AGE OF DEVELOPER STUPIDITY
Idiocy has reached its lowest level in gaming history.
E.T. The Extraterrestrial, you have been redeemed.
We're no longer on a competition about who makes the worst game for the PlayStation. Looks like we're in the Age of Developer Stupidity, and Game Achievement's "Stroke The Pet" series is the depths of the trash gaming abyss.
The objective of this game is to stroke the pet as much as possible (2000 times for all the trophies) by pressing the X button. Each stroke is a point, so this game is basically the same as Webnetic's button holding games, but the game design in the Stroke the pet series is below all the minimals to consider it a game. ¿Why not taking your virtual dog for a walk or play fetch with a ball? Instead, we've got this garbage. Garbage that cost you way too much: 4 bucks is the price-tag for this fucking joke. ¿Is there any positive aspects on this shit? If you're desperate for 71 trophies. Yeah, 71 of the sorriest trophies that you can get in a videogame, but to be honest, better get trophies somewhere else. Buying something from Game Achievements will only encourage them to release more shit that we don't deserve.
Graphics...BAH-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA oh shit, HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA, just a dark blue background (#151333 according to Photoshop), an HD cutout photo of an animal, a dark filter to represent a stroke and that's it. Alongside with a basic Arial-esque font indicating the number of strokes. Even Webnetic's The Dog K and ThiGames The Jumping series had better backgrounds than this shit. The same can be said for the music, a crappy generic tune which becomes forgettable as soon as you close the app and get all the trophies.
If Game Achievement's mission and goal was to do something to laugh at, they succeeded...
...in making the player laugh at their imbecility.
This series of games are the saddest, most absolute pathetic display of how infantile and imbecile could game developers be. Hell, even the dreaded E.T. The Extraterrestrial game for the Atari 2600 has found its redemption, 'cos unlike Atari, Game Achievements wasn't hurried for Christmas and it had all the fucking time in the world to make a decent pet game (think Nintendogs, Tamagotchi and the Digimon V-Pet) but they were too lazy to make one, and to add insult to injury they didn't improved on the later entries. Just change the dog with a cat, a parrot, and so on.
Just burn in the fucking depths of Hell!
