I wouldnt believe it if I didnt see it with my own two eyes. Truely horrid and Im scared to see even watch the videos

[Barkworm]

Well, the graphics look pretty sweet.

[ZodiacAngel]

Well, the graphics look pretty sweet.

You're right, but a Popeye video game.....

[That Matt Guy]

No worse than a Spongebob game.

[Peanut]

Yeah, but Spongebob is actually popular. What 8 year old is going to want to buy a Popeye game?

[Kid Icarus]

Heheh... Popeye = Jump Man.

Why the hell is Namco making licensed games? They've got more talent then that...

[Duke]

I had this Popeye game for original gameboy and it was actually pretty fun.

[Kid Icarus]

Well, yeah, I'm sure the game'll be fun... but really, Namco's got enough talent that they should be able to make their own inhouse characters for this game.

Popeye game? Sigh...

[Sewer Bull]

Hmm... these screenshots remind me "Animaniacs" video game much. They would look much nicer in some sepia tone, though.

Why is Sega making Resident Evil clones and Matrix stuff? They've all cheaped out.

[That Matt Guy]

Would be great if it was the WWII era Popeye. Smashing German U-boats with one fist and destroying the entire Japanese fleet.

[Spitfire]

Hell if they made a game of that even I would buy it

[classictmnt3]

pop eye show equals classic pop eye game equals crap

u know wut i mean

[Weapon X]

It's got to be better then the "Atri" outing.

[XERO]

I'm suddenly hungry for some chicken...

[KROW]

I'm suddenly hungry for some chicken...
"Popeye's chicken is frickin' awesome!" :P


I remember the classic Popeye game for the NES, which was a coin-op first if memory serves me correctly. That was nice and fun, and the music was enjoyable.

I agree with Matt here. A Popeye game featuring some good ol' Axis-smashing from about 60 years back would be a more entertaining game.

[XERO]

I'll admit it...

Popeye was a game I had trouble with. :ohwell:

I mean, I ate the spinach, and I still got my ass kicked by Bluto. :roll:

Popye? You're saying that POPYE has his own MODERN VIDEO GAME for KIDS? I don't belive it! *goes to site* oh...well I'll have to belive it now :o why the hell would somebody make a Popye game? The only thing I've ever seen Popye related, other than the TV show, was a pinball machine that stole my cash. Who would buy a Popye game that wasn't a classic though?

Some people have no soul and just want money.
Idiot who came up with the game: *with cigar in mouth* Hey know what we should do? Make a Popeye game.
Board Member: Why? Popeye hasnt been popular in over a decade
Idiot who came up with the game: Your fired! Anyone else wanna question me?!
