About Me
Try to contain your excitement- I'm about to list my consoles!

-PC (Not strictly a console but the best gaming platform nonetheless)
-PS3 (Until it gets some games, not much playtime on this)
-Wii (Finally fixed, but I still never play the damn thing)
-DS (Got it on day one, and I still love it.)
-GameCube (Melee is the best fighting game ever, and Wind Waker is the best Zelda game ever)
-PS2 (Not much to say really. Who doesn't own one of these?)
-PS1 (Great memories of this console)
-N64 (Better memories of this one)

If your head hasn't exploded already, here's some more exciting stuff- games I'm currently playing!

-Left 4 Dead
-Team Fortress 2
-Rock Band

I'm a writer at Ripten, so go there and comment dat shit, yo.

Madworld: Okami with chainsaws
greeneggsnsam | 12:00 PM on 05.15.2008 9 comments




Platinum games, a studio consisting of old Clover developers (Okami, Viewtiful Joe)), have announced "Madworld", a stylistic kill-'em-up for the Wii. I assume anyone reading this can go look up the game for themselves, but in short summary, the game is completely Black and White, with only blood in colour. You'd better be a fan of red if you're getting this game, as you're going to see a lot of it. The game features a large amount of incredibly brutal killings, largely down to the fact that the protagonist has a chainsaw instead of a right hand. Here's a video, probably soon to be taken down by Sega, as they have done with all the other ones:

The game itself looks like a brilliantly fresh new Wii game, and by fresh I mean new and exciting, not electric scales for £60. It makes me glad that the Wii is having a great cult game growth, with No More Heroes, Okami, and now this. Granted, they are all cel-shaded and made pretty much by the same people, but someone's got to get the ball rolling, right? I really hope more games like this that will definitely attract the hardcore gamers will come out on the Wii.

It is love...and the logo works. IGN has a two page article on the game.

Hopefully if it is all B&W, it'll be done well, like in Movies (Sin City, etc).

Awesome! Clover was one of my favorite developers. I've been waiting for news on the team's next project. Thanks!

@Reaprar
at least it's more colorful then 90% of games running on unreal engine these days.

@Kapkomi:

I came so close to making that joke in my post, but I decided against it.

Clover made some really good games and this looks promising. I'll have to keep an eye on this one.
