Bruce, maybe I should play this game.

I'll admit that game succeeded in being unpleasant in several parts and the goatse.cx guy was pretty disturbing (luckily, that was the first and last time I saw that). Even though it was the mental 'be over soon please' equivelent of being burned by scalding shower water and just wondering when it all stop, flailing around helplessly for the knob, I didn't really think the game was trying to offend me except in the 'if you're offended by this, you don't get the joke and it's your own damn fault' sort of way.

I hate you all.

I go out of my way to create a game with the goatse.cx guy and, for God's sake, an "antler job," and it's not even going to get a mention.

This game sounds utterly reprehensible.

And sadly, I think I recall seeing copies of it on the shelf all the time when I worked at EB. This is an older game, right? I never picked it up, though... it looks like I probably should have due to the sheer terribleness of its characters. (Meant in a morality way, not in a quality way.) Anything with Knight Orc-like NPC hate towards the player is good with me.

Battle Raper, Fallout 2, and Torment solely based on what an evil bastard you could be.

Just because I'm not sure what anyone can say to that, lemme ask you, what games do you guys think are contenders for 'most offensive game ever'?

For several years, I've owned a DOS game (well, technically, it's supposed to work in Windows 9x, too, but I never got the sound working well that way) called Harvester, but ironically, I only was successful in getting it to run well with this computer that I put together last year. I just want to say, this game really is the most disturbing thing I've ever played. Unfortunately, I'm impatient enough that I'm basically playing through it by completely referencing the walkthrough from gamefaqs (when I first tried this game the other month, my play session ended when this military dude shot me in the eye for sounding too much like a commie, accidentally hitting the big red button that fires the nuclear missiles in the process). Just the same, I'm pretty fascinated by it all. I'm going to be recommending this to several people, but at the same time, I won't be disappointed or surprised if any of them just find that it goes too far. This really is the kind of game that I think the Postal people really wanted to do themselves.

To tie this with the current movie discussion in the other thread, it looks like the lady who plays the protagonist's girlfriend had a small role in Bottle Rocket, although I don't remember who she was offhand.
