Well well well, how about a lousy game based on one of the lamest actors ever appeared on TV screens? Yep you guessed right, Chuck Norris is the name of the game.
There have been many attempts to convert TV stars/shows to C64 games. The results have been abysmal most of the time, even when the games were based on good material. But when you start with Chuck Norris, what do you expect the outcome to be at the end? The dude can't act. He can't do karate to save his life. The plots of his movies are shi...yeah yeah I know, I'm supposed to be reviewing the game, not Chuck.
The first time I loaded this game it made me wonder if someone had switched my C64 with an Atari 2600 while I was not watching. That's how the game looks like, and that's how the game sounds like. But unfortunately that is not how the game plays like, as many Atari 2600 games were actually fun to play. I wonder which one is uglier, Chuck or the main sprite in this game?
I'm not sure how old this game is, but this is not an excuse for it being so crappy. There were many good games around in the early years of C64 (Remember Beach Head? Bruce Lee?).
After careful deliberation, I have found one positive point about this game: It reminds me of my good old Atari 2600 days. Aside from this, it offers absolutely nothing. If I had to choose between watching a Chuck Norris movie or playing Chuck Norris on C64, I'd choose to shoot myself.

| GRAPHICS - 1/10 |
The crappiest Atari 2600 games put this masterpiece to shame.
| | SOUND - 1/10 |
No music, and bad sound effects. I mean BAD.
| | PLAYABILITY - 1/10 |
Sorry Charlie, I can't comment on something that doesn't exist.
| | OVERALL - 1/10 |
At least it can be said that this game really does Chuck Norris justice. I wonder if that makes it a good game?! You decide.
