The first Giantbomb age gate. Totally shocked. I suppose this is probably as good a game as any to start that trend, though.

hehe...*whispers* i lied about my age....hehe.

anyway, this game looks so shitty. watching this gave me a headache. the violent nature of this game looks so gimmicky. and the gameplay seems to be repetitive. MAD WORLD= FAIL.

I can understand age gating, just to protect the site from liability, but why does the age start at 1? How many 1 year olds do you know who can run a PC? Or 2 or even 3 year olds? Feels like a waste of digits to me.

Man, is it me, or are you guys slowly becoming really bad at games? i'm not one to call out dumb shit like that, but it's really noticable in quick looks!

Oh and it is John DiMaggio.

I dunno, this game makes total sense to me, and it's totally awesome.

I won't be watching the video till after I've play through Madworld, as I don't want to spoil anything.

The games sounding really good though and thanks for the video, I'm looking forward to seeing it in the future.

I just watched some seriously messed up Russian "reanimation of dead matter" video from 1940.  Nothing on this is even remotely disturbing by comparison, and is sorta soothing, to be honest.

I'd like to see this aesthetic in a new ZPC game, maybe. 

The moves seem a bit repetitive, is that all you can do with a sign?

Rule Number Two: DON'T! punch the deathpress!

I still find this extremely hard to look at. While the first level of this was fascinatingly entertaining, the second one felt like "been there, done that".

There's a problem with the age gate in Firefox 3.0.7 running in Ubuntu, it just comes up with the text 'How old are you' with nowhere to choose.

This game reminds me of State of Emergency. Lots of brutal violence that gets it attention. But the game play looks pretty boring to me. Dudes just seem to wait around to be murdered. Maybe it's on a easier difficulty setting?

Aw, I feel a little let down, it looks so shallow. =/

Still, it reminded me I was gonna play through God Hand again, some of the basic mechanics are the same.

Doesn't actually look all that interesting, which is surprising to say the least.

Giant Bomb should ask "How old are you" and have 2 choice given: Old Enough, and Not Old Enough.

I don't know... I differently like the art-style, but I don't know about the fighting mechanic.

Can you just pick everybody up and walk around with them without anybody else intervening?
Seems kind of stupid easy and not really satisfying at all.
