Top 25 Worst Comic Book Video Games

1. Superman 64 (Nintendo 64)

Superman 64 will forever be known as the kryptonite of the game industry. It's just so pitifully awful on so many levels, we don't even know where to begin. Unresponsive flying controls, horrendous graphics, atrocious audio and lame missions (let's fly through some more rings) had us ready to chuck the cartridge into a wall. For shame, Superman.–Robert Workman

    I just love how there "reviewers/writers" review games compairing something done 20 years ago to something fresh off the Gamestop shelfs... Of course 8/16/32/64 bit graphics are going to look horrible compared to todays games, that is a no brainer, which I think is what these writers are... I mean come on, do these guys cut/paste much? Not 1 but 2 games that are obvious cut and paste jobs? What's the matter, can't write for yourselves? Here is something I find VERY funny, just yesterday I read their "Horrible Batman Games" article but never once was mentioned the Batman: Dark Tomorrow which on here is being called "easily the worst of the Dark K***ht's video games."! How the hell can you call this game that in one article but not even mention it in an article ABOUT horrible Batman games?!?! Yet another article that show just how far up the rear of microsoft and nintendo these guys are, I wonder just how many times they can put "this game sucked on the Sony/Sega system but was totally awesome on the nintendo/xbox"... Only reason I continue to read these articles they put out is to sit and LAUGH at how much fanboyism is put into writing these articles... I do agree, too many great comic book heroes and heroines have been put into piss poor games and it really is a crying shame. But that goes back to the greed of the company making the game and trying to cash in on what ever moneys they think they can get by slapping what ever title on the cover and putting which ever popular character in the game. It's all just sad, very very sad... And one last game, why is it anytime a game is "bad" someone has to bring up "this game is sooo repetitive" or what every variation you want to use, get a clue, LIFE is repetitive, you can't get away from it and you can't use it as an excuse. If you want to use it as a reason you don't like a game and returned it to where you bought it you might as well just go and commit suicide cause life is far more repetitive then any game. I just love how they call a bad game "repetitive" no matter the genre but a good game of the same genre you don't hear a single thing about it being repetitive, a great example are fighting games. How many "bad" games have been labled "repetitive" while games like MK and SF are just "awesome" and never viewed as repetitive even though they clearly are...

    I agree with some of the comments that are on here, if you are going to compare games based on graphics, then you should compare system to system, otherwise that is like comparing Pong, on the Atari system, to any game that would be on Wii or XBox 360. You are comparing different generations of systems which is not fair. However just basing the comments on game story lines or missions, would be more acceptable, but also you have to take into consideration which overall generation the game was designed to appeal to.

    and almost forgot, i think that spiderman X-men: arcade's revenge for the SNES deserved a place on the list, some missions were completely nefarious like gambit's wheel of doom or the 2nd mission of wolverine escaping from juggernaut, also control was hard, sometimes a simple jump becomes a certain death... and wolverine adamantium rage wasn't that bad, the problem was that the game had several button combinations that you won't be using on the game

    i liked spawn the eternal, idk about all you, but that game wasn't bad.

    I was talking about the teenage mutant ninja turtle game...

  • csilvacscl1 on 3/10/2009 11:50 am

    if you're going to compare games graphics, OBVIOUSLY you need to compare them with games on the same console or port outs, if we compare TMNT with mighty final fight graphics, MFF has a superb design...

    I started to read some of what has already be written, but a lot of you are off tangent (not a bad thing). I would like to say though that, this is one of the best games that ever came out on the NES. Multiple characters, multiple bad guys, decent story (from what I remember, and who can forget riding around in the turtle mobile. This game was very, very challenging (I never did beat it). This game is what me and my brother played, every Saturday mourning after Saturday Morning cartoons. Oh yeah, and if anybody does remember you could also throw Chinese stars and boomerangs if I remember correctly, now that is cool.
