Quantcast



Ignition has released another trailer for its upcoming "it'll probably be so bad it's good" third-person horror title, Deadly Premonition, and it certainly delivers.

By "delivers" I mean ridiculous dialogue, hilarious animation (that doesn't match the dialogue), and then... something happens at the end that's all like "Seriously?" The trailer introduces us to Special Agent Francis York Morgan, the cigarette smoking FBI agent who talks a a mysterious contact called "Zach" that no one ever sees. Twin Peaks much?

Deadly Premonition hits shelves for Xbox 360 on February 23, and did I mention it's only $19.99?

This had better only be 20 bucks. Watching this video just made me hate my life a little more. I REALLY hope the horribleness is intentional.

I'm buying this immediately for Police brand cigarettes and cheesey scripted car crashes.

Well, if we're lucky, the character won't be back after that car crash.
At least PS3 users will be spared this game.

Yeah, right, PS3 owners wish they could have this game.

I'm with Stevil, this is gonna be awesome. Maybe awesome in a B-movie way, but still awesome.

that was a terrible trailer. not sure why so many people watched that trailer and decided this game was going to be "so bad it's good" i did not get that at all from what I just saw. the other trailers are much better, well, not as terrible. the $20 price tag will probably sucker a decent number of people into buying this game. i dont mind the bad graphics but you get what you pay for in life and i doubt this game will even be playable, the controls will probably be unbearable. but who knows, it would be nice if deadly premonition was fun, not enough horror-survival these days so i have a little hope for this title but am trying to be realistic

I love the jazz music that sounds like dolphins crying. And then the hot jazz over the "read a bunch of text" part.
