This set of "F" SNES reviews has been a long time coming. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to write complete reviews of games when they are this bad.

You tortured yourself playing these 3 so that we don't have to. Way to take the bullet.

Is Acclaim's name supposed to be ironic? Like a bald man being nicknamed Curly or a large man being nicknamed Tiny?

I noticed that Power Rangers is still in your upcoming reviews list even after you reviewed it weeks ago.

Damn... Triple F's. That's a first. I've never even heard of the Itchy and Scratchy game. You're right, that should have been a funny beat'm'up. How did they mess it up?
Good reviews, thanks.

It seems as though Acclaim just rushed all their games to stores, without proper play testings, and believing it's actually fun by the cool theme alone.
I dunno, but all 3 games by same company and all F's...! seems fishy that Acclaim.
Never knew of these games on SNES before, and it's good news after all lol.

Always love it when SNES games get reviewed. Too bad they had to be "Super Ninten-bombs."

That was funny. I never thought of it that way before, but you are definitely on to something.

The sad part is, these were made toward the end of the SNES lifecycle, so there's no excuse for the shoddy work.
For some reason Acclaim got a lot of big licenses. Then they probably put junior programmers to work on the games, thinking the licenses themselves would ensure high sales.
