue)
PSOne - Formula One 99 - The first 2 games rocked, then somehow the same development studio managed to kill off the franchise by taking every single element of what made the game so good and flush it down the shitter
PS2 - Every game up until GTAIII, it took me that long to be convinced that it was worth buying a PS2 as nothing had impressed me at all up until then - even GranTurismo3 sucked
GameCube - SuperMarioSunshine was marketed as the best platformer since Mario64, but it wasn't even close. Only very brief flashes of that former Nintendo glory throughout. Mainly it was just derivative and disappointing.
XoBox - Nightcaster....the horror, the horror.
I don't think this should come as a surprise to anyone in my office. The guy in the cubicle next to me is probably the brainiest guy here, but JEEEZUZZZ does he stink....at least now he can use this as an excuse for his stench. Personally, I smell of faeces...but that's a whole other story.
