Entertainment for kids has been going the wrong way already for some time. Where we could have fun with books by Thea Beckman and Roald Dahl, they now need to suffice with horrible movies. Also concerning games things are going downhill. Games based on obscure and not so funny animation movies were never something to write home about but this really crosses the line.
I'm the oldest of five at home and remember very well my brothers and sisters as little enfants that made my matchbox cars and lego blocks disappear, whether or not in the local stomach or intestants. Kids, however, aren't stupid. Kids can take a hit and a mild flavour of horror. Not that you need to put little Toddler in front of the tube when Nightmare on Elm Street is on, but why is Witches by Roald Dahl such a successful children's book? Why is Anthony Horowitz a brilliant (youth)author? And why is Grieselstate so much better than Harry Potter? Because Dahl, Horowitz and colleagues knew that you don't have to play with children's feet and that they can take a bit of horror.
Nobody has died from a bit of blood and horror. I know very well what we as kids could see on TV and that was thousand times better than what's on Nickelodeon these days. Agreed, nobody died in The A-Team but it was cool, and Airwolf was a cool chopper and The Goonies a fun movie. How can it be that children these days have to do with something like Open Season? You would start burning busses in an important European city by choice for less.
My girlfriend described the gameplay as "autistic". That can't be good, certainly not if the words come from a clinical psychologist. Linear and boring is what we - specialists of digital entertainment - would call it. This game is so bad, but really SO bad, that there's no value in the universe that can make you feel just how bad it is. Only the absolute zero comes near the score this... deserves. Yes, there are no words as even shit has some useage and can be appreciated by some specialists for its aesthetic character.
Belgian pedophiles decorate their cell with it and for Dirk Zoete it was the main commodity for his art. I'm wondering by the way whether he's found a new hype already with which he can spill government money while people are on to him.
I hope the reader has been made clear that he shouldn't spill money on this "game" and if in a wave of insanity he's already done this, I suggest you send it back and hire a good lawyer. I guarantee you'll get a refund!
