Re: Horrible DOS games
Make it stop! Wow. Those were really bad.
The first game that I can remember playing that was so bad that I just couldn't continue playing it was Skunny: Desert Raid. The game was too hard, and I hated that stupid squirrel. It turns out that most of the Skunny games were reasonably good: I enjoyed playing Back to the Forest and Wild Wild West, and Save Our Pizzas is probably my favorite Skunny platformer. A lot of people seem to have fond memories of the Skunny games, so even Desert Raid is on the site, but I don't like it. Frankly, I think all of those games would have had better sales if the hero was human, or something less stupid than Skunny. If I was going to do an Angry Video Game Nerd episode about a DOS game, I would nail Skunny just for being Skunny.
Beyond that, I find dozens of little games that were programmed by just one guy who hoped to get a few dollars for a game that they knew would never be considered a classic. What shocks me is when a game is STILL bad even though it was published by a real company.

Re: Horrible DOS games
How could you hate Skunny 
!!!!
Albeit the Skunny cart was a really crappy plagiarism of Mariokart.
I have to say I really hated Blood though.
