Good idea, I'll look at both How to Train Your Dragon games first.

Jane's Advanced Strike Fighters Trickstar Games
Just Dance Kids Land Ho!
Just Dance Kids 2 Land Ho!

for me.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy
Sorry for last week, not in a great place at the moment mentally.
I have already done Hotwheels as pointless, I think I marked it as 1 on the spread sheet.
I will take Hulk and Iron Man. I do remember playing Iron Man on Xbox 360 but cannot recall a lot about it.

@ Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy
Much appreciated, thank you.

How to Train Your Dragon Étranges Libellules

How to Train Your Dragon 2 Torus Games

Reading up on these two games, it should come as no surprise that they're both lazy cash ins that offer nothing of value. While the 2nd game sounds like it is the worse of the two, the first is hardly worth wasting time on either, with nothing remotely original and no innovation and everything being repetitive and boring, mediocore at best. There's no fun to be had here for players of any age.
Pointless

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy - yeah, EG: World Tour appears to be the same as Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds. World Invitational seems to be a PS3 port of the Everybody's Golf vita game (I've played it on vita, but not on PS3).

So Iron Man has got some pretty mixed reviews, especially in the controls department. Some say they are fine and others say they are terrible.
From what I have read, I will put this in pointless as it is just a flying game masked as Iron Man & it really did not add a lot to the super hero game genre. Ambition project by the devs but nothing to set the world on fire

Hi all,

Added a score against the below:

The Incredible Hulk Edge of Reality - I remember this being pretty poor upon release and both the reviews and user reviews make it feel like a buggy PS2 port.Gave it a 1 for pointless

Hunted: The Demon's Forge - Gave it a Not Important. Very average reviews with comments that it lacks originality and polish.

@Rudy_Manchego Ah cool, I was going to look at that 🤣
I'll take Iron Sky Invasion Reality Pump

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Thank you. Any Japan only games are omitted and will be greyed out on Monday.

Jane's Advanced Strike Fighters - Abandons any pretenses of being a flight sim to focus on generic, Ace Combat-inspired arcade action. It's attractive enough visually, but the gameplay is shallow, the performance is uneven, with lots of reviewers mentioning stuttering as they played the game, and, in general, the word "boring" is thrown around a lot.

Verdict: Pointless

Just Dance Kids 2

It's a Just Dance game, but with tracks selected with children in mind. It makes decent use of the PS Move controllers, but the track selection in this one is... forgettable, honestly.

Verdict: Unimportant.

@ZeD I didn't rate the first game because, according to the resources I've looked at, the first game only released on Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii.

@Ralizah really?
@themcnoisy where did you get your list from?

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Can you update the spreadsheet? Maybe mark them red...👍

@ZeD @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy The master list is every retail game ever released including Japan. Sorry I don't know how those Japanese releases slipped through the net as I have greyed them all out

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy
you are not wrong...

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I think we should include it IF there are reviews and user opinions available online. That's my opinion anyway.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy @ZeD @Rudy_Manchego Every pal and American game is in the list. So if its available in far flung Ukraine or Greece then its in the list.

I've omitted the Japanese only releases as it amounts to about 150 games none of us have played to make it quicker. We had a game a couple of weeks back which was only available in Germany

@Rudy_Manchego
Check the Amazon reviews https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ubisoft-Just-Dance-Kids-PS3/dp/B005W...
It seemed to hit the target audience well but how important was it? Just like the sequel, it was important to the target audience but overall, it may be in the same category as the second one.
Thoughts?

@ZeD @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy @themcnoisy

I definitely thought of all that beforehand. Check this out, though.

According to the "Just Dance Wiki," Just Dance Kids 2 released in the PAL region as Just Dance Kids.

Just Dance Kids only released in the PAL region as Dance Juniors. I didn't see a PS3 version of that.

@Ralizah Jesus Christ, this is Final Fantasy 6 all over again!

Ok - two points.

1) There is a Just Dance fandom site which is must, well, unexpected.

2) This is confusing as heck. Can we just agree they are all pointless?
