[quote name='bmulligan']Is that Danny Bono-douchey doing the voice over? Please tell me this isn't part of the game. If I have to listen to that stupid play-by-play during the actual game I might actually kill someone with a chainsaw.[/quote]
Actually, it probably is part of the game...I posted this in the other thread(This game was a big feature in the current Nintendo Power)
[quote name='m3talst0rm']Got my nintendo power yesterday and Mad World was on the cover with a six page article inside. Interesting info:
*Protagonist name is Jack
*Forced to participate in a Lethal game show known as Death Watch
*Objective is to score points by dispatching your opponents in the most entertaining way possible.
*Game is being developed primarily for a Western audience
*Violence in game is to be Over-the-top and non-realistic = funny
*Found objects=eliminate opponents (i.e. caution sign)
*Chainsaw arm= eliminate opponents (press B button for finishing move!)
*Purchase additional weapons from armories scattered throughout Death Watch
*Example: Pair of long Daggers~lift guy up with them and remove legs, knock opponent into air and remove all four limbs, and excising an opponent's spine.
*"Don't expect any moving crate puzzles or missions that send you rummaging for keys."
*Nishikawa: "we wanted to create a game that would allow players to have a lot of fun in short chunks."
*Jack will have the opportunity to participate in hilariously gruesome minigames called Bloodbath Challenges: MANDARTS and Death Press
*Mandarts: gigantic dartboard rises from street and Jack picks up a baseball bat and starts knocking foes toward it. Closer they get to target = more points
*Death Press: hurl as many enemies as possible under large spike-covered hydraulic press within a given time limit
*"We're making all of the boss characters very unique so that when players see them, each one will be etched in their minds forever"
*"the thought of taking Sin City into 3-D and letting the player move around it seemed very exciting."
*harsh rock soundtrack that gets you in the mood to wreak havoc
*keeping with the game show motif, the action will also be accompanied by color commentary.
I just skimmed the article, so if I run across any more information, I'll post it.[/quote]
