I was also oversold on the game. It looks pretty cool, like a pretty bizarre puzzle game that at times might mess with your preconceived notions about how things normally work in video games. But when the quicklook started out I was given the idea that my mind would totally be blown and I would have to create an entire new set of rules in order to even traverse the game world. Like I would have to submerge myself in a whole new life of truths and laws to even comprehend what was happening on screen. Maybe that's just my childish expectations taking over but when I hear these sorts of buzzwords thrown around I expect a little more astonishment from the experience. Again, not saying the game looks bad or anything, in fact it looks quite cool but I was just a little underwhelmed thanks to the foreword at the start of the quicklook.

@Ravenlight: Haha, you know, I'm always up for a good ass-greasing, make it a bad one, well that's even better.

@FluxWaveZ: Oh man, good call, that game has just the attitude I was thinking of, that kid is basically Holden Caulfield, it totally slipped my mind. I don't know what it is about troubled youths that I find so interesting, it's like, on the outside, they're just the kind of people you'd hate to be around, but then they break it to you why they act the way they do, and you feel bad for ever doubting their character. I mean, as long as they do more good deeds than bad, but most games give the hero more positive traits than negative ones, so it's not usually a problem. Thanks a lot!

So I recently played Renegade on the NES for the first time, and while I've played a lot of the other Technos games, such as River City Ransom and the Double Dragon games, for some reason this inspired me to find other beat em ups with this kind of attitude. I fear it's not really a popular concept though, since my search didn't really turn up any real results.

I guess I'm really just asking to see if anyone else knew any cool games with bad-ass greaser type dudes running around acting tough and beating the living daylights out of any other tough guys they meet. I'm also aware that there were a bunch more Kunio games in japan, but since I don't speak japanese, I found my enjoyment with these titles to be limited. Also I know they're not called greasers if they're japanese, I just feel that this is the most effective american analog I could think of. They behave the same way, and in river city ransom, they even dress like straight up greasers, a la "Outsiders". That's an awesome book by the way, and the movie was cool too. Anyway, I hope I got this idea across effectively, thanks for any and all help.

P.S. I'm not a violent person, while violence and crime is an attractive prospect in movies and games, I feel that in real life this couldn't be further from the truth.

@Sarx: Therapy isn't for everyone. Don't look at everything so absolutely man. Not every situation is exactly the same so please don't make blanket statements and act like you've solved everyone's problems.

You guys are being kind of sucky. You accuse him of thinking he's better than everyone else, and then assume that he's just being whiny or dramatic. There are certain people who feel this way. They live life this way and they're pretty okay with it. It's kind of a bummer but it's what they're comfortable with. You shouldn't think your outlook on life is more appropriate than someone else's because it doesn't make sense to you. It's pretty ironic saying, "no, because I'm not a child." or "no, because I grew up". That's some pretty substantial immaturity there and you're not giving us a reason to change our minds.

Whenever I need it for anything important

You guys are fucking crazy, I hope a bunch of you are lying.

@BestUsernameEver: Hahaha wow, that actually might have been it, that looks way fucking better than the thing I found. That's the best dude.

@BestUsernameEver: That show was awesome. Then there was Hey! Spring of Trivia also on spike. And Banzai on some other network. I think I found the one I was looking for by the way, maybe. I think it's called Onedari Muscat or something. It's not really a game show, since the girls don't really win anything, but whatever.
