Limited Run Games has brought back a "classic" CD-ROM game from the depths of retro obscurity as they have released Plumbers Don't Wear Ties: Definitive Edition. Known for being an exceptionally bad game, the development team decided it wasn't just enough to make an enhanced version of the original; instead, they have updated and enhanced the original 3DO game for a modern audience so you can… "enjoy" what is considered to be one of the worst video games ever created. You can currently get the game on all three major consoles, while the Steam edition will be released at a later date.
