Widely held to be one of the worst games of the fifth generation era, Bubsy 3D is a shining example of just how wrong things could go during early 3D game development. The developer, Eidetic, did eventually learn how to make good games in 3D – they went on to develop the Syphon Filter series and became a first party Sony Computer Entertainment developer known as Bend Studio.

Some good – and affordable – stuff this week.

Wario Land III (Game Boy Colour) – This is a buy it now, but there are apparently two available, and $35 is good for a new first party GBC game.

Daze Before Christmas (Mega Drive) – Best condition copy I’ve seen.
