played the demo , thought it was quite entertaining not worth the 1200 points though really...especially when i have gow2, forza3 to fin

Downloaded this last night, had to stop because my loling was keeping other people awake.

Ron Gilbert is a comedy genius.

Great so far, and well worth 1200 points imo, even more so when you consider it's the same price as those expensive map packs for MW2.

Think I'm going to give this a go, is it like Diablo with more comedy involved?

Much much more comedy.

The codpiece joke near the start when you meet the witch had me in stitches.

I can't remember the exact wording but it went something like

DeathSpank : I had a battle with (enter name here)'s mighty codpiece.
Witch : Was it hard
DeathSpank : A little towards the end.

DeathSpank: Greetings Cow!
Cow: *grunt* Moo....
DeathSpank: You're so wise!

I'm not sure what it is with this game, but something is really putting me off buying it and I can't put my finger on it.

Have you played the demo, the humour is what does it for me.

Insanity?

Bought this yesterday , 3 hours later I'm still playing love the game and the humour,was running through it thinking this is easy , just for it to remind mind me It's not, was getting carried away running into large groups , few puzzles in it also all in all a good game.

Just finished off leveling to 20, game finished and all trophies done. Was pretty fun and lasted longer than some retail games priced at 40 quid (God of War 3)

CliffyBiro · 1 Aug 2010 at 00:37

Hmm... I'm interested. I hear it's just 8 hours long though including side missons?

It's either this, or Premier Manager.

Who dreamt up this title then as my Mum reckoned I'd only go blind.

CliffyBiro · 1 Aug 2010 at 00:41

It reminded me of Donkey Punch.

TriedandTested · 15 Aug 2010 at 17:15

This game worth a punt then?
