Tara and I went to GameStop yesterday to pick up a gift card for my mother as it’s her birthday real soon. The original plan was to find her a new Nintendo DS game, but she seems to buy more games than I do, and I have to admit to losing track of what she has in her collection versus what she used to have, but traded in. So…a GC it was. That way, she can pick what she wants, and I do believe a yardsale hidden objects game comes out on her very day of birth…so there we go. Though Tara and I did see a hidden objects game all about planning one’s perfect wedding:
Oh man. Doesn’t that look exciting?! We thought this would be hilarious to give to her, but I told Tara that I didn’t think I could physically carry the case over to the counter and then pay money for it. Maybe next time? Most likely not.
Also, while perusing the shelves of old Xbox games (they had a deal of buy one, get two free, but I didn’t buy anything as I really have no clue what games are backwards compatible on the Xbox 360), a title caught my attention. And made me laugh. Out loud. In front of total strangers. Now, these games were lined up like books, spine out, so all I had to go off of was the title alone, but man did it make me pick up the game. Are you ready? I don’t think you’re ready for it.
…
What? You’re dying to know? Hmm…
Okay, okay. Here it is:
Ah ahahahahaha. Crusty Demons.
Sadly, this was not a videogame about a fantasy land dastardly overrun by…crusty demons. Instead, it’s about–I guess–some people riding bikes and doing daredevil-like tricks. What a tease!
In short, some videogame covers are just plain silly.
Grinding Down 
Haha, ohhh man. That’s just silly 🙂 What was the other one that we saw that had to do with golf?? there was no cover for it but it definitely stood out.. Hmmm, hopefully it will come back to us! Hmmmmm…
I don’t remember the golf one, but now something about a game to help you study for the SATs comes to mind. Oh boy!
I think you may be thinking of outlaw golf? In that you beat the crap out of your caddy for power ups, whereas crusty Demons the goal is to thoroughly beat the crap out of yourself. They are actually very good games.
