I've been trying a few Mcdonald's themed games lately. I guess MC Kids is the best for me, I don't really like Global Gladiators and haven't played too many others but I wanted to see if you guys liked any of these and start a thread discussing them.

I know of four games but there's probably more.

Donald Land - Famicom - Data East
M.C. Kids - Virgin Games
McDonald's Treasureland Adventure - Treasure
Mick and Mack in the Global Gladiators - Genesis, SMS - Virgin Games

Any other games in the line?

I like Treasureland Adventure better than Global Gladiators, but that's the only two that I own... I wish they had exploited the potential for licensed McDonald's games more... seems like they could've done way more with them... why couldn't they make games like Feed the Grimace and Catch the Hamburgler? that's the kinda stuff that I wanted to do in a McDonald's game

on a related note, why hasn't there ever been any Burger King games, other than the occaisional Flash games on their website? seems like they could've come up with at least one by now... if for no other reason than to compete with the McDonald's games... of course it's doubtful that we'll ever see anymore of those anytime soon, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's a McDonald's game in the works for the Wii, or if one was announced soon... and the current popularity of Burger King's commercials now makes me feel the same way about a Burger King game for the Wii too, but I wouldn't expect it as much... I'd expect a Taco Bell game before something like that

speaking of a Taco Bell game, where's my Run for the Border? it seems like such a natural conclusion to make... especially if it starred the chihuahua... what's his name? is it Chico? I forget... I know he's supposed to have one

and why doesn't Jack in the Box have a game by now? their commercials have been popular enough to merit one for years... who wouldn't wanna be Jack in a game? he's got money, power, and attitude... he's the king of cool!

McDonald's Treasureland Adventure is definitely the best, IMO.

Burger King released three games in late years for the XBox.

On another note, has anyone actually played Donald Land before?

Yo Noid! is a pretty good game.

global gladiators on genesis has always been one of my favorite genesis games.

i wonder if people would take it more seriously without the mcdonalds tie in.

its got great animation, game is fast and smooth, great art and color work. its like a almost like a genesis metal slug.

A long time ago. I think it was based after Burgertime.

Yo Noid doesn't have anything to do with McDonald's. Donald Land is a scrolling platformer and not anything like Burgertime.

Yo Noid! isn't a McDonalds game. (beat by vintagegamecrazy)


I've always like M.C. Kids the best. It had pretty good play control and for some reason, it kind of reminded me of Little Nemo.

That's a pirate hack you're thinking of. Basically BurgerTime with a different title screen and Ronald instead of Peter Pepper.

Oh yeah, you're right. My bad.

Treasure Land Adventure tops them all by a long shot.

Isn't it ironic that BK has almost as many games about it, too?

In mine as well.
