I guess people who enjoyed this terrible game will be extra happy

KingOfArcadia4433d ago

Are you extra happy, Zach? I think I am, but it looks like NYC_Gamer doesn't like us much. Maybe he just needs a cup of coffee?

This game was a spectacle of beauty. Everything was perfect. I laughed, I cried, I grew angry with disgust and somehow didn't regret a single moment of the sheer work of art this game truly is. How dare you spit your hatred on it. Never have I before laughed-my-ass-off, nor have I rolling-on-floor-laughing, and, in truth, you'd never see me rolling-on-floor in addition to laughing-my-ass-off--until this beautiful piece of a game. This game truly defined comedy in the spectrum of gaming as an experience.

How dare you sir.
How DARE you.

Mr NYC_Gamer,

You seem to have an odd taste in games
Especially if you find D.P. to be lame.

...So says Mr. Stewart.

One of the overrated games this generation. I've seen if played through twice (Endurance Run) and it's such a terrible game.

KwietStorm_BLM4433d ago (Edited 4433d ago )

Overrated? lol really? I thought people just enjoyed how bad it was.

Pozzle4433d ago

Exactly. It's like watching a really bad horror movie like Troll 2 or Child's Play 3. You know they aren't going to win any awards, but they're so ridiculous that they're still fun to watch.

Skateboard4433d ago

I liked it and want a sequel.

Deadly Premonition | Games To Play Before You Die

Deadly Premonition is a weird, weird cocktail that doesn't go down smooth for everyone, but it's still absolutely worth sampling.

It’s sooooo janky but the story is so good and the agent is so quirky I loved it thouroughly, the story is that good that you can actually make it through all of its jankiness and issues .
It’s a diamond in the rough and rough is saying lighly.
This game deserves a remake out of any game I can think of .
If they fixed the combat ,driving and movement this would be one of my favorite games all time and it already is in a way.

The first time I turned on my flashlight was one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a game. His suit just sort of lights up. There's no physical flashlight in his hand--hilarious. It's also the only game I've played to truly capture the delightfull quirkiness of Twin Peaks. I'm with you on how much I like this game. Despite all of its flaws, it's a genuinely fun experience. "My coffee warned me about it," is probably my favorite line of all time in any video game.

I still haven't played the sequel, but I will some day.

I enjoyed this back during ps3 days. I'd buy it again if they re released it fixed up a little. I had fun with it.

ok I believe that Deadly Premonition 2 scene described in the article, takes the cake! Although one could argue that there are so many memorable ridiculous moments in this game.

Wish the F.E.A.R. franchise would get resurrected.

COG Considers: Why Are There So Many Games About Killers With Split Personalities?

This week on COG Considers, we tackle one of the most tired and unpleasant tropes in horror games: why games--and every other pop culture avenue--are so determined to paint people with Dissociative Identity Disorder as murderers.

Surprised killer7 isn't mentioned. This was the central premise of that game

KDblack1287d ago

Killer7 was mentioned, but only for one sentence because it's the central premise of the game. There wasn't really a need to go into detail.

gamerben1287d ago

Oh woops didn't catch it. Sorry mang

mastershredder1288d ago

Are they? You are fixed on Japanese games that are anime based/fashioned. Perhaps if you were not playing games that are similar to the animes that inspired them you would have more/different experiences.

When Cliche and Troupes are the building blocks, you can’t expect much. Just like you cannot expect good case study when the tester/observer has practically no variance in test subjects.

Sooooo many horror games out there... you really gotta explore some more.

KDblack1287d ago

I am aware! But games like Outlast or Remothered aren't really doing anything different, either--the most you could say is that Outlast hammers in that not all mental patients are dangerous. Just some of them. It really isn't just anime-inspired games that are doing this, even if you're counting Deadly Premonition among them. Bendy and the Ink Machine did it with Alice Angel, Krieg from the Borderlands games is this but played for laughs, and Dog/God from Fallout: New Vegas' Dead Money DLC is another example of both murder and weird, unrealistically rapid closure. This article was inspired after seeing one too many indie games on Steam with the premise 'discover the inner world of this tormented killer with DID.' Trust me when I say I'm exploring all kinds of horror games, and even outside those boundaries, because this is a really wide-reaching pattern.

That said, if you have any recs for more interesting/less stereotypical usage of characters with DID, hit me up.
