13 Video Games That Prove Superman Is Cursed

There could only be one title at the top of this list, the game that truly embodies the curse of Superman more than any other – Titus’ terrible Superman: The New Adventures.

More commonly known as Superman 64, the game, like many others here, is based on the animated series. It features 3D shaded graphics to replicate the look of the cartoon and voice samples from most of the original cast. But this is pretty much where the good stuff ends.

What we have here is an ugly, unresponsive, borderline unplayable mess. Outside of some tedious side missions an awful lot of the game seems just involve flying through seemingly endless rings. That might sound pretty easy, but when it controls as well as a dead horse, it just makes things worse.

It’s pretty much impossible to find anything good to say about this game, I suppose the box art is quite nice, but that’s about it. Famously, the co-owner of Titus and producer of the game Eric Caen claimed that he was not at fault and outside interference from DC Comics and Warner Bros. resulted in the game being so utterly terrible. But that doesn’t excuse how broken the game is and, let’s just face it, Titus have plenty of previous when it comes to bad games.
