So we’ve been talking a lot about site features for the full site launch today and, at some point, we started talking about the lists feature. This, naturally, led to me talking about rodeo clowns and games that should have them. Much like Ryan’s top game ghosts list, here’s my list of games that, for reasons I will keep to myself, would totally benefit from the inclusion of a rodeo clown.
Street Fighter IV (arcade)
Army of Two (360, PS3)
The Guy Game (PS2, Xbox)
Silent Hill 4: The Room (PS2, Xbox, PC)
World of Warcraft (PC)
Chiller (NES, arcade)
Uno (360)
Time Traveller (arcade)
Star Castle (arcade)
Night Trap (Sega CD, 3DO)
…and yeah, we’ll talk more about the lists at a later date.

rodeo clown in street fighter would definetely make me want to get it
Rodeo Clown > Luchador. You know I’m right.
Silent Hill 4 eh? I didnt think it could get any scarier, but that’s some freaky thinking there.
You forgot Jackass the Game!
What game wouldn’t benefit from rodeo clowns?
You still tweaking from those energy drinks, man?
Solid Top Ten List. It provides for great discussion in the highly controversial topic of rodeo clowns in video games. Great stuff, G. Keep ‘em coming.
Rodeo Clown in Silent Hill, fucking scary.
um ok..
Haha. These are some random posts. Clowns? Ghosts?
You had to go there. You had to mention the 3DO … I had spent much time removing from my mind the fact that I bought that system …. twice!
If rodeo clown was a WoW character class, i would go back to it. Rodeo clowns are full of win.
Chiller? Really?!
That rodeo clown looks like Rich.
Dude, yeah. What could possibly makes rodeo clowns better? Zombie rodeo clowns, that’s what. In fact, chiller shouldn’t only contain rodeo clowns, it should be about and revolve around rodeo clowns period.
Hahaha, Night Trap? As if that game weren’t f’d up enough already.
Rodeo clowns are the root of the WoW community I thought
O..Kay..
Hope you guys aren’t running out of ideas for articles
Rodeo clowns in The Guy Game? That is dirtier beyond belief.
Burnout Paradise would rock with a Rodeo Clown.
Make him DJ Atomica for the bonus.
Sir, only hell itself would benefit from any sort of clown.
Clowns just aren’t meant to do rodeo anyway, still I would put one in KISS PSYCHO CIRCUS… wait a minute, there already were blood-thirsty clowns in the game. This wouldn’t even seem strange.
I’d like to see a rodeo clown in Soul Calibur 4.. They already threw in 2 totally random characters (Darth Vader and Yoda.. wtf?), so why not throw in a rodeo clown or 2?
Street Fighter IV-Yes
UNO-WTF?
Heh…rodeo clowns in the Guy Game.
What game wouldn’t benefit from a rodeo clown?
How about:
Smackdown Vs. Raw 2009 (bring back Doink and give him a lasso)
Trauma Center (rodeo-related injuries)
Clowns (the old Atari game where you use a spinner to bounce clowns on a see-saw into balloons — that game would be much better at a rodeo)
God of War II (duh!)
Sims 2: Rodeo Stuff

what about soul caliber for the wii?
Hell yea UNO!
Just make a rodeo game that has you playing as the clown. You could live the thrill of attracting a pissed off bull’s attention, diving into a barrel, and holding on for dear life as the bull rams the barrel with all the force of a howitzer shot.
Seriously, I wouldn’t want to mess with a rodeo clown. Those dudes are tough.
Banana Kid raises a good question…
They would have to be the rodeo clowns from “Shakes the Clown.” Knowing that you’re a film connesuir(sp we) I’m sure that you’ve screened this diamond in the rough in your cinematic adventures. The guy who does the voice of SpongeBob as a coke head rodeo clown = movie magic.
What.
The.
Hell?
Duck Hunt and Gunsmoke.
You seem to have forgotten Mass Effect.
The option to engage in graphic, cross-species relations involving aliens of varying hues and rodeo clowns would be just the ticket for the industry to corrupt the innocent minds of every child gamer out there.
That and Pong. Pong definitely needs an updated Rodeo Clown Edition.
Chiller (Arcade) is insane.
Google it, you’ll see what I mean. It’s “torture porn” for gamers. *From the early 80s*.
You forgot Crane Operator: Shadow of the Operator
Halo could do with a circus clown…and he would be called Guilty Spark.
Do you realy want a chalange??? Try to think of 10 games that wouldn’t benefit from a rodeo clown????????? I can’t think of one.
RODEO CLOWNS FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rodeo clown in UNO?! Oooh, i c wut u did thar.
wow i just checked out that game zues talked about
“Chiller (Arcade) is insane.
Google it, you’ll see what I mean. It’s “torture porn” for gamers. *From the early 80s*.”
That’s really insane, wonder is it will come to the virtual console
Oh right, it’s a rodeo clown as opposed to a circus clown. Well, in that case…
you should have a rodeo clown in your office AT ALL TIMES!!
Yes, an obscure Night Trap reference. OUTSTANDING!
OMG, you just dropped a Night Trap line…Holy Lord. Such a gem.
What is this? Nonsense just for the sake of nonsense?
I will humor you and participate. I know there is always a method to your madness.
Burnout is in dire need of a Rodeo Clown.
I think nonsense for the sake of nonsense is the best kind of nonsense , thanks again guys.
the guy game?
Yes, a Rodeo Clown character class in WOW. I would definatly play that to the levelcap. NOT!!!!!11one
Pure Genious.
Rodeo Clowns are one of the most dangerous breed of clown (derived from the latin word clowninus). They are neither funny nor forgiving, living a life of the alternative target for long horned bulls tend to condition rodeo clowns into what some may say are “the perfect living weapon.”
Usually traveling in groups of three, Rodeo Clowns and their bull-taunting tactics are banned in 32 states and should be approached with extreme caution.
Well this list has made my day!
There should never be clowns in my video games. I’m almost 20 years old and they still scare the hell out of me.
