Right I am making this thread because I now well and truly believe that this is the worst game ever made - I played it recently and oh dear it is just beyond belief how bad this game is. The main reason I bring this up is for two reasons.
1) This game is so bad that it is good because it is so stupidly funny
2) I have come across a copy on ebay and I am thinking of getting it because it is so obscure rare but bloody funny at the same time.
But I'd also like to tell others about it too for those who have no idea of this games existence.
I'll give you the description of the game from Wiki as it describes it the best
Description:
Lex Luthor has created a virtual version of Metropolis and has succeeded in trapping Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen and Professor Emil Hamilton within it. Superman must enter the virtual world to fly through countless hoops, save his friends, and stop Lex Luthor. Other villains Superman must contend with include Parasite and Brainiac.
Gameplay:
In most levels, Superman is forced to fly through a series of rings within a time limit (unless the player plays easy mode; the rings disappear but the timer stays). The "virtual Metropolis" is filled with what the developers called "Kryptonite fog" (which was actually the draw distance), supposedly to slow him down. Superman has several other powers, but they are rarely used.
To see for yourself, just watch this review and I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on this game, whether you have played it or not!

oh and the message you'll see most in this game is not "game over" or "you died" but "LEX WINS"
