    Default Deadly Premonition

    how is it no one has made a thread on this yet? lol impossible


    Graphics...lets be serious, 1st generation low budget ps2 graphics at BEST

    Sound design? basically 3 songs looping over and over again and always syncing up at the wierdest times taking you out of the story, sound often cuts out during dialog and volume levels can change without notice

    game mechanics? dated, barely functional on the ps1 and completely unforgivable by todays standards

    controls...UNPLAYABLE, plays like a game that was originally designed on the dreamcast then ported over but controls were left intact



    all that being said, I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME!!! lol this game has some magical pact with the devil, it delivers charm in spades, this falls into the so bad its good then bad but back to good again category lol, seriously for a budget title i personally feel you get more than your moneys worth

    anyone else play this???

    Always do advanced search and search titles only. There's one that can be done through Google for stuff that has words three letters or less, hopefully someone posts this way once again because I don't remember.

    Ok, I bit. It's only $16 on Amazon, and I had read previously through the other thread on this game when that thread was active. After clicking on MegaDSKirby's link, I had to buy it.

    You totally should, especially if you feel like playing Resident Evil, GTA, Shenmue, or Sobokan. Or if you don't feel like watching Twin Peaks but want to bask in its glory anyway.

    I've been buying all the ten dollar copies I run into and giving them to friends. Not a single one has "gotten" it, though. This makes me sad.

    Oh yeah: Giantbomb.com has a video play-through of the ENTIRE FUCKING GAME. It's in the Endurance Run section, and it's very very funny. Highly recommended.

    Could be they don't see spectacular graphics or it isn't like "Black Ops".

    Not trying to piss anyone off, but this is what I notice when people who don't like it do. Instead of giving it a chance, they automatically say it sucks becuase of the most trivial of things, mainly that listed before.

    If they only gave it a chance, they would have noticed a great game.

    I don't know how fair of a statement that is. It's clearly a niche title with limited appeal. I think I could get into it, but I'm not going to insult those who can't.

    PS3 version is called Red Seeds Profile. Only released in Japan and Asia but has English dialogue in all regions. If anyone is interested and don't own a 360, you may as well put $50 in your "to purchase 360 later" pile and then buy the 360 version later or else you'll be paying an overpriced amount for the PS3 game.

    $50? Hardly, it's been $20 since it's release, if not cheaper.

    The 360 version is less than $20. The PS3 version will cost you $50 or more. I was saying you may as well put that $50 into buying a 360 so you can then get the 360 version of the game.

    I've been hearing about this game forever. I really should pick it up.

    I did eventually finish the game long ago and I throughly enjoyed the hell out of it. Yeah, it lacks some polish but who cares? This game has charm in spades.

    This is definitely one of the best cult games I've ever played (along with "Stubbs the Zombie", "Raze's Hell", and a few others that I can't immediately recall right now). And, if you're a big fan of "Twin Peaks" (and David Lynch in general), you really need to get this game.

    This is essentially "Twin Peaks: The Video Game" but with a different cast of characters.

    I though about writing a guide for this game but somebody else beat me to the punch and did a pretty good job of it. The only thing I could think of to improve on that was add a list of "Twin Peaks" references.

    Besides, I am in the middle of my big "Hitman" writing project (all four games - plus preparations for the next installment (tentatively called "Absolution")) and getting ready for "The Darkness II" (I did a guide for the first game) so my plate was kind of full to begin with.

    And, like with most people in this thread, I am looking forward to a sequel. Don't you agree, Zach?.....
    The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "save us!"......and I'll look down, and whisper "no."

    Sequel? Maybe. Prequel? fuck yes. Running around, being FBI, all exploration and investigation and talkin about movies and punk rock, forget the zombie shooting.

    i just finished deadly premonition and all i have to say is




    HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!



    lol the 2nd half of the game had probably the most consecutive back to back ?WTF?!? moments in video game history


    up until the very end i really loved the game but felt it was just slightly overrated & destructoids perfect 10 i felt were more 4 shock value, but upon beating this shit.....GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY

    this game should have been GOTY, but obviously i understand why it wasn't even a nominee

    as far as overall game experiences go,

    deadly premonition > Alan wake
    deadly premonition ? Heavy Rain

    and both of those games were perfect 10s to me

    I just got this game today, and I didn't think I would like it this much. It has an almost MST3K vibe going about it. I've had several moments where I laughed out loud.

    Haven't gotten that far but the scene with the hotel owner at breakfast is hilarious with the inappropriately loud music.
