Codemasters makes crap games. No, seriously. (http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3067&Itemid=2)

From the article, courtesy of Next Generation (http://www.next-gen.biz):


The Turds are a collection of characters flinging around toilet humor at will. Nick Pili, Codemasters’ director of Casual Gaming chortled, "We were looking for the next big thing to come along for the web gaming initiative and, after a good sit down, eventually The Turds just came out."
HA! They just came out! Get it? Hah! These guys are obviously comedic gold and deserve our money now (though apparantly the Turd games will be free to play).

You know, they could have charged for it like Majesco does with thier console releases. GET IT RELEASES AHAHAHAHAHAHA because by releases i mean it takes majesco about two and a half minutes to shoot a game against the wall and call it complete and then get a license from skittles to publish it

Can't be arsed to RTFA, but this seems unfortunate. I really like some of their work too. IGI2 was one of my fav multi-player games, even though it died before I had a powerful enough computer to really run it. Had quite an innovative mission system for the time with multiple serial objectives and spawn points which opened up upon each completed task. Kind of made it a mad dash to the next objective by players on both teams.

Ah, poop jokes never get old, do they? No matter how old or sophisticated a person gets a good poop/fart joke will get anyone to crack a smile. :D

You can tell an awful lot about a person by whether or not they chuckle at dookie jokes.

Is this the same codemasters that haven't patched the huge list of bugs present in Toca Race Driver 3?

Damn those guys are a barrel of laughs.

So how is this crap any different from the other crap they pull out of their ass and call games?

Only thing of Codemasters I ever played. Decently fun for an NES game. VERY catchy music....
