Quantcast



And with that, we have a new "best ever song to be played over videogame end credits." The crown goes to Rogue Warrior, which apparently exists. I was under the impression it was still stuck in development hell, but I'm told the game hit store shelves today. You could have fooled me, honestly.

Much love goes out to GiantBomb and Nerdist for finding what has to be one of the very few reasons to play Rogue Warrior. Since this treasure of a song is now up on YouTube, we don't even have to do that.

Slip into something comfortable, dim the lights, get your fireplace going, and hit that play button.

Awesomely weird.

I was amazed to see this game pop up on Steam for preorder a couple weeks ago when there was no media presence for it at all, not even a gameplay video ANYWHERE other than cam footage on youtube. I was even more surprised to see it launch today without anything new in that regard either.

I tend to buy mediocre shooters because I love the genre so much but COME ON, I need a little something to go on here Rebellion.

I was at blockbuster the other day, and the display case for the game was a post it note with an angry stick figure and the game's title and release date. It was awesome.

That was amazing. This is exactly what would have happened if Barry Manilow joined the Marine Corps before starting his singing career. Its smooth

Excalipoor is correct. God Hand remains king of the outro in my eyes.

Wow shame I never got this far in the game. As I stopped playing after thirty seconds.
@Stinging Velvet. Go on this. It is the worst game Ive played this decade. Technically, story wise, its not even fun to play with the stiff controls.They said nothing for a reason it deserves a 1/10 and on destructoid's scale should be N/A as it deserves no score.`

I'm sorry, but NOTHING beats 'Splosion Man's ending. Seriously, my mind was BLOWN.

Sorry, but God Hand's still really is better. That's hilarious though.

I feel so bad for Bethsoft. Maybe they should stop outsourcing.
I'd really just like to see it in action, honestly. It's a little rude there's no preview. C'mon Rebellion, did you really fuck up that bad?...

...yeah, you probably did.

God Hand's lyrics "Dragon kick your ass into the Milky Way" are the best lyrics of all time. OF ALL TIME.

When talking about how Mickey Rourke's career comeback exploded on people's faces, that song should be the main bullet point.

Game has been 10% off on Steam for weeks now.

I'm waiting for reviews before I even consider getting the game. Especially since Steam and Amazon.com bled my wallet dry over the Black Friday weekend with a crap-load of games for next to nothing.

I can see how you'd go with 'Splosion Man or God Hand over this. But for me, there's no topping Mickey Rourke rapping.

So they just took his dialog from the game and made a techno remix out of it? As in, what Dtoiders do to Podtoid on a weekly basis?
