What's Happening

Replay – Darkwatch

Before Highmoon Studios was tackling licenses like The Transformers and Deadpool, it created a new IP about a vampiric cowboy with a thirst for blood and murder. We saddled up this 2005 original Xbox title to see how she looks after all these years, and we were surprised by what we found.

Join Joe Juba, Andrew Reiner, Kyle Hilliard, and myself as we blast our way through hordes of nightmarish creatures and fail spectacularly at riding a horse. Stick around for our second segment, which is an exciting new addition to Replay.

  • Oh, wow. I totally remember this game. I *think* it was kind of awesome at the time. I really like the idea for the second segment! I remember watching someone on YouTube by the name of Kikoskia trying to get through that tunnel with someone and it was pretty brilliant. XD
  • A video game with a vampiric cowboy with a thirst for blood and murder? High Moon, make a sequel (yes, i'm aware it won't happen, but c'mon! vampire cowboys? You're lying if you say you wouldn't buy it). And more stress test, please; that was most excellent.

  • Darkwatch actually looks pretty good. Guess I'll get it someday.
  • The old mech game known as G-Nome. I had to use cheats to beat, like, the 4th mission.... 'twas hard.

  • I like this new segment. Stress Test. For games you should do one of the Ninja Gaiden games or Devil May Cry 3
  • Stress Test Ideas:

    1. Adventures of Bayou Billy -NES (especially driving levels) - Helgeson

    2. Silver Surfer - Reeves/Reiner

    3. Megaman X6 - Gates Laboratory - Turi/Helgeson

    4. Super Mario Brothers - Lost Levels - D4 - Cork/Fava

    5. Duke Nukem - Just have Joe play any of them as they may be his own personal hell.

  • Very impressive Tim, you know how to keep your cool.  We need more Stress Tests!

  • Hoping that the next Stress Test will break someone.

    Dan is the prime candidate.

  • Darkwatch was the first shooter I ever owned. I remember it fondly, probably because it was also the first M game I ever owned.

  • You guys should do some of the secondary missions from Soul Caliber 2.The one you play through after you beat Weapon Master for the first time.There's one mission where you're fighting the two weapon who wield swords and shields and the only way to be them is to get a ring out on both of them.They have insanely high health,do big damage,and the ring your in has doesn't a barrier to keep you from falling off.It's a real pain in the ass.

  • Love the new second segment, dot worry i wont spoil it

  • I approve.

  • I liked Darkwatch.

  • The worst cover GI has done in recent memory was Rainbow 6 Patriots. Yes, it looked awesome, but it may now be completely inaccurate. For all we know, the game will involve furby.

    BUT, I know it isn't your fault, GI. I feel the pain I am sure at least one of you felt when Ubisoft cleaned house. I am ready for a truly Mature game.
  • By the way: Stress Test was great! That is an aspect of gaming I have forgotten about in today's, "You seem to be having trouble. Lower difficulty?" gaming world.

  • Tim was never going to quit, to much determInation. Stress test is an awesome idea

  • YES the second segment was awesome, Tim owned that level

  • Hey guys, i liked the stress test segment! If you really want a challenge try the Olga boss fight in MGS2 on Euro-extreme. Or maybe have Kyle play Devil May Cry 3 and try to beat Virgil since he says he didn't beat it.
  • That was incredible guys! I was cringing at that last strip of obstacles and I literally applauded you, Tim.
