Hey tempers, just a scan check on that topic as i just had a terrible experience with one of my purchases. For me i have only two from the top of my head :
- For my Wii i bought Indiana Jones and the Scepter of Kings, but i could never, ever get past the second level right after the tutorial.. That plane kept crashing on any mountain or ground as the remote is so badly sensible, it was just impossible for me to control it at all. No options for a classic controller anywhere.. Only Fate of Atlantis bonus add makes it worth but i got it from Steam to Scummvm anyway. Lucky me it was a 10€ second hand purchase, sold it quick for a bit less than half.. Good riddance!!
- The one responsible for this topic, Sherlock Holmes the Mystery of the Mummy.. I've bought the Sherlock games bundle from Steam Christmas sales and i try every now and then ever since to install and play this one but it is just too. fucking. horrible. The panoramic view and crazy mouse sensivity makes me motion sick. The graphics are blury as fog with filters, blocky as lego with none. Either makes my eyes bleed. The gameplay is filled with a hundred of puzzles to the brim with no obvious link in between. Only the music is somewhat alright. I wish i could remove this thing from my library definitely. It is depressing me just to think about starting this one, it is THAT bad.
Your turn people, please give reasons and feel good to spit out the frustration on your money losses, AVGN style!
