What is AP25?


lol where have you been living?!


lol, yeah I recently bought a cheap original 360 from a guy so I could play Alan Wake and Red Dead Redemption. I mainly just game on the PC and don't follow the console scene. All I know is I put in a wave boot disc and all my "backups" work. =D

Gfx are ok (nothing special) with clearly visible horrible jaggies.

Blood & gore is awesome, I've never seen so much of it in any game. Character model gets damaged (like in Wolverine) with bones and shit protruding thru flesh.

Checkpoint quick load times (after death for example) take up to one minute = fail!! And that's playing from HDD btw.

Soundtrack = awesome. The dream of a disturbed teenager.

Now as to the game itself - let's speak frankly. It appeals to our lowest guilty pleasures - to rip flesh apart splattering blood while listening to hardcore alternative music. Good solution for some catharsis after a crappy day at the office, but who wants to tear up monsters? People, guys. Real people. That's why Postal was a success and that's exactly why I'm skipping this one - I don't want to mindlessly rip monsters apart.

I'll replay God of War's or Castlevania if I feel the need for the genre.

yay!!

I woke up, opened my eyes and there it was.
Splatterhouse Smile

I have ONE disc left... and they are not verbs they are cheap HP's.
So far off that spindle ( 10 ) only one has failed, but with my luck i know something will go wrong when i put in the last disc and burn it Razz

Fingers Crossed Razz

*EDIT*

About the included Splatterhouse originals.
Don't you have to unlock them by beating the game?

Just unlocked the first Splatterhouse game Smile
Haven't played it yet, will do so soon.

I kinda like the game, yeah it's not an instant classic, it's not even the best beat em up.

But it's seriously not as bad as some early people said, it's an good solid 7 in my book, mindless action, loads of sarcasm and well the story?
It's just an 80's horror flick, where you are doing the horror Smile

so what can i say , game is a bloody mess and its fun ,you get all 3 originals by completing chapters [1 ,4 and 8] , game maps are un-linear [adds replay ability], has three endings [depending on your mask , how many photos did you collected , how many gramophones/journals did you collect and what path did you take on your map]...oh and the music FITS PERFECTLY [Battling Doll Boss and you hear "Mastodon - Blood And Thunder" and some heavy metal with words "Die Bitch Die" over and over again Laughing ]

but there are some things that make you go mad : originals are in well 4:3 , when you die you go to a check point that loads like i dunno FUCKING 2-3 minutes on HDD install but awesome 5 minutes on DVD LULZZZZZZ , yeah load times are horrible but the game is fun and addddddiiiiicccctiiive so much .... i finished it 4 times already , completed all arenas , collected all photos ...phew didn't knew one game could be so much addictive oh and yeah one thing left now complete those 3 originals Very Happy

Played for a bit. It's ok... I guess... but nothing memorable. The over-the-top blood and gore is nice, but it can't hold up an entire game. As it is, the load times are frustrating and unjustified (seriously guys, ever heard of caching ffs?), the finishing moves are repetitive, the player movements feel clucnky and "heavy", and the graphics, tho not bad by any means, aren't very polished either.

All in all a decent time-waster, but I doubt anybody will remember it a couple of months from now...

gore and M rating only can't make a good slasher
the only thing that was holding this game for me till chapter 3 was satan, then i just couldn't bother with it any longer, plus horrid loadings hdd or no hdd

instead i switched to Amnesia, now that game is something Wink
