Board 8 > Rate the Game: Battletoads

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rules:
- Rate from 0 to 10 (one decimal place is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

After a hot start, both in terms of ratings and scores, things really cooled down (see non-essential clause after hot start)

Today's game is regarded as one of the most difficult games ever made

If this were Battletoads & Double Dragon, the score would be noticeably higher.

Pretty damn good game. Glitches and some bad programming cause it to lose a point and a half.

There's a point where difficulty can lose entertainment value, and Battletoads crosses that point very quickly.

it has some fun points, but as said by tazzy.. it's just too difficult at times to be entertaining.

I have a feeling you guys haven't tried playing the bike level since you were a kid . . . it's a lot like the dam level of TMNT in that it's actually not that hard if you're not ten years old (but, just like TMNT, you'll find way harder stuff eventually)
