ALF

By: Sega
Released: 1989

Man, I really wanted to like this game. I like ALF, I like the Sega, and frankly I had fairly low expectations. The game is stupid, I expected that. But the control is terrible and the music is annoying. I give it an extra half point for depth because there are other activities besides some really bad platforming if you want to play the game that far.

What was really disappointing is the flat graphics, dull, garish backgrounds and even some blinking in the sprites, which is pretty unforgivable on this system. It's like they were trying to outdo Atari on E.T.

I can't give this game lower than a 2 rating in any category because it's not a total turd. But it's really only something you're going to want if you're a collector or really, really, really like ALF.
