Talk:Superman 64

This video clearly shows what appears to be a major glitch. Should the fact that the game was plagued by glitches be mentioned? Bugs were a major criticism of Superman 64.

thread_title: Glitches

message: This article is simply a mass of opinions and fake reviews.  Citing Seanbaby as a good review is simply incorrectly.  The article mentioned is for the worst games, and like this entry, is clearly written in a satirical attitude.  This article right now belongs more in Uncyclopedia than wikipedia.  (At least Uncyclopedia is actually funny, sometimes.)
: I agree, the article was apparantly only created to bash the video game instead of providing information for those interested in the game. Although it is true that most reviewers have considered it a terrible game I feel the article should be more focused on the actual game than the reviews it received. This article fails to mention the game's game play and graphics and the story behind its development. Keep in mind although it is not against the rules to provide information on the critical reception a video game receives it is discouraged by Wikipedia. This is a place for factual information given in a neutral tone, not harsh biased opinions given in a satirical one. And your comments on Uncyclopedia are irrelevant Eatspie (talk) 03:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

replies: text:  True, but that doesn't mean the entire article (including game play and development sections) should be about Superman 64's negative reception, that doesn't mean every single sentence should refer to how repetitive the game is and make jokes at its poor quality. The reason this article is so poor is the fact a majority of the article's edits include irrelevant and poorly sourced information. K.H (talk) 23:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that critical reception is important, particularly when the article is about a game whcih is only notable for being widely considered as the worst the worst N64 game ever. But at the same time i don't think it's ok to have argumentative comments right in the middle of the article, i just removed a sentence saying "which conflicts with the immediately preceding sentence; which is it?"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Larryisgood (talk • contribs) 19:27, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

message: *GameFAQs report on Superman 64
This isn’t a report, it’s a list of user-submitted reviews. I would change “report” to “reviews” myself, but this article is protected for some reason. —Frungi 18:46, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: "Reports"

message: It also has little or no good reviews. (Unlike Plan 9 from Outerspace, the worst movie ever made that got reviews saying it was so bad it was good)[1]
That's a rather odd comparison -- too odd, inasmuch as it's irrelevant.  I'm taking the liberty of removing the reference. The Dragon of Life 17:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

text: There are other video games with the title "Superman" or "Superman: The Animated Series". This particular one was released on the Nintendo 64 and is the most notable Superman release for that platform. Compare "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" → "Zelda 64". 71.126.174.162 (talk) 04:55, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Superman 64" title 

message: There needs to be a line like this: "Superman 64 has achieved almost legendary status among gamers and prompts many to play the game just to experience how bad it really is." --68.207.156.253 (talk) 22:23, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Change 

message: The article states that there was a planned multiplayer, but I distinctly remember there being some sort of bumper-car-based multiplayer mode included in this game. Can anyone verify this?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.98.70.103 (talk) 23:28, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: There definitely was, and I remember it clearly, but I already know that other users around here will delete anything I add, claiming "original research" or some other nonsense, in spite of the fact that the source would be the game itself... --74.80.61.121 (talk) 04:49, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The whole point of WP:Verifiability is that people can verify the information is correct without purchasing/playing the game (or reading the book, seeing the film etcetera), that is why you cannot use the game itself as a source. That being said, the source that says multiplayer is planned is from an article that was released before the game was finished, accordingly it is not possible for that article to confirm that multiplayer actually was or was not in the game. I will add "multiplayer" to the infobox and change the information form that reference as I believe it is not helpful to anyone. Freikorp (talk) 01:18, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Multiplayer 

message: Nintendo Magazine System (Australia) surprisingly awarded this game a score of 80% (page 33, issue 77). Just thought I should mention that if someone wants to add it to the article; I have the full review on scan. Freikorp (talk) 11:20, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I added it myself. If anyone wants the scans just email me. I didn't believe this game could get a ranking that high until I read it myself. Freikorp (talk) 00:26, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

message: Since the game was developed and released by a European company but based on an American property, I'm not sure whether to format the dates the British way or the American way (Pun intended). Any thoughts? HumanxAnthro (talk) 20:51, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
