Anyone notice there was a "/" right after a question mark in the subtitles? Geeze this looks like a VERY low quality game.
But that's the beauty of it. I can't explain it very well, because it's a game that you just need to play for yourself in order to truly get what I'm saying. It
knows that it's bad - but it's just so bad, that it manages to pull it off flawlessly.
I mean, the setting is dull but surreal, the characters are eccentric but interesting, and the dialogue is right out of left field, but crafted masterfully.
It's incredible.[footnote]So says Mr. Stewart[/footnote]
You would think that Deadly Premonition would be a quick cash-in that took maybe a year to develop, where it's actually spent
years in development. The earliest point in it's history that I can recall was back in 2007, and research even states that it's been tossed around earlier than that.
As Jim Sterling from Destructoid puts it:
"It stumbles, psychotically, from one unbelievable scene to the next, managing to be shockingly tasteless, flagrantly stupid, and subtly self-aware at all times." [http://www.destructoid.com/review-deadly-premonition-165168.phtml]
Truly a game that shares a tier of brilliance with No More Heroes. A "beautiful trainwreck," if you will.

not own an Xbox, it is known as
Red Seeds Profile in Japan, and yes, it is English on the PS3. It will cost quite a bit more to import it, but I
highly recommend you do so.[/sub][/sub]
