Have you ever wanted to lead a group of zombie attack survivors through the wilds of Laurelhurst Park?
Too damn bad. The Last Guy doesn’t do Portland, Oregon (yet).
What it does do though, is give PlayStation 3 owners a chance to lead people to safety among hordes of zombies, insects and monsters on a real-time map of Akakusa, Japan culled directly from Google Earth.
It’d be much more rad if it were personally tailored to the area I live in, but that’s an argument I can make with any game — Grand Theft Auto Hillsboro anyone?
i grew up in hillsboro and i know where all the sweet jumps and gun shops are/were located. “fairly honest don’s machine gun parlor” was a real place. Also, ask anyone who was in middle school from 1989-94 where the “dunes” were located.
holy crap i want GTAHB
Where’s that review of Soulcaliber 4? I want a serious review of its artistic merits.
Soon, Graham. Soon.
How come video game reviews are ghettoized into the Film Section? It’s a travesty. Fucking travesty I say.
Moving past your dickish assertion that the film section is a ghetto, Graham, the reason is this: We don’t have a full gaming section in the paper, so videogames, when we cover them, have to get stuck into another section. For now, at least, gaming seems to fit best alongside film–or at least it fits better there than it would alongside music, or books, or theater, or food, or etc.
