Gregory DG Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 This thread got me thinking... We ought to give these Atari-bashing mags & sites a taste of their own medicine. How about we list up all the magazines & sites that we think are the worst? I'll start: EGM - For giving the 32X version of Doom a better score than the obviously superior Jaguar version. IGN - For making the Jaguar controller the #1 worst controller ever (and probably didn't even try it.) What else you got? What site recently said that E.T. was the worst game ever? (And no, it wasn't mine!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodreptile Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I remember they imported EGM in the the Uk for a bit. Cannot say I liked it much but I just used to buy it for the jaguar reviews. So I would have already have bought doom long since. Have to say that I actually liked the jag controller... and i also liked ET.... check my info about in in the 2600 section though I probably should have put it in this one...

Tickled_Pink Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I remember they imported EGM in the the Uk for a bit. Cannot say I liked it much but I just used to buy it for the jaguar reviews. So I would have already have bought doom long since. Have to say that I actually liked the jag controller... At a time that I was struggling to come to grips with gamepads, quite literally, due to having quite long fingers (the early pads, including the PSX pads, were designed for midgets) I found the Jag controller to be a godsend. Could have had a better quality feel to it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nester Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 You know, EGM isn't the only thing that gave the 32X version of Doom a better score. I've never played either one, so I can't really say. EGM has been a fine publication for many years. It has had many good writers and editors, and it is almost fully responsible for getting me back into gaming in the late 90s. I don't really think you can completely put down a magazine because it had one review you disagreed with 10 years ago or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamTR Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Exactly, WTF would you say that EGM is bad for posting a better score for another version? 17 years of publications out the window because of the Doom score???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
