I want more reviews/analysis/let's plays of terrible media

[adamsaccount]

You should watch The Room,

It brought us the line "I didn't hit her, it's not true, it's bullshit I did not hit her, i Did NAHT! Oh hi Mark!"

edit; video

lets plays of bad media is always fun, though as far as reviews and analyses go there is like millions people doing that already, and its not like thier hiding.

Proton Jon has one of the better Let's Plays of Superman 64 I've seen.He gives a lot of info about the game and even interviews one of the original devs,gives background info about the characters,goes in-depth on the glitches etc

I just wish he'd get around to finishing it.He got to Stage 6 and just seems to have stopped there.Still it's well worth checking out and so is the rest of his channel

I think someone originally shared this on here, but it's got to be mentioned. I haven't even seen the show and it's hilarious.

Good god that show is bad.It makes other "reality" tv look intelligent by comparison.I'm pretty sure a new season just started so hopefully the lads will be doing a new season of Tallafonia Swipe soon

And I read the review of the game that should not be named. Seriously. You might know the game - it's quite infamous as the worst RPG created ever. If you don't know the name - you don't need to know. Let's just say that it's so bad it doesn't have a Wikipedia entry - that has to account for something. I started watching a video review of it, but the guy went pretty in depth - 7 hours worth of depth. I couldn't handle that much atrocity, although, kudos to the dude for surviving it.

Could you post a link to the video in question? I'm interested.

OK, however, at a disclaimer that there have been no exaggerations of how bad the game is. I'm sure it may sound like it but it's not - at no point has any review of FATAL been making claims with no basis in reality. In fact, the only reason it may sound like they are pretending it's a big deal is because you're not shown the full picture and picking random examples just leaves people thinking "OH, that's probably cherry picked, it can't be that bad". It can. It is. I thought this way at first. I checked it for myself.

Here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAOElEcxtQk] is a short review, which has one of the most descriptive lines ever


And here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z23PK0TPwjg&list=PL4E733819BDF2768E] is the long review in a playlist. The guy seems pretty thorough - 14 parts, half an hour or so each - and he's going through each section in detail. Finally, the RPG.net review [http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/14/14567.phtml] is a classic and tries to show everything, so you do get a full picture.

Well, yeah, I do. I really like reading/watching about movies, books, games that are widely popular as being atrocious in one way or another, being criticised for their faults. More in depth than a quick "This is really bad". I've been on a binge lately, so I ran out. Suggest more - alternative reviews are also welcome. Also, let's plays of frustrating games (the games could be meh, don't need to be that bad, or just really frustrating - example I Wanna Be The Guy) are also welcome. The funnier the better.

I've seen the the Red Letter Media review of the Star Wars Prequels [http://redlettermedia.com/plinkett/star-wars/star-wars-episode-1-the-phantom-menace/].

The Game Grumps' LP of Sonic '06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7AtQHXCW5s&list=PLRQGRBgN_Eno6hKuBDtqL9JBv5k5DRGd1] (still being updated, soon to finish)

50 Cents Blood on the Sand [http://lparchive.org/50-Cent-Blood-on-the-Sand/] (although, the videos seem to be missing now)

Graham and Paul's LP of the Cursed Crusade [http://loadingreadyrun.com/videos/archive/gplp/date/desc/_] (yay, finally new episodes!). Also, all the LPs there - I even watched a couple other X-Men: Destiny LPs - one for each other character (and as it happened, each picked different source of skills, too, so it was good. But those were on YouTube and long ago - can't remember who did those).

Spoony's review of Ultima 9 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZzO2bgB4Oc&list=PL874037C61CC64059]

So, any more would be appreciated. I would prefer videos but written stuff is also applicable.

wasnt 50cent blood in the sand an pretty good shooter with a bad story
most of the people i find ranting on this game either dont like hiphop or dont like him and i dont think thats enough to say a game is bad.
its one of the reason stopped watching grahms stuff for a minutes , he thought a critque of hip hop culture was a game review when he stopped by zero puctuation

More like an average shooter with a bad story. If you're into modern shooters, I guess it's not so bad - it apparently has that apparently that So Bad It's Good vibe. The guy doing the LP actually quite liked it and apparently played it a lot. I'm not into shooters myself, so gameplay-wise I found it quite meh and unappealing. The story is quite...I dunno - something a bad cheesy mainstream rap song on crack (more crack than usual) would be like, I suppose. If you really like 50 cent or just...well, cheesy rap in general, it's not too bad. In fact, I can't even call it terrible by any stretch it's just...mediocre-ish mostly, with parts some people will like due to the So Bad It's Good qualities. It won't go down in history as atrocious, I don't think, it still merits a play, even if it's just renting it to try it.

what is cheesy rap to you, gagster rap, because its called that for a reason. i dont find mr jacksons music to be that bad actually dude smarter than people give him credit for, way smarter , her is also a composer.

and i am fine with some modern shooters, not with a majority of them though, i like mr jackson and for me the gameplay was pretty good so i got into it.
its no halo though

No, not gangsta rap itself - I'm fine with that. What I find cheesy are tracks that are only about bling, bitches, cash, and cars and...yeah, that's all of it. Maybe throw in some guns. And that's pretty much the plot of the game - 50 cent uses guns to get his stolen bling back. And you have a button for insults, since that gives you more points.

eh i can agree with you , everyone body has tracks like that, and thats fine rock music has been doing it for decades but sometimes i gets taken way to far. or done poorly (drake and lil wayne) but i understand you . i fancy mr jacksons music though, especially his older works.
speaking of older works, do you listen to Eminem, i am listening to his very first album at the moment, before the slim shady lp, its quite odd
