Bubsy 3D (1996 Video Game)
7/10
Not as bad as the internet says. It's kinda fun but requires patients and an open mind

Bubsy 3D is known for being one of the worst games of all time. Why tho? Three reasons it's graphics, voice of bubsy and it's controls/camera. I wanted to see what all the hate was so i got the game and played it all the way through and it wasn't bad. No really it wasn't as bad as i thought it was going to be. It isn't perfect and it does have it's flaws but here we go. The music is good and gets better in the later stages, sound effects are fine, graphics are not impressive but for an early ps1 game it was ok. It's colorful and it's really strange but the plot is based around a ailen planet. The story is simple and not it's strong point but game storys never really mattered to me. Voice of bubsy is stupid, corny, funny and strange but i know people will find it annoying i think it adds some personality to him and it's kinda cute. Plus if you don't like his voice you have the option to switch it of. Gameplay is kinda fun once you get the controls down, it's mostly reponsive, it's camera does decent when you are running around but it's akward when you are jumping since it moves top of bubsy. The game provides fun challenges and never feels cheap. It's controls are tank like but after playing it more it becomes much easier over time. Boss fights are enjoyable too. Good lenght since it has 18 stages and a password system to get back if you lose all your lives. It's load times are fine too. The game runs fine as well. I don't think the game is that bad once you get it's controls down. You can turn bubsy's voice of, graphics don't make a game since it's all about the gameplay. The game does have it's flaws, but i would give it a look if you are patient you might be surprised
