Read the review and then watch that video (second link). Video sums it up very nicely.

.... I am reminded of Extreme Paintbrawl. I remember a specific quote from PCGamer's review: ... "The AI would do the moonwalk while shooting paintballs from their butt." ... cracked up so hard.. :rolleyes:

I'm sure I'd like to pick up a copy of this game. (For free.) The ability to drive through mountains and well all over the entire course freely would be interesting to see. .. Wow. Thanks for showing this to us, Warlock. :)

yeah alex was pretty pissed off and laughing hard at the same time. It's fun testing out bad games and glitching them. I did that to Rally Cross 2 and Need For Speed online. Cracked up so hard.

Heh, I remember Extreme Paintbrawl.. I wish I had a copy of that PC Gamer review, it was hilarious.. "System Requirements: A store with a forgiving return policy" :D hahaha..

Heh. If I find a copy of it, I'll try to type it up for you. ;) Sure, anytime. .. Um.. Okay. Here (http://www.pcgamer.com/reviews/archives/review_2004-04-01.html)'s the review. I think it's the same review, as the red box on the bottom I remember being precisely the same. However, I can't seem to find the reference to butt-paintballing. EDIT: Wait, I found them.
These fellows run in circles, bump into each other, jump off cliffs, hump the walls, and moonwalk while shooting paintballs from their butt... A delight, every time. :cool:

I know IGN had a pretty good review of Extreme Paintbrawl. It was pretty funny. I almost wanted to pick it up after that just to see how bad it truly was.

The really sad part is that Extreme Paintbrawl went on to several sequels. Will Big Rigs 2 see the light of day as well?

*shudder*

As for the ?online? component, I?m sure the network modes in Paintbrawl would be very exciting if the programmers had actually remembered to make them work. You can host a game over an IPX network, but the dialog box won?t let you actually connect to someone else?s game. This means that you can play over a network, just not with each other.
I found this exceedingly hilarious. How can you release a game like this? Didn't anyone ever try to play an online game? Did they test the game at all?

Omg. That has got to be THE worst game ever. The box has one thing on it that was correct, "Get ready for non-stop driving action!". I don't even think that are breakes in the game. THe truck continued to move even when the guy left the computer.

The most hilarious part is when the truck is spinning. It gets faster, faster, faster... then he presses the brakes and it just stops. LMAO
