Ubisoft's Teen Actor Murder Simulator Due in June

[Canadian Briton]

is it going to feature DLC parody characters to keep up with current events?

 

[HK_01]

Sounds a lot like Manhunt to me. Probably not gonna be released in Germany and from what I take from the reading I don't care.

 

[StarStruckStrumpets]

Somewhat justifiable political shit storm in 3...2...

Yeah, for future reference, the two of us called it.

It still sounds interesting though.

 

[Swifteye]

Sounds boring though controversial. Wait why is this B-movie getting a game? Is it really that interesting?

 

[Yureina]

Sounds like Madworld to me. In any case, not something i'm going to go for. Mindless murder isnt my style.

 

[geldonyetich]

A novel solution for chav infestation.

 

[Jared]

I had never heard if this before today...it has caught my intrest!

DSomething novel lol

 

[Shamanic Rhythm]

Sounds real mature, Ubisoft. Most blatantly obvious attempt to court controversy ever.

 

[RaphaelsRedemption]

A PC release as well you say?

Coming soon from Ubisoft DRM dpt.: Multirom! You must have 2 phsyical discs in the drive at any given time to keep the game running. They must be stacked up, and for added safety, one must be inverted over the other. Also you must voodoo chant before a microphone to activate your copy of the game, each and every time you wish to play. The chant is randomly generated each time to a heavily encrypted and monthly updated algorithm, and the servers to which you must always be connected will not transmit data until every syllable has been uttered. If at any time 1 of the 2 discs stops rotating, the game will uninstall itself, along with any other Ubisoft game located in the registry of you and anyone on your homegroup.

Good premise for a game, but the public's outcry over Ubisoft DRM will make the PC version a tough sell, to say the least.

--This has been a satire by Robot--

I am in awe. This is, to the letter, what I have feared of Ubisoft and their DRM. Kudos to you, sir!

Re the actual game. Controversial, boring, bloody and probably going to be banned in my country, so I am switching game recognition off.

 

[Ekonk]

I think it is supposedly to be a game similar to the "The Ship".

Hey hey, the ship was pretty good. Murder who dunnit and all.

This intrigues me not as much, though.

 

[Cowabungaa]

So sort of like Battle Royal or something?

Ah well, I won't get it anyway. Got enough games for now. Still I wonder when we'll see the aforementioned political shitstorm about this.

 

[Snotnarok]

The worst part about this is it's Ubisoft,the garbage game developer who hates their customers with such spite they fuck them over with each game they put out on PC. Fuck you Ubisoft, remove your crappy customer hating DRM and maybe I'll give your games another chance.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

Wait...what?

This is messed up on six levels...

I'm going to go preorder.

This, a million times this.

 

[Daniel_Rosamilia]

I hope it's set in an 80's environment, just for the simple fact that I can hear Rick Astley singing, and it WON'T be an irritating rick-roll. Oh, and if he's a killable character, even better!

 

[Sebenko]

Wow, that sounds shit. And the Ubisoft DRM means that even if it was the best game ever, I wouldn't buy it.

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

This actually sounds like an interesting premise for an adventure game, but those things are 'old' and 'boring' nowadays so it'll probably be a generic top down shooter or something.

 

[V8 Ninja]

Great! A perfect simulator of the Ubisoft, EA, and Activision video game wars. =P

 

[are.you.the.god.its.me.vader]

Phowrrr.. I want this game, pleeease be good

 

[Le_Lisra]

Sounds like fun to me. Looking forward to play it in 2014, when I get a new PC.^^
