D2 - Kenji Eno gives you pain.
So lately I've been collecting all the DC games I never got around to getting. Being the goofy guy that I am I bought all the quality titles when they were first released at full price, so now I am left scraping up the poo, and I don't think I've found anything that says "I am poo" more than D2.
I was kinda excited about this game when it was released. Not because it looked like a quality game or anything. I just heard it had tentacle rape, or something close to tentacle rape, and while that sorta thing seems to be all over the place in the Far East it's a rare occasion when we get wacky stuff like that over here. I'd always meant to rent it but for some odd reason it was always checked out, which I found disturbing. Why would anyone other than me want to play a 4 disc arctic tentacle rape drama? And who would enjoy it so much that they'd never return it? So. Uh. Yeah, I never got to play it. Until I bought it for $10 the other day, which was $10 that coulda gone to buying 5 copies of EGGS OF STEEL. I would've been so much better off.
The opening is hilarious - almost approaching MGS2 levels, but lacking any blowaway lines such as "I LIVE ON THROUGH THIS ARM!" Still, it was jolly fun. The airplane shootout, the chick deepthroating the tentacle, the "Even though they bleed green do they not feel pain?!" and "A Swede told me it's cool to kill bunnies" speeches, the barbecue...all tops. Then I had to actually PLAY the game. It's really a shame that all the great crackpot storytellers of the video game industry can't get all freaky without tacking awful gameplay segments in between the hour long cinemas. (Here's hoping XENOSAGA breaks the trend.) After 10 minutes of walking very s.l.o.w.l.y. through the snow in a miniskirt and killing a few tentacles here and there I gave up on the game and I'm not sure I'll ever pick it up again. Anyone out there manage to finish this game, and if so what's the ratio of terribly bad, hilarious cutscenes to terribly bad painful traipsing thru the snow? How long is this game? Does anything come close to topping the zany 20 minute intro? Should I just bury it in the backyard with my copies of Pen Pen Tricelion and Sengoku Turb? What goofball at Sega decided to translate this 4 disc abortion while leaving other quality first party Sega games in Japan?
Also, does anyone know what's going on with WARP? This is the first "game" of their's I've "played" - are the original D or Enemy Zero worth...um...experiencing? Did WARP go out of business? I vaguely remember reading something about that awhile back, and I think it may have been on video-senki, but I haven't been able to access that site in weeks. Heck, screw Kenji Eno. What happened to fen? Did GamePro eat the site?

Rummy stick with it I finished and thought there was a great message it albeit wierd. You get access to the snowmobile which makes things easier and there are some really cool bosses. Hey what other game has images of Martin Luther King and Hitler in it? The game is short and you don't need to be maxed out for the final boss. You have unlimited meat and ammo which takes the rationing factor out of it.
The ending is well worth the price of admission but the story still confuses me.

Hypocracy at it's best... what a FAG. I guess I shouldn't use words like that, huh? It's kinda insensitive and not socially responsible.... not like tentacle rape... :rolleyes: You made my sig! Congrats!
