X-Blades

Ancient magic, lost treasures, sword-wielding badass chicks wearing hardly any clothes. What's not to love about X-Blades? The bad cinematic.

Watch Video

First! (And I watched it)

Gotta love the beginning, I was wondering whether they would mention the ZP episode.

After watching Graham tearing this game a new one, I wasn't sure if the quality of the game itself was going to get in the way of another funny contribution to The Escapist's growing arsenal of top-notch videos, or just ass-badger itself into the dust.

And, thank merciful God, it was the latter.

RAPID EDIT: No! No! Former! Bugger...

Once again, another great addition, especially the awkward little 'Imp' fiasco at the beginning.

Hmmm, somewhat predictable this was to be submitted.

This is just what I needed after a hard day of work, had me in stitches from the theme tune.

"Uh, should we tell her?"

Hahahaha. No, we shouldn't. And she should always lead the way.

If she's the smartest treasure hunter in her world, and that old guy staring at the skull is a normal person, then that whole world must be fucking retarded.

Ditto, what happens because she touched it?

Edit - Graham and Paul have more dialogue than the characters, I just noticed!

In contrast to the video game, this video's awesome. The game is so shitty it's like the development team had the opposite of the midas touch. Instead of turning things to gold, they turned everything they touched on the game to absolute crap.

That is alot of needless ass.

And a character you all were right about. Why does the female main character always have to seem like they eat more carpet then a malfunctioning vacuum while wearing something that contradicts this?

Also, did I just quote Yahtzee? >.>

From Wiki:
Any human being who comes in contact with the powerful stones will be horribly cursed - and the power of darkness will once again be awakened.

I think the lion needs to kill her to prevent the darkness from awakening within her. Still it's more fun to think that sphere is deadly for no other reason than the lion's will to kill anyone who touches it.

So it's fatal because you kill them?

was really expecting a "and that was the X time I died"... but kind of glad it didn't happen. Gotta save those for special occasions.

You know, if you're supposed to be a bad-ass fighter chick, you should have a voice that doesn't sound like a whiny pre-teen.

She's silent for ages and then when she talks she won't shut up...she is easy to hate...

And the fact she looks like Paris Hilton and has an annoying voice. Those things alone are reason enough to kill her.

Graham must be pretty sick of X-Blades by now.
