This time, I review possibly the worst game in the history of video games, new or old, 3-D or 2-D. It was based on one of the best movies of the decade, but the game turned out so rushed and horrible that Atari has supposedly bought land just to bury millions of unsold copies.
That's right.
For Review 7, I'm reviewing E.T, the game that was mostly the cause of the Video Game Crash of 1983.
Gameplay: 1/10
I really want to give the gameplay a 0/10. Really. The gameplay is incredibly monotonous, and basically the only things that you will be able to do are drop into holes, find random dots that are supposed to be Reese's Pieces, be investigated by a doctor who takes you in the middle of a bad-looking building, drop into holes, be chased by a policeman, run around from an energy level of 9999 until your level hits 0, which is when you die, drop into holes, find phone pieces, and drop into holes.
Sound F.X: 1/10
Nearly all the sound effects are out of place and annoying to your ear. When you stretch your head in the game, it sounds like a UFO moving. Walking sounds like small explosions. Falling into a hole sounds outlandish and loud. And those are basically all the sound effects in the game, unless you count the 2 similar music scores, which only add to the annoyance.
Graphics: 1/10
The graphics are seriously horrid. For this part I'll show you some pictures of the game.
E.T falling into a really dull-looking pit.
Is that supposed to be a forest?
Holes, holes, holes, and more holes.
Overall: 1/10:
There you have it. The worst game of all time, the rushed E.T the Extra Terrestrial which was created in 6 weeks. The game that many avid fans of the movie who were also gamers anticipated, only to realize in shame that they wasted their money once they tried it out. Thanks a lot, E.T.
