Daikatana on Gametap Septemeber 6th
Deus \| 2:28 PM on 08.30.2007	7 comments

I was browsing upcoming games on Gametap the other day and I noticed something strange. Very strange. It looked as though one of the most critically panned and universally despised games of all time was going to be made available for download to the loyal subscribers of Gametap. Shocked and appalled, I checked on the Gametap website and it's true. John Romero's epic failure will soon be up for all to play. I can't really say much more about this without being overwhelmed by the urge to cancel my Gametap subscription, but with Sam and Max: Season 2 coming out, that's not a good idea.

I'd like to apologize for the terrible editing job on the picture. I only have paint and I fail at graphic design. Sorry. Also, sorry if this has already been posted and everyone knows about it.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Haha! Oh man. I'm both repulsed and amused this is coming to Gametap.

And no worries about the edit. It more then gets the point across. :)

I wish I'd known about this when I was at PAX. I could have grabbed one of the guys running the GameTap booth and asked them, "WHY??"

Oh, please tell me it will be one of those free to play games. I've been making fun of that fucking game for years, but I've never actually played it.

I know it's probably not good to WANT to play Daikatana......but I like to personally experience something before I hate it.

I'm so gonna download it.

@ tsunamikitsune

I don't think you need to experience anything with an sidekick character named "Superfly Johnson" to hate it.

Haha, I'm so getting trashed and playing this just to laugh.
