Worst game I've ever played, ever.

User Rating: 1 | Escape from Bug Island WII
Survival horror is a fairly popular game franchise due solely to the success of one series of game. That series of games involves zombies, mutants with blades for arms, and just recently parasites infecting hispanic people. That game franchise is Resident Evil, for those of you who haven't played Resident Evil 1 or 4. These games made me an avid survival horror gamer due to their tense atmosphere and great gameplay. Escapoe from Bug Island can barely be called a game, let alone a survival horror game.

You start off by seeing 3 blocky people get off an even blockier boat. One of them has a rifle, for no explicable reason. It then takes you to a controls tutorial where your gun-bearing friend teaches you how to play the game, and then teases you for liking the girl that went on the trip with you. He then talks you into asking her out at night by the campfire: the ultimate romantic setting. Then, just as your about to ask the question, he asks her out instead.

Before I start vomiting up my intestines due to this completely and utterly retarded "twist", let me clarify some of the things I've already said. When I say controls, I mean pressing two buttons at once and swinging the remote. It doesn't matter how you swing it. Your character will always do the same motion over and over again. And you have to hold rwo buttons at once to to pretty much everything, which shows a lack of though or insight in the controls. A lack of thought pretty much sums up the game, really. Almost everything involves swinging the remote, and they don't even work that well. Your attacks are the same thing over and over again, so no immersion is had at all.

Next, lets discuss the graphics. Super Mario 64 trounces this game in that category. Enough said.

And my absolutely favorite part: the dialogue. It's so bad, I put it in its own category. Everything your character says seems to have no purpose or meaning other than to awkwardly progress the stupid plot. Everything is short fragments, and it seriously reads how you would expect a 4th grader's dialogue between two friends would read. The story is pure crap AT BEST.

The only thing I feel bad about in this whole review is my comparisn to Super Mario 64. To all Nintendo fans, SM64 was the classic of its time, and I can agree it may have been wrongful to even mention it in the same review as this game, but It served its purpose. Don't buy this game. Don't even rent this game. Don't even think about this game anymore. Once you're done reading my review, clear it from your mind. I played the game, so I will suffer the awful memories that follow. I've been given a curse, and that curse is named Escape from Bug Island.
