You guys better take advantage of this deal fast. Revelations 2012 is a glorious and beautiful game that must be played before the coming apocalypse.

You sick, sick man.

What if they don't know? What if they just go impulse buy it? You will ruin their life D:

Well, at least I noticed the Penny Arcade pack and picked that up.

Can we please pick a target more worthy of internet hate and joke-making? The game looks completely average at worst and it amazes me that TotalBiscuit actually had some sort of emotion while playing the game.

What's the game about?

It's basically a shitty Left 4 Dead ripoff based on the upcoming end of the Mayan calendar.

Which makes it suck even more for the developer because they made the game before the announcement that the Mayan calender was discovered that extends the history for another thousand or so years.

Now it just looks silly. No more silly than looking for modern revelations in ruins of antiquity.

Now as for the game actually I think there is room in the market for a good apocalypse survival type game. Little more than just replacing zombies with mythos monster NPCs. I could see a game where there is absolutely no hope to survive in a gigantic open world environment with a "difficulty" that would make the Souls games piss their pants and go crying to mamma like a little girl and in essence a no win scenario where the Objective is nothing more than surviving as long as humanly possible with procedurally generated world that constantly throws waves of different types of "apocalyptic" enemies ranging from zombies, human raiders, mythological creatures, mutants, angels, demons and have environmental factors come into play like hurricanes, tsunamis, flash freeze, solar flares, Nukes comets, fractures in reality ect. I think a game like that could potentially be awesome. Shame its too late for a good game like that to be developed so it can capitalize on the 2012 hype.

Tell me you wouldnt want to play a game like that.
