To celebrate our great country's existence on this special day(July 4th), let's launch a couple of fireworks and figure out what the most american video game of all time
I nominate Metal Wolf Chaos, a mech game where you play as the president in a mech suit fighting against terrorists. I don't think it ever came out here.... but it's amazing.
I would totally buy that if it came out here. Watched a Lets Play of the entire game. Oh. My. God. I second that nomination.
Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today? Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection. Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out tosave America!
America's Army? Seriously, though, Metal Wolf Chaos is one of my favorite concepts ever. And yes, "HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?!?!?!" became my personal battlecry after seeing the Let's Play of this game.
No More Heroes. It's about a guy who buys a lightsaber on the internet, and uses it to become an assassin, and he uses the money he gets to buy wrestling videos.
It's pretty tough to top Metal Wolf Chaos or 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, but I should throw in an honorable mention for Blast Corps, even if it was developed by Englishmen ( Rare). I mention it cause I wrote a review for it on the site, and while I was writing it, it occurred to me that premise of Blast Corps sounds the like most 'America, Fuck Yeah!' ever: A truck with a nuclear missile on it gone runaway, and you need to save the world by indiscriminately destroying every house and building in the trucks way... and all the other ones... cause, you know... Fuck Yeah!
Even the way you "save" survivors is by destroying the buildings that they are "trapped" in (what?). After you finish the main "story" campaign, your demolition team, bored by mundane Earthly planet-wide destruction, sets its sights to the stars, and you proceed to go from planet to planet destroying and kind of space colony structures you might find... FUCK YEAH!!
