Hang in there a little longer folks, it's almost over. That's right, we kick off DAY FOUR of "Nasty Week" by allowing the DP Random Goo Generator to extract something awful and throw it into the center of the pavement so that we may stomp on it, point at it, poke it with a sharp stick, and run it over with our automobiles.

The game is Slam City with Scottie Pippen, the experimental basketball / adventure / FMV that left most of us scratching our heads and the rest snapping the game into two equal bits.

Which one were you? Tell us about your experience with this game.

It would be great if we actually had a video of someone running this game over with their automobile.

It would provide more entertainment value, methinks.

I...uh....well.....kinda liked it. :embarrassed:

Actually, next to Prize Fighter, it's my fave FMV game. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that I was a huge Bulls fans, but it really wasn't all that bad. Yeah, it was still FMV and repetitive, but it had some decent ideas...Even playable at times!

No, it was that bad. One of the worst ever IMO. And I liked most of the FMV games too.

My biggest problem with this game is, no matter how much foliage you put between industrial zones and residential areas, you always...huh? Oh, SLAM City. Sorry. LOL
