WHIPLASH! "whi-cha!"

Has anyone heard of this new game called Whiplash? I know all about it, but I don't feel like typing right now, so just look it up... draw we conclusions you will.


info: genetically altered weasel is handcuffed to gen-alted rabbit. You play as the flamable wease who can swing his indistructable buddy all over to get out of the animal testing lab.

I haven't heard of the game, but it seems this thread is best suited for Off Topic, not GD.

Never heard of it before.

Anyways this was an honest mistake placing it here, and Im sure Xav will gladly move it.

And also, welcome back Sal. I havent seen you around here in a long time.

Yeah, I've heard of it. But from what I've heard, the story is somewhat of a ripoff of MO, with the labs, animal testing, escaping, and all.

Never heard of the game either. Is it another "Banjo-Kazooie" clone?

I thought the same as that person who stated it before me about it being a copy of MO. But it sounds good...and looks good aswell.

I saw some in game video...looks fun.

Really fun.

As for it being an MO rip-off...Please, do me a favor, and go choke on something.

MO was loosely based on animal testing, and wow, you play a whopping...ONE stage in an animal testing facility.

This game, apparently, is entirely set in a research lab. Except you are a weasel. Chained to a rabbit.

Oh yeah, I can definitely see the Oddworld relation.

Moron.

I always thought that Whiplash was an old Metallica song. LOL

Anyways, I haven't heard of this game either. Sounds interesting. Although as usually happens I probably won't play it. Too many games, too little time.

Jesus, SORRY.

I the article I read stated that it was escaping from animal testing, and showed a bunch of screenshots from that one level. That's all. Why'd you get so damn defensive over that tiny comment?

That's what they all say. Then its "I haven't done it before. I'm sorry...you got me at a bad moment...you ran into my fist...i'll never do it again." and then soon it happens again...and the same things are said...its such a vicious, vicious cycle...

Wow, isn't it also a neck injury you usually get in car crashes?
