As you will probably all know Burger King started selling special Xbox 360 games a few weeks ago for only $4. There are three different games, of which Big Bumpin' is the last one. Today a trailer of this weird but nice looking little game.
This week's Episode of VS, brings you Ray vs. Michael!
Hardcore Gamer: The only thing that makes us happy about this whole dark period of gaming history is that this didn’t start a trend. There was no Subway game where you had to run Jared around and stop him from getting fat again and McDonald’s never made a game where you tried to give an entire kindergarten classroom diabetes. Burger King stood alone in this madness, because surely nothing would help food sales better than a handful of crappy video games featuring a character everyone hated.
I liked these games. Call me a masochist.
They do hold the distinction of being the only 360/Xbox dual compatible games. They run on OG and boot as regular 360 titles without the emulation update.
I'm ashamed to admit I own a couple of these. Not that they're the world's worst games -- I'm mostly ashamed to admit I used to eat Burger King fairly regularly.
I had 4 bucks worth of fun with it, but then again I'm a fat guy with a juvenile sense of humor.
"...but then again I'm a fat guy with a juvenile sense of humor."
Good point. I'm not sure if that humor will carry over to a bean with a cool sense of humor. Worth a try though! ^^
When I was in college, our video games club officers had this disturbing fascination with Big Bumpin'. One meeting, we were going to have a Skyrim demonstration, but the officers wanted to play Big Bumpin' in front of us all instead.
True story.
The second game that Alex Rubens is doing for Game Bytes are the Burger King games, which are Big Bumpin’, Pocket Bike Racer, and Sneak King, for the Xbox 360. YouTube has a 15 minute limit so the videos are split up into two different parts. The Audio is fixed in this episode! YAY!
NOTE: Follow the link for the second video!
I got all three when they launched, they were given to me by my Son as a stocking stuffer back in the day. I like them for what they are, pretty much arcade games on disk, with achievements and online play they are worth the price.
Pocket Bike Racer is by far the best and hardest one to find now days. Worth picking up if you have a 360 and like $3.
these games are worth the $4!
My biggest complaint is that they are virtually unplayable online. Even when you do get into a game, it is the biggest lagfest I have ever seen.
But for $4 its kinda hard to complain too much. I have this strange feeling that it won't be fixed either.
I picked up all three (Sneak King, Mini Bike Racer, and Big Bumpin")
FOr the 4 or 5 dollars you pay .. they are pretty cool.
I got Sneak King and Pocket Bike Racer and PBR is the sh1t! I love it. I'll be getting Big Bumpin' soon. Definitely worth the $4.
