GameDaily bashes Spectrobes, says it doesn’t deserve Special Edition

GameDaily’s latest list is called ‘Games that Don’t Deserve Special Editions’. Spectrobes makes an appearance, and the author of the commentary gives the game quite a bashing. In my opinion, he went way too far.

Writing that feature “dug up” a ton of poor memories, chief among them, the horrid Spectrobes. In it, you play some space dude that lands on a planet and digs for fossils. That’s incredibly boring, but it doesn’t kill the game. No, the final blow comes from the hard to navigate interface and hard/lame combat. But

supposedly the kiddies love it, and thus a Collector’s Edition was born. We’d use it to prop up our wobbly kitchen tables.

I acknowledge that Spectrobes wasn’t a great game. I think my review speaks for itself. There were a lot of things that needed work. What I am certain of is that Spectrobes isn’t anywhere near as poor as GameDaily makes it out to be. It was a first outing, and it needs work.
