WG Reviews: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties

The 3DO Company was founded in 1991 by a former EA executive name Trip Hawkings. the company shortly afterwards created a console in collaboration with Panasonic, LG and Sanyo. The system's advertisement boasted its Full Motion Video capabilities but it sold only 2M copies in its lifetime. So you may wonder, what went wrong? I think i found the answer.
==Story==
The plot of the game revolves around two single young adults, John and Jane who are goaded by their Mother and Father respectively. John works as a Plumber and Jane is looking for a Job, the two meet while the latter is going into a job interview. i could go on detailing the plot but that would be spoiler heavy for the game(not that you miss anything). there is also the pointless fight between the narrarrators. Score:1/10
==Gameplay==
Gameplay?, GAMEPLAY?, this thing plays like a DVD Menu, nothing more, nothing less. Score:0/10
==Controls==
You might thing, how can you screw up the controls in something like this?
Well apparently, they managed to do that. since once you press on the D-Pad to highlight different choices across the screen, there will be a delay of 2 seconds before the announcer will say something about the choice about to be selected for 5-10 seconds. and then there is another 2 seconds delay before you can highlight a different choice. Score:2/10
==Graphics==
The Opening Scene is filmed like FMV scenes of the time(what the 3DO could handle) but the rest of the "game" is still images with awkward filters. granted, some of these images are funny thanks to the filters and angles. Score:1/10
==Sound==
The sound effects are pretty basic and the music is for the most part, forgettable. that all pales in comparison to the awful voice acting, however. Score:1/10
==Entertainment==
Oh Boy. for all the "game"'s flaws(which are almost everything about it), it manages to be so horrid its actually funny. thanks to the ugly filters, hammy voice acting and cliched plot. Score:2/10
==Replay Value==
You can easily "play" the "game" through YouTube. You can see if there's any replay value in this "game". Score:0/10
==Verdict==
Score:0.7/10. This is EASILY the ABSOLUTE WORST "Game" i have ever had the misfortune of playing in my ENTIRE LIFE. sure, some moments are hilariously awful, but the rest of the game is a chore to go through.
