    The most remarkable thing about this game from today's perspective is its goal: it wants to entertain you. It doesn't want to keep you playing longer than you have fun with it, it doesn't want your money, it doesn't want to establish a brand. It's like someone just wanted to tell a gigantic, hilarious, crazy, interactive joke and you can't help but laugh.

      So true, when I look bad it was just a game ppl wanted to make and did. But even now I think we don't really get many non AAA titles to show. Before we had so many gems you just randomly bought.

      @@bennybeluga1945 what he’s trying to say is the indie developers don’t usually hide half their content through extra paywalls.
      AAA games are struggling to stay in budget with the average 60 dollar price tag, so they have to have dlc and battle passes that are disingenuous most of the time (apex legends.)
      But indie games, while they have a smaller budget, can release their game at a cheaper price, and they tell a story, instead of trying to trick you into paying for in game currency.

      I think there's still space for jokes like this. Conan O'Brien made an excellent point in a tribute video for Greg Giraldo, basically that when you are objectively funny, it's not offensive. Case in point everyone loved Greg Giraldo, but everyone hated Michael Richards after he blew his cool onstage.

Me being a young lad, I found it fucking hilarious. I remember running around and shooting people wildly, mostly with the shark gun. Only recently, after about 16+ years of wondering "What the hell is the game with the shark gun called" did I rediscover this- honestly- masterpiece. First if all, I'd like to say the aside from the amazing acting, the story is actually well written. In terms of gameplay though? This game was from 2003, and has more destructible environments than most games today. And don't even get me started on the soundtrack. Solid gunplay, hilarious, random humor, it was basically Odd World- with a LOT of guns. And bombs. And sharks, occasionally. LucasArts made a damn masterpiece.
