Gamervision's Luke writes, "I didn’t know very much about Naughty Bear before the game’s release a few weeks ago. I had seen one or two trailers that piqued my interest, and even though I wouldn’t say I was eagerly looking forward to the day the game came out, but the way the game was marketed made Naughty Bear look like something I might be into. Unfortunately, after playing the game for a few monotonously boring hours, Naughty Bear revealed itself to be nothing more than a mediocre attempt, with very little in the way of enjoyment."
Nick writes: "At its launch, Naughty Bear was seemingly overshadowed by E3 a couple of weeks prior. Major releases like Fallout: New Vegas and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty grabbed gamers’ attention months prior, whereas Naughty Bear, comparable to its terrible stealth mechanics, released on a whimper. The overwhelming influx of poor reviews didn’t help its case either. Yet, a decade later and here I am - writing about a game that continues to serve as a stress reliever or a rainy day substitute. That has to count for something, as I can’t say the same for most triple-A releases."
TheLateNightGamer: I’d assume that most gamers have at least heard of Naughty Bear. Unfortunately, it’s probably from people putting it on their list of terrible games. I’ll admit, this wasn’t a game that I played so much my neighbors thought I was dead. It’s not perfect, sure. But it deserves a lot more credit than most people give it.
