Plumbers Dont Wear Ties [NON-PC]

[BeefontheBone]

Being a PC Gamer reader, I'd love to try what they described as the worst game in the history of games for myself (actually, did someone finish reviewing Barbarian like they were going to?) and see if they were right. Anyone got it by some weird chance? (bought by your auntie to replace the poorly-knitted socks one christmas, perhaps.)

3% I believe this got in PC Gamer in the UK, which is close to their worst review, that prize went to Big Brother 2 which received n/a% due to its lack of any merit whatsoever. Anyway I'd like to try this game but it might not fit with the good games image that abandonia has. Maybe HotU have it?

I'd seriously want this too, I've been looking for it for ages ... It's become an infamous classic because of the bad reputation it got.

[PrejudiceSucks]

Yes, but eating flaming torches for your own amusement is classic, and it amuses others too.

Why not try that?

And yes, it is PC Gamer UK's 2nd worst review ever. Yep, Big Brother 2 got 0% (N/A%).

Why not ask for some good games, hey?

Anyone want to put the review for plumbers don't wear ties (from PCGamer) up in this thread? I'd love to see it.

[BeefontheBone]

I don't have it (before my time) and it doesn't seem to be archived on their site - but they went through quite a long phase of mentioning it quite often. I do have the Big Brother one somewhere though I think. It got N/A% because they decided it didn't qualify as a game :D

I agree this game really looks very cool LOL

[Wahoo]

what did big rigs : over the road racing get as a score? :S i know it got a 0 on gamespot.

After reading both reviews, I think that my first comment should not only stand, but be improved upon -

If anyone I have even vaguely heard of plays this game, I will cover their genitals in petrol and light said fuel with razorblading them to create a spark. Even if no such spark is created, then they will still endure pain no less horrendous than playing this game, or even looking at it.

Thank you for reading my Public Service Announcement.

P.S. I really do mean this. It looks exploitive in the extreme.

[Lizard]

Ah this game is really goreous LOL
It looks still so ugly like when I played it last time..... :max:
to Prejudice SucksBefore covering some of my organs in petrol and sparking it I get money to play it. :ph34r: (It was a challenge,my friends thought that there isnt somewho dumb enought to play this game,well I was :max: )

Well I read the review for this game, but the reviewer reivewed a completely different game!

The Barbarian waiting to be uploaded is from C64 (it's a double pak of Barbarian 1 & 2) and has nothing to do with the horrid platform game with that low rating.
Here's are samples of the games!

OK, Lizard, you are a special case. But really. Don't play this game unless you have to / are getting money due to it.
