There's some great music in this game. Check out that riff on the second level (race level).

Quite a funny game, but not much fun to actually play.

This would be ideal on cartridge.

Excellent graphics and animations, plenty of laughs and memorable lines, just the gameplay is a bit bland. The multi-load was OK on disk.

Great game spoiled by an a terrible multiload, were the programmers having a joke on us?

My Dad wouldn't let me play this, cos I was 8. Shame though, cos now it's obvious this was made in Viz's prime.

A classic! Hilarious, profane and hugely enjoyable. Biffa Bacon was my favourite character.

Almehikilje 2004-02-06

Very funny games, absolutely to try.

An all time classic, even completed it. Anyway If your a fan of the comics (I am) this is a perfect adaptation of the City of Fulchesters' finest. A sequel of this must be in the works surely.

Very funny. A must see.
