In the run-up to Halloween, I just came across a true gaming horror!
The review for Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch on Mega CD... 👻

@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games I suspect reading the review is more fun than the "game" experience.

In this case, it absolutely is. 😅
Although I have a soft spot these days for terrible FMV games.
Not sure why that is.
They do have a special kind of charm.

@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games I used to love pure FMV games or games that incorporated a lot of FMV. It was one of the first styles of games truly utilizing the benefits of CD-ROM (along with CD quality soundtracks ofc).
I assume you've tried the Tex Murphy series?

I had to look those up, so sadly no...
Looks like they only released on micro systems and PC and since I only play on handhelds and consoles, that series flew completely underneath my radar.
