It’s a mad, MadWorld blooper reel

March 21st, 2009 by Xav de Matos

Make no mistake, MadWorld is one of the most violent games we’ve ever seen but it’s all wrapped up into a big joke. It’s over the top, insane and pretty hilarious. Some of that hilarity is thanks to the one-two commentary punch of Greg Proops (Whose Line is It, Anyway?) and John DiMaggio (Bender from Futurama, among other things). Unfortunately, the latest trailer for MadWorld doesn’t include Proops & DiMaggio but a pair of actors trying desperately to pretend to be hilarious. Maybe we’re being overly harsh but you be the judge, check out the trailer after the break.

SEGA offers advice, creates MadWorld must-do list

March 16th, 2009 by Dustin Burg

Platinum Games’ well received MadWorld has been abusing and roughing up the Wii for few days and SEGA decided its the opportune time to give game advice. Only because the publisher wants to make sure everyone is getting the most brutal experience possible.

The top ten MadWorld must-do list is what SEGA came up with and is (interestingly enough) penned by the company’s own senior localization producer, Patrick Riley. The list includes a few gameplay tips, some Challenge tricks and various insightful nuggets of information, like the fact that Jack can impale foes with a total of five, yes five caution signs. Yes sir … the more you know.

Touch Ruminations: It’s a MadWorld Out There

March 13th, 2009 by David Hinkle

In Touch Ruminations, former DS and Wii Fanboy Lead David Hinkle talks about whatever he feels like. He’s a jerk like that. This week, it’s all about Jack and his crazy romp through Varrigan City’s Death Watch in MadWorld. The opinions expressed here belong to the author and don’t necessarily reflect those of Joystiq, Weblogs Inc. or its affiliates.

MadWorld has been the biggest game on my radar for awhile, both professionally and personally. As a big fan of God Hand, I immediately compared MadWorld to that and expected it to carry over a lot of the things that game did so well: memorably goofy characters, ridiculously over-the-top combat, and an inspired, memorable setting. I’m glad to say that MadWorld has all of these things so far (I’ve only gotten through the first 3 stages, so that could change; my copy only arrived yesterday morning).

MadWorld screens show off new bad guys, same old buckets of blood

February 16th, 2009 by David Hinkle
Click image for more carnage

Sega sent us a shiny care package, completely full of new screens from next month’s MadWorld. As one might expect, there are at least three awesome things about these images:

  • lots of violence
  • motorcycles looking badass
  • fat guy in a turtle suit

We’re big fans of those three things, which, obviously, make us big fans of MadWorld. The fat guy reminds us of Dynamo, which is the best. Check out the new screens in our gallery below.

NYCC 09: MadWorld hands-on (Wii)

February 7th, 2009 by Majed Athab

MadWorld seems to be made with the theme: if you can see it, you can kill someone with it. This game is all about gore and the sadistic glee one derives from spilling others’ blood. We’ve kept our eye on this title for nearly a year now, and with a release looming so closely, Sega finally lets us try it out for the first time.

So what does it feel like going through this ultra-violent Wii title? What does one feel while holding Jack’s chainsaw and using the Wiimote to cut into enemies? It feels great - so natural and so good.

Fresh blood from MadWorld

November 16th, 2008 by Alisha Karabinus

Filed under:

There’s not much we’d rather do on the weekend than stare for hours at the gorgeous MadWorld, but since we can’t look at the real thing, we’ll have to settle for a few new screenshots. Not everyone agrees (blasphemy!), but we can’t find anything wrong with a little black and white violence. Study the new screens (located in our gallery below) and see if you agree.
