So I decided to rent Imagine: Babyz Fashion

Dudebro, My Shit is Fucked Up So I Got to Shoot/Slice You II: It's Straight-Up Dawg Time, is that an Activision title?

 

[Dead Prince]

Since we're doing detective GAF - I don't have a black DS, but are they typically black on the outside and grey on the inside? If not, does the dude have two DSes?

Silver DS phat.

That's a game title I can get behind.

Million seller on title alone.

Yes. That's what the DS Phat looks like. I have one sitting on my desk right now.

You are some sort of parental-caretaker-type who has to constantly appease the baby and ensure its safety, and of course, guide its way to fashion stardom. I'm only thirty minutes in and I went into this completely blind, so I'm still caretaking on day one. Caretaking is done through a combination of mini-games and Sims-style management, and it seems you pass a day by filling four hearts by doing things that the baby wants you to do.

Also, your baby is sartorially aware, and you have to ensure it is dressed in accordance to its very specific tastes.

:lol :lol :lol

Fuck.

The thread backfire backfired :lol

Dudebro, My Shit is Fucked Up So I Got to Shoot/Slice You II: It's Straight-Up Dawg Time

Because it’s just that good. :lol

Anyone care to take a crack at naming the antitheses to this title?

 

[Son of Godzilla]

You know, after that recent Ubi shitstorm I went looking for footage of a Petz game, and honest to blog it seemed like a rather competent Nintendogs ripoff. I mean, Nintendo hasn't updated that hollow formula in what, five years? A new one with Crazy Monkeys is hardly the biggest crime unto Nuggin.

tears are flowing down my face. lol...sartorially aware babies...the dudebro title...it is just too good. thread saved.

 

[NYCrooner]

So much hurt in my gut right now. lmao!!!

This thread has reached brilliance. Can cuyahoga start doing a series where he rents shovelware and seriously reviews them using mature prose and witty commentary?

I would gladly donate towards the establishment of an entire website dedicated to such an idea.

 

[TwIsTeD]

so win

 

[Diseased Yak]

:lol I would buy a copy of Dudebro II for every system I own.

 

[Danthrax]

Hell, let's pay him to print a magazine about it. It's a much better idea than Kill Screen =P



[edit] P.S. Thank you for finally giving us gameplay impressions, cuyahoga :lol

 

[Scythesurge]

Dudebro game makes me think of Eat Lead. I think I'd rather play Dudebro though.

 

[Yeef]

Fantastic!

 

[Kyzer]

ROFL DUDEBRO

 

[neostapler]

came for the Babyz.....stayed for the Dudebro

 

[LiK]

could the OP be any more vague with his impressions?

 

[Jocchan]

Dudebro needs to happen.

 

[140.85]

:lol :lol :lol

The only thing that box needs is the Only On XBOX stamp.

Congratulations you may have just supplanted "bald space marines" and created the new shorthand for deriding hardcore mature titles.

 

[comedy bomb]

This thread has taken a fascinating turn. :lol

 

[firehawk12]

Jesus, that's what Rogue Warrior should have been called. :lol

 

[Jocchan]

:lol :lol :lol

No way, I need to play it on my Colecovision!

Oh gosh the byline is killing me. What does "dawg time" even mean? :lol

 

[wrowa]

Accusing someone of playing pirated games should be bannable. It's silly. Especially in this case where there was absolutely no evidence for it. Accusing people who've rented a game of pirating is actually the same as accusing people who use homebrew of pirating, if you ask me.

 

[cuyahoga]

This is so amazing. Thank you.

Are you directly or indirectly trying to reference Modern Warfare 2 here?

That's one of the games. I was also thinking Assassin's Creed 2, but I guess that's more stabbing.

This thread has reached brilliance. Can cuyahoga start doing a series where he rents shovelware and seriously reviews them using mature prose and witty commentary?

I'd love to do this. I do have a fear that some of these games are too buggy and unstable to enjoy--but most seem to not be incredibly risky, so I guess that minimizes the possibility of developers erring majorly. I wouldn't want my tone to turn to contemptuous because some developer is not the most technically competent.

I have tried to actually pursue this before.

Way too much work, but I've pitched this the "I tackle shovelware" to anyone I could and no one has taken me up on that.

Whether "dawg" a noun, adjective or verb is entirely up to you.

 

[Barrett2]

Dudebro needs to happen.

It's happening in my mind, and it's glorious. :lol

 

[lowlylowlycook]

Dudebro needs to happen.

Mods: please merge this thread with the "Gaf should make a game" thread.

 

[Neuromancer]

:lol :lol :lol

Can't wait for D:MSIFUSIGTS/SY3:IS-UDT2.

 

[Neuromancer]

HA I knew it!

 

[thetrin]

They'll probably just call it S.U.D.T 2, and drop the Dudebro name altogether.

 

[Haunted]

I thought he meant Army of Tutu

edit: Rogue Warrior, Medal of Honor or Gears of War 2 work as well. :lol

 

[Neuromancer]

Yeah but they'd probably sneak it onto the box somewhere anyway, just to keep the branding there for the easily confused.

 

[Danthrax]

Oh I just wanted to get in a cheap shot on Kill Screen, but a Web site dedicated to reviewing and satirically hyping up shovelware, using intelligent prose, would be great.

I agree with this. At first I thought people were joking so I played with it too, but it seems they weren't.

I understand buying a game perceived as trash warrants questioning the person who picked it up, but preemptively assuming piracy on no grounds here is silly.

I'm still annoyed with that stupid Jedi Knight bullshit.



...oh you meant that. right.

I don't know if anyone was being serious were they?

 

[Tim-E]

:lol :lol :lol

The funniest thing I've seen on GAF in some time.

 

[Gospel]

I thought the first poster was being factitious, then hivemind started quoting said post, being serious, and hoping for a banning.




Poster below me,


no. There are far funnier threads.

 

[clockpunk]

I hope this thread gets preserved in the Best of GAF section - it showcases precisely why this place is unique amongst its peers.

re: poster above: 'doh'. They're usually concluded by the time EuroGAFfers log on... :-/

 

[digita1alchemy]

I wish it could be straight-up dawg time, all the time.

 

[The Technomancer]

The new GAF meme? Methinks...
