Quoted from dmbjunky:

Well it wasn't as bad as three. At times, Robocop 2 felt like it was made for TV with the set design, lighting and camera work but with a layer of violence and language to make it R rated.

You know I get excited anytime I get to post this. Robo 2 is a classic. Robo 3 is way bad, but the overall idea of cheap import Japanese robots is kind of amusing. At least the TV show was interesting.

Quoted from dmbjunky:

I'm curious why South Park didn't live up to it's potential.

It's simple, Sega made it.

EDIT: For me really thinking back over the years I might have to agree with X-Files. Came out at the right time, X-files was still hot, and splat. But again...Sega.
EDIT 2: I was not a JM movie fan at all, but the whole cyberpunk aspect had a lot of possibilities...unforturnently that game was garbage out of the box.

from the first post:

I think SP is assumed to be the WORST theme fail of all time and not really needing discussion, hence its omission

Another Balcor classic!
