One of the biggest piece o' shyte games I've ever played. When a friend recently asked me what it was like, I ran around in circles like crazy pretending to shoot two handed guns in two different directions, usually wildly flailing my arms around and above my head.

And yet, it's worth five bucks, if only for the laughs you'll get.

Wow, that guy's head is almost as big as this Joe guy's is reported to be!
Just kidding...uh oh, I'm gonna get banned for sure :P

Well, my question is, why drake, instead of...wake?

Or how about "Dredged up Dragon Doo?"

Apparently many people thirsted for the craptacular goodness that is Drake, since it's no longer available.

Gamerankings.com lists Drake as the #1 worst-reviewed game in their X-Box database.

#1 worst game on the X-Box.

Worse than Aquaman, Sneakers, Celebrity Deathmatch, Army Men, Guy Game, Kabuki Warriors, several Shrek games, and Barbie's Horse Adventure.

Wow. That game must really suck. I must buy it for my friend's X-Box.

I wouldn't say that it is worse than Kabuki Warriors. Words cannot describe how bad that one is.

And this is the game's only redeeming value. So non-sensical, it's fantastic. Rest of the game eats it hard though.

I've been tempted to buy this game several times just for the humor value, even though I don't own an xbox.

Oh, and I wonder if ANYONE on the planet actually paid full price for it, and liked it. That'd be....weird.

Words can not desribe it's horrors. I must also agree that kabuki warriors must be somewhere near drake.

Bow to the power of Joe. He rips a game and it sells out!

Next feature on DP, Companies send in wads of cash to Joe so he can make fun of their game and then sells out in stores everywhere.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I liked Kabuki Warriors. It's just a simple fighter. That's not terrible.

Now Stake, that's a bad fighter. And Drake, well, you can't find much worse than that. But Kabuki Warriors? No, not that bad, just average.

Has anybody actually ever seen the comic book series that was supposed to start off around the same time? I remember watching an older episode of that show "electronic playground" on G4, and they interviewed these to swedish guys about it, though I haven't heard or seen anything since. Most have bombed even worse then the game.

I just got this last week. Seeing an Xbox game, any Xbox game, for $3.98 makes me buy it. I'll have to try it out soon, I played the demo way back and didn't think it was that bad, but I'll find out soon I guess.

My buddy of mine got it for me becuause he knows I collect shitty games. I played enough of it to really say it is that bad. The second or third level is *gack* going though the previous level backwards with no enemies...truly pathetic....the game is up there with Shadow: War of Succession on the 3D0

Stake: Fortune Fighters is by far the worst X-Box game. Looks like it is an early psone title. Also, the disc art is so damn funny looking. Worth the five bucks I paid for it.

Yes I own Drake, yes it is better than Stake: Fortune Fighters.

Lets also not forget New Legends. Shudder. N64 game for your X-Box.

I actually think I saw a copy of the first issue at my local comic shop, not sure though. I'll have to chekc their back issues next time I go and seeif they ever actuallly had it.

I haven't played Chaos Legion. Turok was pretty crappy. Tenchu and Unreal Tournament are decent (certainly worth $5) and Max Payne 2 is VERY good. Be sure to pick that one up if nothing else.

I liked Chaos Legion, and I'd pay that for one.
It's just hard...cheaply hard.

And Tenchu is quite good, although it didn't sell well on the Xbox, because most Tenchu fans already bought it previously on PS2 (including me)

I actually have the 'issue 0' of Drake. it's a badly-written, well-colored game advertizement. You can go to www.drakegame.com and Download a PDF of one issue.
