   For me, this and its sequel are some of the best arcade games available. I have no complaints other than it can get stale after a while, all of the quests can feel like the same thing over and over. However, the humor in this game is spot on, the game play is fluid, and the characters are most certainly memorable. Definitely worth a purchase, one of the 1200 MS purchases I have not regretted.… Expand

   I don't see how anyone gives this game a zero. Is it easy? Yes It it the best RPG out there? Of course not. Is it fun? Yes. This is a great game to just goof off in. It makes fun of RPG's without totally taking you of the fun of playing it. Someone not naming names(GG) stated that the grinder gets tedious. Even if you had to get rid of 30 items you could grind them all in less then a minute and a half. How many times have we played games where we had to kill creatures that had done no harm to us for over five hours just to level. Me thinks GG is new to RPG's otherwise he could find something better to whine about. Look I will give you some reasons to play the game and some reasons not too. Reasons not too include short game. You can be finished in less then five hours. Armor selection. Once you reach a high level there is one armor(Dragon). Crossbows, only a few decent ones in game. Side Quest most side quest in the game are very simple. Dumb Humor this game is full of Airplane/SpaceBalls/Naked Gun humor. It is all better then (Insert Wayan's Brother's movie Here). While I put those as reasons not to play in truth those were some reasons I was excited about getting into the game. Reasons to play Fun, It is like going to the movies Sometimes you just want to enjoy and not have to think like crazy. Artistic , how many other games do you have to collect Unicorn Poop? Coop has been wonderful. My wife basically makes it her job to not get hit and continue healing me. She has fun and I have fun. This game was not designed to be Oblivion or Dragon Age it was designed to be quick easy fun. Is it the best game you will ever play? no Is it worth it for only $15.00 HECK YEA P.S. Don't listen to grumpy cause he's grumpy.… Expand

   DeathSpank is painfully average. The graphics are nice and the dialogue can be funny. However the gameplay is just way too monotonous. Even the story missions force you to grind. You'll always be changing weapons and most weapons have a special unique skill. This would be nice if you could choose to use these skills when you need to and not whenever you press the attack button. It's flawed, but it's opened the door for a hopefully better sequel.… Expand

   Why is it that you guys have framerate problems on a low rez game with no to little network req's (acchievement and leaderboard- that�39;s it)? The inventory req to drag over the grinder? Cute at first, then tedious (how bout an autogrind?); or what about the Special Quest weapon you earn at the end, being weaker than all the other top tier weapons in the arsenal you can purchase? Potions that last one second, powerups that don't move with the character- I could blather on about the super weak. C'mon designers!- and then there is getting caught up on all kinds of collision in the levels... You really should really take the time to optimize user experience, make sure there is some logic inserted behind applications of story and design (even in something this inane) and clean up any technical issues BEFORE you ship- I mean, you guys had YEARS. It's the difference between competent development and just get-er done mentality. You had an oportunity for greatness here- why choose anything less? Hrrumph.… Expand
