They Try So Hard...

Budget based DS titles are always amusing... either the developers are trying to crank something out for a quick buck, or the premise is so quirky there is no sort of advertising involved whatsoever. Shuffling through a library of available games in a store, this particular box caught my attention instantly:



You know you're in for something special when the guy on the cover IS EXPLAINING WHO HE IS! My guess is if they just showcased the picture of him with the patented thumbs up, he might be mistaken for a pilot or just some schmuck with a headset on. Who the hell is flying those planes in the background btw, a frigg'n chimp? o_o I suppose that is where the "Chaos" element kicks in!

Strolling through the Wii section produced similar results and while I wasn't able to snap a pic of it, the name alone could tell so much about it without seeing it. "Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom" had a price tag of 10 dollars. Unless it involves a parody of sorts, anything with the attachment "of Doom" should not be used in a serious matter.

Shovelware, you so claaaazy!
