119. Bubsy 3D - paulg235
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHuGLs0WftQ

Where to even begin with this one? I guess Ill start with the voice acting. The creature speaking for most of the intro was bad enough, with a cartoonish voice that makes Snarf from the Thundercats sound like a Shakespearean actor. And I couldnt even make out exactly what someone in the audience shouted out at 0:56, but it sure sounded like well all be fucked, followed by no ones going to be fucked on my watch.

But thats nothing compared to Bubsys voice, which sounds like an inexplicable attempt to channel Steve Urkel and Rodney Dangerfield together at once. Its actually really difficult to describe just how awful his voice sounds, but thats hardly Bubsys only problem. His dialogue is also horrendous, with a joke that doesnt even make sense as a pun, and basically just comes down to the hilarity of saying the word Uranus.

The rest of the script isnt much better. The sequence goes on for far too long as the alien describes the menace of Bubsy Bobcat, while an audience of fearful creatures boos (aside from the one saying Boo-ubsy). The gimmick wasnt much to work with in the first place, and it certainly didnt warrant more than three minutes. And despite its duration, the intro never even bothers to clearly explain why these aliens hate Bubsy so much (unless I drifted off and missed it out of boredom).

But this intro did accomplish one thing. It persuaded me beyond any doubt this is a game I never want to play.
