Thanks for joining us for bad game number 12 as we continue Gameboy month.

This is Spider-Man and the X-Men - Arcade's Revenge. The title's to long and has too many hyphens, seriously!

LJN made this piece of shit on a multitude of systems, such as the Super Nintendo, Genesis, Gameboy and Gamegear.

This game was already a not so great SNES game, so porting it to the Gameboy would make it great, no?

The sound sucks. The controls are responsive but the way the web works, it makes it almost impossible to swing from a standing position. You can't even spin a web when you're in the air...

Anyways, the title has X-Men in it. You gotta save them from someone called Arcade. Once they're saved you can use them.

Wolverine is probably one of the worst characters in the game, all he can do is punch and there's a wall I never got through on the first level.

Gambit plays totally different, it's fine although the backdrop makes it hard to see enemies sometimes and you have a limit on cards.

Storm is in a water level for some reason... Where electricity hurts her for some reason, plus you have a limit on breathe.

Cyclops controls like a damn tank. Once you're crouched you have to press up to stand.

Overall this is a pretty bad game, there's far worst... but still it's not saving it from being a bad game!

EDIT: I don't know why I actually said the sound sucks, it's actually the only awesome thing about the game Support the channel - Patreon: https://patreon.com/wildmatt or Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/wildmatt
