Gentlemen, please note that Time Gentlemen, Please is now half-off

by Griffin McElroy { Nov 5th 2009 at 10:00PM }

The adventure game genre has begun to rally back into the hearts and minds of all gamerkind, largely on the backs of re-released LucasArts classics and high-minded, hand-drawn indie darlings. But let us not forget about the role played by Zombie Cow's Ben There, Dan That and its successor, Time Gentlemen, Please -- both of which reminded us that adventure games, above all else, should be irreverent and, when that fails, should be just plain incoherent.

If you skipped out on the latter game due to that completely prohibitive £2.99 (about $5) price tag, you've got a chance to redeem yourself. Speaking to Eurogamer, a Zombie Cow representative confirmed that the price of Time Gentlemen, Please has been cut down to £1.49 (call it $2.50) in an effort to make the wait for Modern Warfare 2 a bit more bearable. "So it's a humanitarian thing, really," the spokesperson explained. Just visit Zombie Cow's site, enter in the code: MW2AAAAGES, and watch the price tumble.

This is a PC release, right? "To make the wait for Modern Warfare 2 a bit more bearable?" No PC gamers are still waiting for Modern Warfare 2. A PC gamer waiting for Modern Warfare 2 is the equivalent of dropping the soap in federal prison and then seductively shaking your ass while you pick it up. You're just asking to get fucked.

a lot of PC owners have PS3s and 360s too FYI.

Great game. Bought it immediately after playing the first one (which is free). If you like old-school adventure games, you owe it to yourself to play these. They kind of play off each other too, so play "Ben There, Dan That" first (once again, it's free, you have no excuse).

Purchased!

Filthy Assistant @ Nov 6th 2009 6:34AM

Played Ben There, didn't find it that great, but I think I have like 3 dollars in my paypal account, so I'll go for this. I do like point-and-clicks.

Filthy Assistant @ Nov 6th 2009 6:35AM

Nope, 2.02. Sorry, Time Gentlemen, missed it by THAT much.

Ninjalawyer @ Nov 6th 2009 10:05AM

I know this will get me voted down but I just didn't find the first game that funny. I love poop and fart jokes as much as the next guy but the first game just seemed a little juvenile, even to me. Also, I thought the puzzles in the first game were a little too easy.

Is the second game better?
