Retro Redux: 7 Classics We Should Let Die

Welcome to the Retro Redux! For the month of April, I’ll be here to talk about all the good retro goodness that needs talking about!

And to get us started, let’s talk about the one thing everyone remembers from their gaming youth: those really painful games that made us WANT to step on a stray Lego and break our backs in the place of playing another minute of the game's awful-awfulness. Yet some of them have somehow permeated popular gaming culture in their wake, and a few of them just need to be let go… either they really weren’t that awful, they’re just silly-bad, or they happen to have “man” and “super” in the title somewhere.

Do you agree with our list? What would YOU like to see added? Let us know in comments and let the hateful love-fest begin!
