Ropten: Back in July, the world met DeathSpank. Dispenser of Justice, Vanquisher of Evil, and Hero to the Downtrodden. He was a character just ridiculous enough to work, so ridiculous in fact that a full blown sequel is set to be released a mere two months after the original game!! Bearing the purple Thong of Justice, DeathSpank is now on a new mission, to recover the remaining Thongs of Virtue.
So anyway, we decided to catch up with DeathSpank and Thongs of Virtue producer Hamish Millar from Hothead Games to get some insight into just what makes DeathSpank so awesome.
The Eccentric Gamer: "In the spirit of the festive season, some of us want to slay Santa in glorious battle. Santa Claus, Kris Kringle, St. Nick. Whatever you might call him, you have probably never heard of Thong-Weaver Santa.
Here is our top 5 list of games where Santa comes out to play, delivering some whoop-ass in the process."
The North Pole Arena in Twisted Metal 2 had a few Santas you could merk. Ahh the memories!
Hardcore Gamer: Paying anything over $1 gets you a Steam key for DeathSpank, DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue, and Penny Arcade's On the Rain Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode One. Paying $6 or more gets you Episode Two and The Baconing. OSTs are DeathSpank and Episode One are included with every purchase.
"Ever since games got more complex, there have been fairly odd tasks you can perform. Some of these have a use while some are just Easter eggs and others just are out of place. After trophies/achievements came into play, some games assigned an award for these tasks. While not every task is off the wall weird, some are worth noting and we’ve compiled five of the pretty random trophies we could find" - JPS
the weirdest achievement I've encountered is when I was playing MGS HD Collection. I have to kiss a poster of a sexy girl in the locker lol
I thought tying a lady to the traintracks and waiting for the train in RDR was the weirdest one for me.
A fun game.
Seems intense.
Who needs Diablo when we've got DeathSpank!!
Thongs = Epic win regardless
