Hands up who wants to see Yahtzee's take on this? :p
No challenge... And I think it would just end up being 4 minutes of swearing.
Hmm, yes, but it would also end up being 4 minutes of very funny swearing: the Sonic Unleashed review was entirely bile, and that's one of his funniest recent ones.

Anyway, that's probably enough about Yahtzee: he seems to appear often enough on this forum without me contributing to the figure...

And I have only one thing to say about this game... WHY!?

Is Susan getting one of these "wikkle cutesy" lines in all the reviews now? :)
Its getting quite scary to be honest.
Tell me you don't think those iddy zombies are just totally adorable. Besides, Funk wrote the script, I just read it. I'm only responsible for the ickle bickle cutsies in my own reviews. ;)

Someone thought it up, some more people went along with it. If anything, I think Bayonetta is just a tad more "WHY!?" deserving than this. But that's just me.

Actually, I'm renting it from Gamefly right now out of curiosity. But we all know what that did to the cat...poor kitty. Porn is free on the internet (well, not all of it), but I tend to enjoy the occasional campy fun game. Sadly, this game is not the next Earth Defense Force 2017...It not terrible, but the difficulty is very inconsistent and I'm stuck on the boss of mission 7. If you want half-naked chicks and a good hack and slash, just buy Dynasty Warriors: Gundam and that resort island DOA game whose name eludes me. Next rental...X-Blades...A hack n' slash with a G-String...*sigh* nothing good to rent that I didn't already buy...

I own the 360 version of Onechanbara, and Im stuck at the end of level 7. I mainly play for stress relief, its fun to sit back and play a somewhat mindless game when you need to unwind.

Holy crap, they made a game for me. There are few things that I like more in life that zombies and scantily clad women? well? scantily clad women covered in blood? and Silent Hill I guess but that?s a different topic. It?s too bad that the game seems so simple because it seems like the sort of thing I would enjoy. Well actually every once and a while I still enjoy mindlessly killing zombies for an hour or two so who knows, I might still have to pick this up. I loved BloodRain and this couldn?t be much worse? Right?

Try it. It has its pros and cons...I actually played it for 6 hours since yesterday.

Will do, thanx. I figure if you can play it for 6 out of 24 hours it?s got to have some merit.

They have a minigame during loading screen? I thought some backwater company somehow managed to copyright that idea. Maybe the company who made this game is that particular backwater company in question.

As for the game, it doesn't look fun, even if I shut of my brain. I can just play some simple 8-bit or 16-bit game for that.
