1UP writes: "Kenny vs. Spenny, based on the live-action TV comedy with a minor cult following in Canada, lets you compete in three super-simple minigames to determine the victor of utterly useless and demeaning contests. It's all a bit lowbrow, and kind of gross, but it's supposed to be funny.
Similar to the TV show-turned-game Jackass, humiliation is a recurring theme in Kenny vs. Spenny. Losing (or winning) these challenges subjects you to an image of the characters shoving a rat in their underwear, or eating sushi off each other's behinds. The games themselves are based on episodes from the TV show. In a test of speed, you race rats by moving left and right, gathering cheese while avoiding mousetraps. For a contest of strength, you have to demolish a stack of wooden blocks using nothing more than your crotch. And in an endurance challenge, you must wear a dead octopus on your head, while health-impairing happy faces rain down from above. Don't expect these minigames to make a ton of sense unless you're a die-hard fan of the show, in which case you'll probably appreciate a few of the in-jokes".
Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.
Hahaha...Kenny vs Spenny is the best
I'm sure this will expand the industry. I shutter at the thought of this game.
I like the Kenny vs. Spenny show, but this game just looks horrible.
I've been saying this for a while, but imagine a Trailer Park Boys (another Canadian comedy show, FYI) video game? They could pretty much make anything in there into a mission.
Stop the bottle kids,
Help protect the hashish driveway from Lahey,
Frame Cyrus to get him back in jail,
Clear out all of Ricky's dad's piss jugs from the park before the TV crew shows up to tape their show,
etc. etc. etc.
*Fair warning.. bad language in the video*
Why on earth is this show getting a game
This looks almost as bad as the Napoleon Dynamite game
