Deadly Premonition! The WTF of the Year?

[LaughingMAN.S9]

how is it no one has made a thread on this yet? lol impossible


Graphics...lets be serious, 1st generation low budget ps2 graphics at BEST

Sound design? basically 3 songs looping over and over again and always syncing up at the wierdest times taking you out of the story, sound often cuts out during dialog and volume levels can change without notice

game mechanics? dated, barely functional on the ps1 and completely unforgivable by todays standards

controls...UNPLAYABLE, plays like a game that was originally designed on the dreamcast then ported over but controls were left intact



all that being said, I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME!!! lol this game has some magical pact with the devil, it delivers charm in spades, this falls into the so bad its good then bad but back to good again category lol, seriously for a budget title i personally feel you get more than your moneys worth

anyone else play this???

Always do advanced search and search titles only. There's one that can be done through Google for stuff that has words three letters or less, hopefully someone posts this way once again because I don't remember.

The game is fantastic,
I would never jest.
Play the game today,
as it's one of the best!

So says, Mr. Stewart.

Ok, I bit. It's only $16 on Amazon, and I had read previously through the other thread on this game when that thread was active. After clicking on MegaDSKirby's link, I had to buy it.

Merged.

I should probably play my copy some day...

You totally should, especially if you feel like playing Resident Evil, GTA, Shenmue, or Sobokan. Or if you don't feel like watching Twin Peaks but want to bask in its glory anyway.

I've been buying all the ten dollar copies I run into and giving them to friends. Not a single one has "gotten" it, though. This makes me sad.

Oh yeah: Giantbomb.com has a video play-through of the ENTIRE FUCKING GAME. It's in the Endurance Run section, and it's very very funny. Highly recommended.

Could be they don't see spectacular graphics or it isn't like "Black Ops".

Not trying to piss anyone off, but this is what I notice when people who don't like it do. Instead of giving it a chance, they automatically say it sucks becuase of the most trivial of things, mainly that listed before.

If they only gave it a chance, they would have noticed a great game.

I don't know how fair of a statement that is. It's clearly a niche title with limited appeal. I think I could get into it, but I'm not going to insult those who can't.

I never had any interest in this game at all until I read this (which may OK be from 2011, but whatever).
