unrecognized classic
Though it rarely gets the attention it deserves, Toejam and Earl is positively the best game I've played for Genises. The graphics, though of course nothing like modern graphics, still hold up well. but the game play and the characters are what make it great. the two are aliens from funkotron, a very funky planet far away. however, earl crashes into an asteroid, and as fate would have it, they crash land on the most insane planet in the universe- earth. your job is to navigate them through different levels with roads, ponds, and islands in the middle of space picking up presents (power-ups) in order to find pieces of your spaceship and then the elevater up to the next level. the game is best played with two players, which is what the creators had in mind when making the game (go to their site, www.tjande.com to read up on them). anyway, the two-player mode is even more fun, and the split screen works surprisingly well. also, as i mentioned, the characters are hilariously, from the chickens with mortars to the herd of nerds to the wiseman in the carrot suit. if you have a genises, buy this game. best of all, everything is randomly generated, so it never gets old!
WITHOUT A DOUBT the best game ever
I've played a lot of games in my time, but all have paled in comparisson to the genious of a game! Me and my brother have spent countless hours wasting away in front of the telly playing this game and enjoying every minute. It's basically about two aliens that get stuck on earth and have to find pieces of their spaceship to get back to their planet. If you're one for the quality of the graphics and the latest technology, you may not like this game at first, but if you start to play it I assure that you'll like it. This game is definatly funner if you play it with a partner, and this is one of the only game that a split screen dosn't subtract from the enjoyment of the game. I highly HIGHLY recommed this game to anyone! It's sure to make you have a fun time!

Quit exposing the pitifullness of yourself for the lack analytcal prowess within the concept of "groove and move." Grow your Weiner through the ranks to Lord of Funk, and layout trademark skidmarks of your powerful knowledge upon the green grass of planet Earth. Wit funk so sweetly stank it will make your boogers run South for the winter and drive the maggots from your brain. Try to play the basslines yourself and your fingers will hurt and smell like a long night of love. This training becomes necessary, however, because wiffout proper education, the boogieman will rip your face off, moles will shake you down for your SantaClaus bestowals, mailboxes will rise up to feast upon your third leg, or perhaps your pants will fall down in front of a Hula-Girl. Such ricoculosity will demand shouts of "what you means" at your poor television set, unless you pay the solid wisdom of the Galatic repository to identify boom-boxes and slingshots for a mere $2 a pop. Whence this fortune originates lies deeply concealed in the fruit of the carrot, and is not made for even a Rapmaster to contemplate... however, with this knowledge you may go forth and bludgeon Dental Malpracticionators, Geekus Dorkia, and hordes of Satanic fatbodies whilst they slither and slather helplessly to the beautiful funky -all about the ol' style- beats.
Don't go back to Funkotron. This is a word of warning: Funkotron is full of a Panic, and is not worth your troubles once you commandeer Earf. Instead, fly your ship down to level 0 and live out your lives in the hot tub with Hula Babies, drinking lemonade and eating imported foods. Word to the (extremely wise): any earthling opened at the bottom of the world is a chaste polynesian long black haired booty shakin lover of Dufusses, Homies and the alien like.
Toejam and Earl III is all about love, so go for it by all means. Just remember to ground you self firmly in the Relaxed Atmosphere of this Genesistical Perfection.
If this review wasn't helpful to you, you never knew -and you'll probably end up as undignified roadkill of a phantom Ice Cream Truck.
