Quantcast



MadWorld caresses that part of my brain that craves savage things. Sega’s Wii-exclusive title (set to hit retail mid-March) is all about slicing, sticking, and plunging baddies. The pen-and-ink visuals contrast beautifully with the bright crimson spurts that cascades out of victims upon physical contact. MadWorld could be that next blissful union between great visceral gameplay and gore that I’ve wanted since putting down Gears of War 2.

This trailer punctuates MadWorld’s flair with a good bit of humor. It features two sportscasters who recount the bloody exploits and highlight certain sections of the game. There isn’t much to be gleaned from the trailer that hasn’t already been covered by Hamza in his preview, but it’s a worth a watch for a laugh, and you can see the game in motion.

MadWorld makes me want to ejaculate blood.
Finally my Nintendo Wii will be plugged in for the first time since I beat Wario Land Shake It nearly half a year ago.

love it. reminds me of the fake tv show they made for death race (yes that jason statham movie with the cars), which makes me insanely happy.

Cool trailer, I'm really looking foward to this game. Sega is really doing Wii owners justice.

This trailer does nothing for me. I understand what they're trying to do here, but I'm just not buying it.

I just want to play it.

Cool trailer. I think it's a homage to movies like Death Race 2000.

I didn't realize the chainsaw was grafted to his arm Evil Dead style. Awesome.
