Thrill Kill

Grizzlyjin · Jul 19, 2004

First thing that came to my mind was Thrill Kill or something like that.

AndreasNystrom · Jul 19, 2004

i have the beta of that game somewhere here.

well, yes its pretty bloddy

but i think its pretty crap aswell. so you didnt miss anything.
but the guy wit hte chain is pretty cool

Diomedeskun · Jul 19, 2004

It did not deserve a release. The beta is surprisingly not fun for a multiplayer game where you get to pound on friends, especially considering the hype it got.

Alucard · Jul 19, 2004

They could probably release it now without a lot of difficulty. Especially with things like GTA3 and Manhunt out there.

Kiriku · Jul 19, 2004

Since noone else has said it: Thrill Kill.

Gattsu25 · Jul 19, 2004

Since no one else mentioned this: Thrill Kill

u_neek · Jul 19, 2004

Oh, now I remember! It was called Thrill Kill...

Sorry for taking your precious time...

(thanx)

Gek54 · Jul 19, 2004

Later turned in to Wu Tang, also ass.

lol omg i cant belive no one remembers, it's thrill kill!!
But i never understood why they didnt let them realease the game, i mean Mortal Kombat had pretty much the same "sick" shit.

The game sucked 7 shades of ass too?

Diomedeskun · Jul 19, 2004

It was really really bad. While it may have mainly been the "content", it was excruciatingly bad as a game and EA does seem to have some standards as far as gameplay.

Outlaw · Jul 19, 2004

I think it was called Thrill Kill....

Hehe, yeah...

Suerte · Jul 19, 2004

By any chance was it called Thrill Kill?

Cerebral Palsy · Jul 19, 2004

Sounds like it could be Thrill Kill.

Littleberu · Jul 19, 2004

Ah what was it called already?

BeOnEdge · Jul 19, 2004

i think its thriller. michael jackson was in it or something.

u_neek · Jul 19, 2004

belgurdo · Jul 19, 2004

Ironic thing is, EA or whoever a couple of years later replaced all of the characters with members of the Wu Tang Clan and released it as "Shaolin Style." To paraphrase an EGM reviewer, the content was now worse because it had "real people engaging in bloody violence, which was more morally suspect"

TheDiave · Jul 19, 2004

It was Thrill Kill... I remember seeing a PSOne game THQ had in development around the same time called Shaolin (I think...), but it later got canned too. THQ's 4-player fighter was more traditional and not very violent.

neptunes · Jul 19, 2004

was it really that gruesome?

what kind of things could you do in it?

Biofreaks rocked! Seriously.

And I played Thrill Kill.

Kobun Heat · Jul 19, 2004

As a gaming journalist (TM) I am the only person qualified to tell you that it is, indeed, Thrill Kill.

There was one girl that'd punish the person she's fighting and start having an orgasm as she did it. The game was fairly bad in terms of content and the fully uncensored version was going to recieve an A/O rating.

Matlock · Jul 19, 2004

When I read the topic title, I remembered everything about that damn game. Then I entered, and read up everything I thought about. Kooky.

Edit: I wonder if Dr. Faustus is in any way inspired (or the other way around) by Faust in Guilty Gear?

Actually Shaolin was 8 players (being represented by the types of featureless men you see on bathroom signs, oddly) and had some kind of story mode

And actually, Shaolin made it out, just not in the States; the game was a Japanese-only release. IIRC it was developed by Polygon Magic, who after making crap like Vs., would go onto make good games like Incredible Crisis and Slap Happy Rhythm Busters. I don't remember the Japanese title that Shaolin had, though....does anyone remember? The game blew, if you were wondering.

The Faceless Master · Jul 19, 2004

i had a beta of thrill kill... i also got the so called "final beta" and "directors cut" of it somewhere around... the game is decent, better than bloody roar... some crazy combos in thrill kill...

AndreasNystrom · Jul 19, 2004

Are you guys sure it was Thrill Kill?.

Docpan · Jul 19, 2004

Seriously though.

Tell us the name of the game. Now you've even got me curious.

Kandinsky · Jul 19, 2004

u_neek · Jul 19, 2004

Now we're talking canned PS1 games - does anyone remember Eidos' Saboteur? I was hyped like shit in the British magazines but was never released.

Looked pretty cool at the time though...

AndreasNystrom · Jul 19, 2004

OMFG! Saboteur!!!

That was one of the best games EVER for my Spectrum!. Cool!

and in Saboteur 2, the guy from Saboteur got killed, and his sister wanted revenge..
those games were so great i thought!.

Btw.. at the time, it was "Durrel" that made them.. best versions was on Spectrum ofcourse, with a special 128kb version for the saboteur2

AndreasNystrom · Jul 19, 2004

read about it here http://www.crashonline.org.uk/24/saboteur.htm

got a "smash crash" and 93%

edit.. btw, i think metal gear solid stole the intro from sabotuer..

coming from a boat in the water, jumping out, and climbing up from the water

actuallly.. much from saboteur can be find in metal gear solid =)

the stealthing, hiding behind things, guards that dont see you if you sneak
etc.

AndreasNystrom · Jul 19, 2004

in part 2, you got to use a hangglider, a motorcycle, a subway (like in first part)
and fight various things, like bats etc. guys with flamethrowers!

its got over 700 rooms if i remember it correctly.

man, its like GTA / Metal gear solid all over.. just 10-14years before =)

shibbs · Jul 19, 2004

I got the Thrill kill beta aswell, pretty fun imo. Very funny/bloody moves.

SiegfriedFM · Jul 19, 2004

Shaolin was released in Europe too. I bought a used copy and played it for a few minutes, but the RPG section was horribly slow and boring. I never even did make it to any fights...

Zer0 · Jul 19, 2004

i remember a saboteur trailer some years ago

Jumpman Jr. · Jul 19, 2004

GamePro recently had game footage of Thrill Kill (name?) on a bonus disc about Vaporware.
