Daikatana is now free on GameTap

Why Daikatana of all games for Christmas?! Why don't they give away something that needs a larger fanbase because it didn't sell so well like the PC versions of BGE or Psychonauts? Or maybe even Anachronox if it HAS to be from Ion Storm/Eidos!?

This game just won't go away.

Thanks, John.

Though, he even says that he considers Daikatana to be perfect, so in his mind, he's giving away the best gaming experience since Chrono Trigger.

But...

He's not.

Never heard of the game, what is it about?Lonelynight

it was a game hyped like no other by its creater John Romero (one of the co-founders of ID) it failed missarably in every way possible.

Pretty much, it's about a time travelling sword, and the cutscenes are so out of order that you begin to not even care anymore.

Look at those minimum requirements. My microwave can play this game. killercuts3

Didn't the dev team also made Deus Ex and the Thief series?

a different branch...Dues Ex and thief were made by the austin branch...this game was made by the dallas branch, where John Romero personally worked...he was the one who found the entire company though...even if only half of it turned out to be really good.

Well, gosh, we can like, die happy now or something.JP_Russell

i dont know why but this made me ROFL. The sarcasm, so sweet, so cynical lol :lol:

screw Daikatana, and screw Romero, that wannabe rockstar

Good luck. :) LOL

Search for the Daikatana LP on Google Video... well... just search "Daikatana" and every part of it will come up. It's hillarious. :)

"Thanks, John."

"John Romero also owes me $50."
"Why? Did you pay that much for this game?"
"NO! ARE YOU KIDDING?! I bought Bioshock to keep myself from going crazy! So, John Romero owes me money now. WHERE'S MY MONEY, JOHN?!"
