Namco inexplicably revives BurgerTime

I'm pretty much appalled that Namco would even bother with creating the game. It wasn't even passable on the NES when I first played it. I remember my brother and I received the game from our uncle many, many years ago as a gag gift. He was the sort of uncle that loved (and probably still loves) Monty Python and Ren & Stimpy.

Anyway, you basically run up and down some Donkey Kong style ladders to knock down burger ingredients and create cheeseburgers. Oh, and some non-burger ingredients will chase you around. Now they've reproduced the game in 3D for your computer, of all things. I could see this as some silly console marketplace download, but a full fledged computer game? No.

Be sure to check out JC Fletcher's article on Joystiq. And if you're truly daring, here's a one-hour trial of the game itself. I won't be trying it.
