Riddick game adverstisement on DAC forum banner

Post by Franz Schubert »

It was for the game Chronicles of Riddick. I just noticed that it only had room for one line of text in that small banner, and it wrote:

"Great game! Over 15 weapons!"

It just struck me as funny that out of every selling selling point they could have come up with in that space, they chose to detail how many weapons there are in the game.

WHEN EXACTLY DID THAT START TO FUCKING MATTER???

It's the best part of the game.

Graphics suck.
Sound acting sucks.
People suck.
There's no plot.

At least we got 15 weapons, all unique! Yay!

Hey, truly unique and fun weapons can be hard to come by. It's probably just the standard pistol with burst fire / assault rifle with grenade launcher junk, though.
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

Well *truly* unique doesn't equal *marketing* unique. The latter only requires 15 weapons with different models and different names.

Yes... it's a shame a movie like Pitch Black got such a sucky sequel.
