The Guy Game

"No One Ever Said They Wanted To Be On The Game Guy When They Grew Up"

Usually I start off my reviews with something either humorous or semi-insightful. However considering the game I am reviewing I can honestly say that I am completely out of any of things to say. The Guy Game is one of those games that takes something people generally like (topless women and adult language) and somehow perverts it into something terrible.

The most important thing I can say is that if you are a parent trying to decide if you want to get this game for your child. DO NOT! This game has quite a bit of profanity, sexually explicit language, oh yea and it has a bunch of topless women in it. That's right a Playstation game and nudity, who would of thunk it.

The Guy Game is basically a way for young people to see naked women and college guys who are tired of playing Madden to have something to do. The game is basically a trivia/guessing game that was made for dorm parties. First of all the game is for 1-4 players. When more than one player plays each person is given a rank: President, Vice President, ect. The President sets up certain rules. These rules are to be enforced by the President and are a little odd. Rules include but are not limited to: A player must ask the President before going pee and No one may say “the.” Anyone who breaks the rules is suppose to be punished by the President. What punishments are there you maybe wondering…well whatever you want because the game doesn't punish you actually the whole part about punishment isn't even in the game. You can tell them to go do 50 jumping jacks or lick the couch, because that'll be the only punishment. This maybe great for a drinking game or some weird college party, but makes no sense overall. As for the game itself. It is split up into three different sections. In the first section 3 girls are asked different trivia questions, this question you must also answer for a chance to get $$$. After you answer and before she does you'll have to guess if she got it right or wrong. If the woman or women guess wrong then they have to flash. If you choose correctly you'll get bonus points. These bonus points will go towards filling up a meter. As this meter fills up you'll be able to see more and more of these women. At first there will be a large bar over their exposed area's that says The Guy Game. If you make it to the next part up they'll just have it pixilated. And if you finally get to the last part of the bar all the censors are removed and you'll be able to see all the women just fine.

As for the Second round of the game you'll have the option to play a Ballz game. They are 3 different mini games that has you either trying to use a ball to keep a ball on the board, trying to knock a bunch of ballz off the board, or trying to roll your ball into a hole. This section is probably the best done out of the entire game. The graphics are top notch and the physics are pretty well done

Finally in the third round they mix it up a bit. First like in the first round they'll ask a question and you and the woman must answer it and you'll get money if you are right. The difference comes because all the women have answered incorrectly and you'll have to guess which one of the incorrect answers is the one they chose.

Also there is basically a fourth round. It's not really a round but just a video and you make a bet. All three women basically compete in a game where a lot of jumping or bouncing occurs while they are topless. You bet on who wins and if you are right you get extra $$$ and if you have enough cash left over ($2k) then you'll see a striptease at the end of the game. There are 5 sets of 4 episodes and several unlockable movies to keep you busy.

OVERALL

This game pretty much falls flat. This game requires no skill and you'll be able to quickly unlock the entire game in no time leaving you with just softcore porn. I think this is the only time in my life where I really didn't care about seeing a woman naked. The game is so absolutely pathetic. It's completely ignorant and lacks any sort of imagination. The nudity lasts only a couple of seconds and is the only reason to pick up this title at all. Older people can simply buy naughty movies from their local “specialty” store or ebay and get a lot more out of it than they could from this game. This game makes me ashamed to be a human being and I actually sometimes wonder where are these girls' parents. Ok, maybe not but still this game is terrible and should not be bought under any stretch of the imagination. If you really need a game that gives you gameplay and hooters then go for BMX XXX.
