Wow, I can't believe Dark Void didn't just fly off the shelves.
Capcom was probably the worst offender, but Hudson made Bomberman dark, gritty and shitty with Act Zero and Namco made Ace Combat: Assault Horizon with QTEs and a NATO bootlicking plot, and gave Ridge Racer to FlatOut developers Bugbear to turn into a Burnout ripoff with Unbounded. Many such cases!
It is on PC, you have to
since it got delisted and had GFWL anyway, but it's a worthwhile venture. It's also on PS3 and 360(better version) fwiw. Also also it had a DS/PC spinoff, a nonlinear exploratory platformer called Dark Void Zero which is cute.
ARRRRR comrade-atey!
I'll look into the 360 emu and pc torrent. Thanks for the info!
