I have a ton of games in my backlog that I've either never played or played very little. So I thought it might be fun to sample semi-random games and upload them so everyone can see how terrible I am at them!

So here we have a game called CrimeWave for the Saturn. It was developed and published in North America by Eidos Interactive in 1997. I remember reading about this game way back in the '90s when it was first released. It's a neat game that I could probably get into, but I feel it has two major issues: 1) erratic and oftentimes poor framerate; 2) a spastic camera that makes the floaty controls even worse. The concept is simple, just drive around shooting enemy vehicles before your rivals get them or time expires. You lose points for destroying innocents and need to reach a certain point total to advance to the next section. Surprisingly, this was a third party exclusive for the Saturn, so it might be worth checking out just because of that. I captured this video on a Saturn.
