Pain movies

[rodahn]

Some movies I made from playing the downloadable PS3 game "Pain":

Here's me getting 4.5+ million


Here's me goofing off with "bowling" heh:


And finally here's me playing with "Santa's little helper" :P

that has to be the worst physics engine I've ever seen.

Yes, Havok is a terrible physics engine

I will say tho that the "Ooch" mechanic in the game does make it weird to watch unless you've played the game before - but without it, the game would be boring to play.

The bowling part of the game is surprisingly fun also.

I suppose you do have to play it to get the full effect of the game, but I personally love seeing the accidents that other people set up.

As for the physics, yes, the weird twitching that seems to come out of nowhere is "ooching", as Slepnir already mentioned. Basically it gives you the opportunity to continue moving to stop the timer and potentially get more points.

A nice little $10 download for the PS3.

I found the game amusing when I first got it a week or so ago, but after experimenting with it more, I've found there's a ton of little things to demolish and chain accidents off of.

Basically, the premise is that you are this person who builds a giant slingshot inside of town, in which to shoot yourself out of and cause as much mayhem and wreckage as possible.

There are different modes to the game like the mime toss (where you have to grab onto mimes in mid-air and crash them into panes of glass, or modes where you have to grab as many monkeys as possible in a short amount time). There's a multiplayer, too, where you can do things like bowling (with player two attempting to block you buy letting off explosives that send various pieces of the city at you) or a HORSE mode (like the one on one basketball game) where players set up a shot, and if you miss their original target or fail to get more points than they did, you get a letter added onto your name.

Also, there is supposedly an indoor arena level being added on later for download, and extra characters cost .99 to get. Beyond that, there are quite a few achievements to unlock that lead to other unlockables (but they're mostly just trophies).

Neat, addicting game once you really start to experiment with it.

When you present a video by saying "Here's me getting 4.5+ million" I expect something somewhat impressive............. It was a snooze fest.

I hope for your $10 you have fun, because it certainly does not look fun in the slightest. (EDIT: In your videos at least)

[rodahn]

Well, there are numerous other ways to get that high of a score (and higher). The way I did it just happened to be one of them. Since it was confined to traffic only, there was a limit to what mess I could cause.

Trust me, the game is much more fun and open to destruction than those videos may show.

Definitely worth the download if you have a PS3, especially the multiplayer.

boring. rather see highlights of worms with the banana bomb. thats always fun.

I guess they don't translate as well when they are player-made videos, instead of actually playing the game yourself.

Still recommend it as a PSN purchase, tho.
