Excitebike Is Such a Shit Game

Rate this Entry
I just had to share this. My nerd rage is off the chart.
There was a group of three guys in here, I'd say in their late teens early twenties. They're all looking at N64 games. One of them wants to buy A Bug's Life because his girlfriend liked it and Bomberman Hero because Bomberman is the greatest ever. While I can't disagree with the overall sentiment of Bomberman being the fairly great, his reign of greatness ended on the SNES.
Anyway, they see Excitebike 64 and the rest goes like this:

"Dude, you ever play the original Excitebike on Super Nintendo?"
"Yeah man, that game was such a shit game."
"Yeah, your bike overheated, like every five seconds. It was so ass."
"I read an interview somewhere and the guy who made it said that they specifically designed it like that. Why would you make a game where your bike overheats every five seconds?"
"May be just to see how far you could get before it overheats. Can you make it all the way across the screen? It's so dumb."

I've learned over the years that it's best to just bite my tongue and let people be. It sucks having a mouth so full of blood though.

    That's how Excitebike is! It's that Super Intendo game with the bikes. I played it once and i couldn't get across the screen before it overheated.

    I played the crap out of Excitebike as a kid, but looking back it's kinda crap. Not for those reasons though.
