I oficially hate ULTRA now, 'cause they're the ones who butchered Q*Bert. Hell, even the ColecoVision Q*bert is more arcade accurate than THAT.

Q*Bert's, uh, nozzle looks like a limp penis in the NES version. LOL

You think the game looks bad on the NES? Have you heard how it sounds? Ugh. That's the main reason I won't play it.

I didn't think the Nes version of Q Bert was THAT bad.

My biggest beef with NES Q*bert is controlling the little guy.
Y'know, maybe I should make sure I've got some good solid context behind me before making such a statement. LOL

Well, you guys have turned me off Q*Bert forever. Your talk about phalli has disturbed me enough to burn my cart of the NES version. x_x
Thanks loads. :fist:

You don't even need that. Look at Q*Bert when he is facing away.

Q*Bert 3 for the SNES is pretty darn good... IF you turn off the overly busy backgrands and IF you have a proper joystick for diagonal control... not a control pad turned some weird way.

Is the NES version still better than the 2600 version?
The TI-99 version is awfully nice, I thought.
(I will refrain from mentioning Pubert, which will ruin Q*Bert for you further.)

Yeah I read some reviews of Q-Bert for the NES which pretty much turned me off from it, even with the rarity value. Q-Bert 3 I would like to play sometime though.
Anyone ever play the older Q-berts for CV and Atari and have any issues controlling the foul-mouthed penis?
Jorpho
08-17-2003, 09:20 PM
Oh, the CV version was pleasant enough, except that Q*Bert's eyes were hollow and Slick was barely recognizable. (I think Sam was missing entirely.) Still, it was a nice touch that if you made Q*Bert jump off the pyramid, you could see him fall off behind it and go off the screen.

It's also important to note that in the Dreamcast version of Q*Bert, neither the females nor the children of the species have noses, leading me to believe that they aren't really NOSES at all.
And speaking of limpness, you should see Q*Bert's female counterpart Q*Bertha in Faster, More Challenging Q*Bert. She's enough to scare the pubic hairs off the most desperate man!

That's it. This topic's out of control, and I have been scarred for life. At least this isn't as bad as Nude Punch-Out... DO NOT DOWNLOAD THAT ROM HACK, OR YOU WILL FOREVER REGRET IT!!!

Now I am curious. Are there any screenies available?

You think The NES version looks bad you should try the TI computer version
or even the 2600. But for me when I play QBERT I play my Playstation version.

Guess you could check the Video Game Museum (www.vgmuseum.com) for screen shots... the Playstation version is supposed to be the same as its Dreamcast counterpart, so that should be of some help.

This is soooo off topic, but Does anyone else know who ORIGINALLY said this quote? I feel stupid for knowing this but it is a movie quote, and DukeNukem was definately not the first to say it. It may be rephrased... But it was hilarious!!!!!

I did a little Googleing, and I found out that the quote comes from a movie called They Live. (http://www.mutantreviewers.com/rtheylive.html)

Hell yes! It's the mighty Hot Rod himself, Rowdy Roddy Piper (John Nada) from the spectacular John Carpenter flick, THEY LIVE.
Here's the actual line, as uttered by Hot Rod:
*enters bank with shotgun*
*looks around whilst wearing "the sunglasses"*
*sees all the nasty alien types*
"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all outta bubblegum."
One of the best movies ever. 8-)

Actually, no. Q*Bertha is much, much worse. She looks like a California Raisin with fat bulges instead of wrinkles. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reach her in the actual game, because it's way too hard... and fast... and challenging. I had to get a sneak peek by looking at the game's graphic tiles.

With the right third party arcade-style joystick, it's bliss.

What really sucks is playing the PlayStation version with that sucky D-pad!
You can turn the controller diagonally, but it never feels right...
