13 Video Games That Prove Superman Is Cursed

2. Superman – Nintendo Game Boy

Easily one of the most obscure titles on this list, Titus’ Game Boy outing for the Man of Steel is also easily one of the worst.

In this horrendous travesty you play as our lycra clad hero on a mission to retrieve some keys, yep you read that right KEYS. I mean why on earth would Superman be collecting keys? Has he not got better things to do, like I don’t know, save a child from a burning building or something?

Basically this game smacks of a lazy license, it looks very much like Titus already some kind of generic arcade style adventure game in the works when they secured the rights from DC and thought “hey, that will do, let’s just slap the Superman name on that.”

There is absolutely no excuse for a game like this and Titus should be ashamed. Quite shockingly this was not the worst game they put out with this name as we will go on to find out.
