Tossing out video games(yes, garbage)

[CatPix]

Wait, so you are telling me that Farsight, the company behind the beloved pinball recreations, was also responsible for the abomination also known as Action 52? Un-freakking-believable!

 

EDIT: holy crap!

To be fair to them, they didn't CREATED the games.

Action 52 asked them to convert their Action 52 NES games to Genesis. And if you compare the games side to side, FarSight Studios did a fair job of reworking broken, crap games into half decent (if only because they actually ARE playable) mini games with decent graphisms and music.

Don't blame FarSight for just doing a job. Well unless you wanna blame them for bringing the Action Filthy-Too disease to the Genny

I looked it up and prices on the Genesis port are still quite reasonable. And there's at least one pinball game thrown in there, so...

 

However, judging from Farsight's back catalogue, there appears to be a good bit of Shovelware they've released over the years.

Never and why would I throw away a game/games that I paid for? If anything I would give it to someone for free. And you wonder why people call America "wasteful"

Games, books, albums, audio CDs, audio tapes, and video tapes - I never throw any of them away. Seems wrong. When I get VHS or Audio tapes on DVD, Bluray, or CD I put them aside and donate or give them away when I get a bunch. Albums and books, never thrown any away yet. Fortunately I don't collect any of those at a rate that some of you do so I probably don't have as many as you might imagine.
