    Rubbish Neo Geo games

    As the last thread seemed to praise more or less every Neo Geo game, I'm going to start a thread that allows you to list 5 Neo Geo games which are poor or fairly average, the Neo-Geo has quite a lot of them.

    So to start you off here is my 5 fairly poor Neo Geo AES games...

    Burning Fight - Look Final Fight on the Super Famicom / Mega CD is better, go play that if you want to play a decent scrolly beat 'em up.

    Sengoku - I played this on Neo Geo CD and was a game I refused as I thought 10 quid on Neo Geo CD was daylight robbery

    2020 Baseball - It's baseball but it's rubbish, play Baseball Stars 2 if you want to play baseball

    Super Sidekicks 3 - Arcade football games are fairly dated now, Super Sidekicks is a fun pick up and play game as is Super Sidekicks 2, 3 is just taking the piss and don't get me started about the others

    World Heroes - Although 2 Jet and Perfect are fun(ish) games, the first one is a blundering mess of a fighter. Even at 15 quid on AES it's still like being mugged in broad daylight.

    I could go on, but you Neo Geo owners that praise the machine know what the guilty games are...

    The first Fatal Fury is total wank, and makes you realise how far the machine moved from its early fighters to decent games. And how quickly. Slow, imprecise, awful responses and hit boxes...

    I have Baseball Stars Pro, and it's awful. In fact, it's so awful it comes full circle and makes you laugh. The system of hitting and catching is so inept, two-player is a riot, as it's a mess of getting people instantly out, or swinging stupidly curvy balls at each other. Fun for all the wrong reasons!

    Art of Fighting. You call this art?! Dreadful game because it is ludicrously, coin-gobblingly unfair.

    I'll have a think about some others

      Heh, waiting for someone to say "all of them" :P

      Art of Fighting 2 is truly awful. And Fatal Fury 2 is far from good too. Fire Suplex is just strange, although I haven't put enough time into it to decide whether it's good or bad yet.

        Heh heh, I would have said AoF2 and FF2 as well, but I feared a visit from some of the hardcore Neo boyz

        Super Sidekicks (or is it SS2?) I played at Jashin's house. Shocking. Although the penalties and free kicks are quite good. The rest is like ice skating wearing slippers, or something.

          And what is wrong playing football wearing slippers on ice???

          Joy Joy Kid is not too good - gives me an instant headache.

          Baseball Stars 2 is a lot, lot better than any of the other Neo Baseball games, and is still a fantastic game today.

                    Legend of Success Joe is the out and out stinker though, looks like a NES game and is even less playable than your average mobile phone 'game'.

                    8-man and Ninja Combat are honourable mentions too.

                      Could not agree more. AoF 2 Is absolute ****e. Unlike SvC Chaos wich is infact the Arch-Bishop Don "Magic" Juan of games.

                        svc chaos is dire - hyped up rubbish

                        aof2 is mis-understood, infact that its absolute nails puts alot of people off

                        all the mahjong games are awful
                        all the quiz games all awful
                        world heroes - all are awful

                        plus many more

                          Those are ****ing ace games man!

                          Yes, mostly everything else you mentioned is wank. Thanks for clearing all that up.

                          Even if AoF2 is too difficult for most (after you learn the enemy patterns it's a whizz), the 2p mode is AWESOME and so f'n QUIK! I've never seen matches turn around so fast on any other 2D fighter.

                            AOF2 is ****ing great.
                            Pussies
                            Love the big sprites and the brutal-ness of it. Classic.

                              AOF2 is great, once you learn how to play it it becomes a piece of piss, and great fun to boot. I've beaten Geese countless times.
