Bubsy the bobcat

Why do people give it the worst reviews in the world?

Everyone keeps on going on about "my god its terribly difficult."

I finished it when i was 11.

Your opinions (This is about the SNES version)

It was recieved decently by critics actually. But it didn't really distinguish itself from Sonic or Mario. Kinda like Crash.

The one that was panned heavily was Bubsy 3D. From what I heard, that was utter trash.

I love this game! i dunno about the bad reviews. personally i think this is one of the greatest games for the 16 bit consoles. the music is amazing and the levels have an aesthetic touch to them. Bubsy 2, on the other hand, was pure shiiiit. the final boss in Bubsy is really idfficult tho, just because he sprays his minions everywhere and it's one hit and you're done. The only thing i think could have used more work is the bosses coz it's just try to stay afloat above them and wait for the next hit, but if you're on the ground you're likely screwed. but it's a great game and one of my all time favorites - i still have it for the snes too and play it every so often.

this is what most the bubsy reviews I have read are like.

Good to see some other people enjoying the game ^_^

I have bubsy1 for the genesis. Some parts are hard and if your not being careful you can get into some extremely fast side scrolling (often resulting in death).

It was okay, pretty fun overall.

That game was hard? My god. I was about 9 or 10 when I finished that game on my mega drive.

I haven't played it in many many years, i remember it being somewhat frustrating with the whole "touch anything and die" theme in the game. Not to mention that most of my death were from falling at an angle and hitting an enemy to the side or something.

Bubsy kicked serious ass! Completed it many times (snes)

to avoid the running to fast to know that you're about to hit an enemy, simply realize that running full steam ahead isn't what the game's about! how can the reviewer claim unfair deaths, he's the one who's making them happen. by the way, i know that for the snes holding the L and R buttons scrolls the screen so you can see far ahead of yourself. it was a joke that the reviewer also complained about the jumps in the game. that's one of the game's beauties, and it's not like bubsy isn't equipped for them with his superhigh jumping and gliding abilities - and again L and R action to scope out what's ahead if needed, and it never seems needed to me anyways. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
