Please stop the madness
This game is almost too poorly made to exist. Every level of this game is horrendous chaos. Every second playing this game is agony. I hear Bubsy's grating voice in the depths of my broken psyche as I try to sleep, and where there should be dreams, there is only the ceaseless panic of knowing that this game is still in my house, waiting for the next foolish mortal to stumble upon it.Would highly recommend.

"What could possibly go wrong?"
If you're a true Bubsy fan, you would know immediately that the title of my review is actually a quote from the very first thing Bubsy says in his first game. How prophetic.Now, let me say that I loathe hyperbole. Bubsy 3D is not the worst game ever made, and believe me, I have played most of them. Despite what the fifteen-year-old reviewers on Amazon would have you believe, Bubsy 3D actually won some acclaim when it was released, and retained what was, for the time, the 3D platforming status quo. The problem with the status quo back then was that there wasn't one, and any given game might have any old control scheme, many of which didn't make any sense. Bubsy 3D suffered from exactly that, among other things; namely, the overly simplistic environments and the sketchy depth perception.And oh yeah, it suffered from one more thing: Super Mario 64 had completely blown the lid off of everyone's expectations. Suddenly, simply average platformers made only months before suddenly looked like clunky, outdated dinosaurs.And there was left poor old Bubsy. The controls for the game are clunky at best, that much is certain, and it takes a while to learn his ropes. His jumping mechanics are very different; the developers solved the depth-perception problem (partially, anyway) by having the camera switch to an overhead view whenever he jumps, giving the player overly precise control over where he lands, a la Jumping Flash. Unfortunately, he takes so long to get a running start, he will probably slide right off of that platform you just landed on so precisely. In fact, you will get to know the jumping controls extremely well, because you are going to fall off of that platform quite a bit.One thing that still surprises me to this day, though, is the sharpness of the game's resolution. No, there aren't hardly any textures to be found, as Bubsy's 3D world consists of purely colored geometric shapes, but I'll be darned if there isn't hardly a jaggy edge to them. The characters and their expressions, as well as their animations, are actually really well defined, and the 2D sprites fail to pixelate. Its just too bad that they all live in a world created by the God of Playskool.Bubsy 3D is not one of the worst games ever made. It is simply one of the most unfortunate, a rushed product shoved to the front lines to catch as much residual success off of its competitors as it could. To understand that, you had to have been there in 1996, when platformers were anybody's game. When Mario grew up he changed all that, and invited us along for his joyous adventure, from which we never looked back.Poor Bubsy.

BUBSY 2... BUBSY 3... IT'S BUBSY FREAKING 3
This game is atrocious... and no, I'm not gonna pull an IGN or Newgrounds. I rather enjoy watching and playing just pure garbage, I am what someone would call a connoisseur of garbage. Also... if you wanna get anywhere in this game you would want to JUMP everwhere, DO NOT WALK. It is rather difficult to walk and then turn and then walk, jumping allows you to go to the left or right just fine.
C**O
Pretty fun.
100%ed the game. Pretty fun.

Ha,ha,ha,ha!!!
This is exactly what everybody has said already about this game. It's bad... REALLY BAD. The intro movie alone is enough to let you know what you're in for which is a whole lot of crap.The game only features geometrical shapes and solid colors for graphics. Seriously, it really does look like if you tried to make a 3D world out of construction paper. The controls are waaaaaay off as in if you start running, it's near impossible to turn/stop/maneuver your character and jumping on enemies consists of landing *directly* under your shadow or you will get hit and die. Gliding is a smaller jump that makes you "float" a little.... it's completely USELESS unless you need to use it on those floor-fan-enemies to float up. And the sounds.... ugggghhhh... oh my... atrocious.But here's the thing about this torture devise... it's entertaining to a certain degree. Now I may be crazy but I bought this just to say "I own one of the worst games in history" but I'm actually compelled to beat it to 100%. A challenge that may result in brain damage but I'm no quitter. If you plan on getting this for the "lolz", get some beer and call a couple of friends over. This is the videogame equivalent of an Asylum movie.

Fast shipping and excellent packaging. The Leatherman tool feels very premium and sturdy.
Bubsy the Bobcat is the most annoying kitty in all of gamedom - simply because Accolade's tried so hard to shove their would-be mascot down gamers' throats. The original Bubsy was a weak Super Mario/Sonic rip-off with one unbelievably major flaw: the player died after taking a SINGLE hit. Bubsy II was better, with tighter level design and weapon power-ups (although one of them was a Nerf Ballzooka, providing for a very ignoble product tie-in; try to imagine Mario wielding a Super Soaker 2000). Yet the sequel still suffered from the fundamental problem of a very irritating lead character. Does Bubsy 3D have graphics and gameplay good enough to overcome Bub and his endless barrage of cat puns? Not quite.
Bubsy 3D uses the third-person, behind-the-character view as seen in Mario 64 and Tomb Raider. Only here it's combined with mundane jumping/shooting/gliding action. (For reasons never explained in any of his game incarnations, Bubsy has the flying squirrel-esque ability to glide downward after jumping.) As players explore each level, they collect atoms (instead of coins/rings/wool), jump on or shoot the assortment of alien enemies, and search for rocket parts (the game's \"cool secrets\" component). But the controls don't feel right - Bubsy's inertia is off, which makes the jumps more frustrating than they should be (and jumping is activity No. 1 in an action/platform game). There's just not a gameplay hook here.
If the screen shots look particularly blah, it's because Bubsy 3D's designers decided to use the Playstation's high-res graphic mode (in the game's only hint of innovation), usually reserved for title screens. The resulting polygonal worlds are detailed and cartoony, but extremely sparse, and the ugly texture maps barely help. There's also a \"fogging\" effect which keeps Bubsy from seeing more than a few hundred feet in front of him - which is rather noticeable only when watching someone else play. The animation is slightly stiff (except for the excellent animated vignettes that play when the game is paused!). In short, Bubsy moves nowhere near as smoothly as Lara, the heroine in Tomb Raider, or Crash Bandicoot.
The music is extremely annoying - the composer succeeded all too well at capturing the sound of a Saturday morning theme song (and the sound effects are merely average). Thank god the programmers included an option to turn off the sound bites Bubsy spews during the game; after having to endure that lispy, grating voice two or three times, the player may be tempted to kill his or her television.
