House of the Dead: Overkill has most swearing ever

by Justin McElroy { Mar 16th 2009 at 8:30AM }

Well, f**k yeah! Though it may not be the sales record we were hoping for, the absolutely G** ***n awesome House of the Dead: Overkill has made it to the top of a list. It's just been honored by Guinness World Records as having the most profanity of any game ever. 189 "f**ks". Count 'em.

Here's hoping some of you mother f*****g sons of b*****s actually get out there and buy the G** ***n game for f**k's sake. So p****ing help us, if that r***er isn't on the j**ing sales chart, we're going to take a giant n***b all over you faces. El S****, if you will.

Really, more than Mad World?

esposch @ Mar 17th 2009 2:01AM

PENIS!

MowDownJoe @ Mar 16th 2009 8:40AM

I couldn't ****in' read the **** article. You censored every other ****in' word.

Ghen @ Mar 16th 2009 8:42AM

well fuck.

Ahmedz @ Mar 16th 2009 8:43AM

Fuck Yeah!

"Though it may not be the sales record we were hoping for,"

This isnt going to die is it? Its selling fine, you have to remember that the wii has changed how games sell - instead of big sales then huge dip, they start off solid and stay solid.

Mr Khan @ Mar 16th 2009 11:40AM

Why was this voted down? Its true. Many of the Wii's 3rd party million-sellers have embarrassing first-week numbers (like Call of Duty: W@W, which is now platinum, but started off with a pathetic 14k)

Its all about word-of-mouth, really.

F1 @ Mar 16th 2009 8:44AM

Head cheese anyone?

rcf1105 @ Mar 16th 2009 8:45AM

Really? More than Grand Theft Auto 4?

HazyCloud @ Mar 16th 2009 9:01AM

I was thinking Kane and Lynch: Dead Man.

The Baron @ Mar 16th 2009 12:26PM

Yeah, couldn't you bump it up to more than 180 by allowing yourself to just repeatedly get hit by cars?

Triscuit @ Mar 16th 2009 12:40PM

Um, I think the record is for scripted swears, most likely. In GTA and such, getting hit by cars and swearing is just a programmed reaction, not a scripted event.

Sol @ Mar 16th 2009 8:46AM

I thought it was funny, like a parody of dialogue in Quentin Tarantino movies.

Have the game's sales figures been disappointing?

NoughtSoClever @ Mar 16th 2009 9:54AM

Is this game any good? Back in the day, I thought the the game play was fine, but the terrible Japanese translations and poor voice acting killed it for me on the Dreamcast. I'm talking about gems such as this.

Woman running from zombie: "No! Don't come!"

Yeah...that's what she said.

BPMOmega [gamertag] @ Mar 17th 2009 3:26PM

Well, this is a British-developed HotD, so Japanese translations shouldn't be an issue. :P

jukeboxsabotage @ Mar 17th 2009 8:44PM

Are you sure that wasn't just a line from Left4Head?

baby sea tuna @ Mar 16th 2009 8:50AM

Drop the c*** s***kin price $10-$15 and I'll sisterf***in buy it.

mafafu @ Mar 16th 2009 8:53AM

I guess they have not played the new 50 cent game

Dr. @ Mar 16th 2009 9:00AM

FIRE IN THE MOTHAFUCKIN HOLE!

The Baron @ Mar 16th 2009 12:27PM

This is 50, bitch

Vegnagun bwf @ Mar 16th 2009 2:44PM

Grenade, bitches!

Megadanxzero @ Mar 16th 2009 8:59AM

G** ***n? In fact... I didn't understand half of that...

BobTheElephant @ Mar 16th 2009 9:22AM

god damn

but, agreed, that was kinda rough to read...

Premature ejaculation man @ Mar 16th 2009 9:28AM

ooooh. For some reason I assumed gun (that word sometimes is censored on the radio)

The Dark Wayne @ Mar 16th 2009 11:00AM

the first thing that came to mind for me was grape nuts.
I dont know why either

Megadanxzero @ Mar 16th 2009 5:16PM

How the fuck is Goddamn swearing? Also, it's one word...

Misfit Toy @ Mar 16th 2009 9:17AM

This web page is filled with shock and awe.

John Z @ Mar 16th 2009 9:19AM

It's a really f***ing good game. I pity the b**** *q** *w****** ** ******** * doesn't ** pl*y it.

I'm pretty fucking sure its some gat dayum bleeped words in there that I dont know what in the blue fuck they are

I Like Corn @ Mar 16th 2009 9:25AM

Okay, are you just making shit up halfway through? Because I'm an adult and I can't read half of this post.

And at least we can say this game really does live up to its name. Might pick it up sometime. Too bad my "I'm gonna get it 'cause it's got a lot of swearing and blood and that'll make me MATURE" phase died out ten years ago.
