It's fan service mixed with two mini-games - the memory game, and the puzzle game.

At retail, it can't hold a candle to other items on GOG. There are just too many good to downright excellent games available on here for 10 or less.

But, all that being said, I am still interested in what they intend to put out next. Would probably be somewhat less supportive if I didn't like the idea of incredibly prudish people getting hung up on nudity and sexuality while happily blowing people's heads off.

Well i guess there are actually people willing to buy better looking dog turd ;)

Especially when it comes to Fahrenheit. Toxic waste in a slightly prettier wrapper still makes your skin rot off if you touch it.


-laughs- I've gifted the original to people when I'm in a mean but playful mood, just to inflict it on them.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing agains the whole eye candy and fan service stuff, I just wish they would admit it and stop pretending it is something deeper. I also wish it was more equal, as gaming is still quite sexist and misogynistic, despite that they say 50% of gamers are now women. I do wish some games would stop doing eye candy when it doesn't fit with the game style, like the new Metal Gear game, but I guess that is gaming these days. I also find it funny how people will be against some cleavage or nudity, but they are fine with mass death.
Every time I see that game I think of you. :-)

I will have to give it a play sometime, just to see how bad it really is. I am not even sure why I have it, probably before I heard how bad it is.

But wasn't that the point of the game? :P

Hm...Two-thirds of the game of the game are good but the rest ruins it....

Are there any GOG games that are so bad you have to play them, as opposed to just plain bad?

Well I was just talking about Fahrenheit and Huniepop. :-)

How about you?

(There could be more, but I am not the best mentally tonight so none that come to mind at the moment.)

Agreed, that's pretty bad. "Our nudity has such a deeper level of blah blah blah." No it doesn't, you're just scared to commit to what you like.

I wish someone would put out a large game with more male eye-candy, just to even things up while making it amusingly uncomfortable for those so insecure they can't handle even the sight without losing their mind.

My persona is now intertwined with a pile of pretentious, broken garbage concocted by a deluded hack. Yay me.

Do you like nonsense? Do you like quick-time events? Do you like ridiculous and absurd health mechanics? Do you like awful stealth sections? Do you like having the feeling that the writer suffered a large stroke during development, but was allowed to keep going anyway? Do you like sex scenes that happen for no reason involving a person and a walking corpse? If so, then Fahrenheit will give you what you crave!

It was your Fahrenheit, Huniepop conversation that got me thinking, and I can't place any right now. Maybe the Bloodrayne's....

I think that is why I can enjoy some b-movies more than big hollywood movies. B-movies don't pretend to be anything other than silly fun, but the hollywood ones always pretend to be something deep and meaningful, when most of the time it is crap.

That game would be fun, especially seeing the guys reactions when they defend the same games but with women eye candy in them.

Hmmm. I can tolerate nonsense sometimes. I hate quick-time events most of the time. Not a big fan of absurd health mechanics, or awful stealth. I hate sex scenes for no reason, that always annoys me, especially in good games that could have told the story without the compulsory nudity or sex scene that does not seem natural or is just thrown in your face. I mean I get it, who doesn't like eye candy, but I get a game for a game, not for eye candy. To be honest, I want to try Fahrenheit just to see how bad it is. I doubt I would play much of it before stopping. I think there is only one game on GOG so far that I just stopped playing as I did not really like the game and that was Mousecraft.

The ones for that would be bad games with a history to them. Bad indie games are so easy to find these days that there's no weight to them.
It's like Slender. You played it, and it was shit. I knew that would happen. It's garbage based on internet crap, so that was pretty much guaranteed. Will it matter years from now? Course not, it'll just be another sliver of filth related to stupidity that only mattered to idiots.

Master of Orion 3, Leisure Suit Larry Magna Cum Laude, Ultima 9. These games are fun because they signify the death of something people once loved. There's always an appeal to watching something good go off the rails as hard as possible.
Anomaly Defenders would also apply, but to a lesser extent because the series didn't have the weight. It just demonstrates the mutilation of a novel idea.

Then you've got your overblown, overhyped shitpiles like Daikatana and Fahrenheit. Games that blew so much smoke up people's asses it wasn't even funny, only to fail utterly in the end.

You can also go with titles like Earthworm Jim 3D or Simon the Sorcerer 3D, where the developers tried for the next big thing, only to turn what they had that was good into garbage for the sake of visual presentation.

I can't remember which one it was, but one of the Bloodrayne games has some very comical boob technology where the woman's boobs just bounce for no reason. I thought it was a glitch at first, but nope, part of the game. :-)

I'm actually sort of tempted to get Fahrenheit just to see it explode. Somehow the fact that everyone's saying it's terrible kind of makes me want to try it. :P

As for Spectre: I saw it a week ago or so and quite enjoyed it, it was a good film.

Evidently, part of being a vampire is having your breasts constantly assaulted by their own miniature gravity fields at all times. Who knew?

That's what I'm talking about! :-)
