The more NES games I play, the more I realize that a large majority of these games are subpar to downright awful. The NES had well over 650 games, and I am willing to bet about 450 of them are games that belong in the stinkers section. And incase you weren't reading the header above correctly, I meant badass as in downright terrible. Well, I don't know where to start with this thing, its just terrible. You basically control some dude in a rubber tube who goes down rivers and picks up trash while avoiding hazards such as sticks, trees, alligators, and the occasional hunter or mexican in a sombrero shooting at him. Sounds like it could be decent? Forget about it. Controls in this thing are unresponsive, you have to do a lot of fine movements in order to avoid many things, and your guy either moves too much, or not at all. Graphics are horrible, oftentimes you can't tell if that's a tree, or a moving alligator, or one of those plants you can actually go through. You can't even see bullets or other things that fly at you half of the time either. Sound consists of nasty blips and bleeps designed to grate at your nerves. Add to the equation the loopy music you get to hear in EVERY stage, and you have a recipie for torture. In case you couldn't tell, you won't have fun playing this game...however, if you are a masochist, I won't stop you from having fun. Don't say I didn't warn you though. -Joel- Rating: 1 alligator/mangled plant (which one is it?) out of 5
