A very mis-understood classic
GameplayThe plot of PO'ed revolves around a chef whose ship has crash-landed on an alien world, from which it is the players task to escape. Using primitive weapons such as a frying pan and a drill, the player must advance through 26 levels filled with alien 'monsters'. A jetpack is also available to help facilitate the player's exploration of levels.This game features characteristics similar to such classic computer games as Doom and Quake. GraphicsWhen PO'ed was released in 1995, the graphics were taxing on the 3DO hardware. The graphics rendered real polygons instead of the Raycasting engine of games like Doom or Duke Nukem. Though, the other graphics like enemies and items were still sprites. On the 3DO, only the walls had textures, like the Doom version for the SNES. Yet, the graphics were smooth and more fluid than the Doom version on this system. The graphics were improved on the PlayStation re-release in 1996. HumourOne of the main draws of PO'ed is the humour of the game's premise. Many of the enemies are designed to produce a laugh from the player purely by what they are. Some of the weapons could be considered humorous and unconventional, and the plotline is unusual in its basic content

PO'ed Is Awesome!
Wow, not many reviews for this game. Ok so PO'ed is a pretty fun classic game, its got some humor, intense action, and thrilling levels. The enemies are...well...very interesting, being part of the humor in the game. The gameplay and graphics are like a computer game from the 90's but still great. It's a first person alien shooter, really fun game in my opinion, can't say much more because I haven't played it in many years, just got it back today and have started playing it. But if you like old action games, this one will be great for you.

What the hell was I thinking?
Okay, I'll admit that I bought this game because it was rated "M", but come on, I was 11 at the time!But that's besides the point. The point is that this game is horrible! Confusing levels, bad graphics (for the time period), and just plain BORING. It was fun at first hitting those ass monsters with a frying pan but that got boring within five minutes or so, plus the graphics gave me a major head ache!The gameplay is like your standard old FPS game, but this time you can fly! Unfortunately, the controls for the jet pack suck major b-b-b-balls!To make this crappy reviw short: Don't waste any money on this pile of trash! Who cares if it was made in 1995? It sucks!Go play your Fallout 3, Fable 2, MW2...WoW or whatever...- Mike G
