505 Games unleashing a Naughty Bear on PS3 and Xbox 360

by JC Fletcher on Dec 9th 2009 12:00PM

click for bear-size505 Games just announced a new game from Wet developer Artificial Mind and Movement -- and the protagonist is, well, artificial. Naughty Bear is pretty much exactly what we expected when we saw the trademark filed by A2M: a violent action game starring an animated, stuffed bear. Specifically, a stuffed bear who swears revenge on other jerk bears for failing to invite him to a party.

The goal in Naughty Bear is to scare, irritate, and, of course, hurt the other bears, racking up "Naughty Points" as you do and using weapons strewn about the game's 30 stages. The game will dole out more Naughty Points in response to more "deviant and maniacal" tactics. From the description, it sounds like Manhunt with teddy bears. It's going to be a polyester stuffing-bath.

I need to see this bear in motion. If he moves like Teddy in AI, I'll buy it day one.

How appropriate. A Conker avatar.

How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

Same here. There's something truly intriguing by that model. I can picture him moving and acting in a game, but I'd love some more screenshots.

I swear, I've heard this plot in a Yogi the Bear game.

I would still rather a Conker sequel.

An honest one this time, exclusively on the N64.

That bear has some demons. Those cold eyes. Maybe he'll be the main nemesis of Dexter in the next season of that show. Jimmy Smits, John Lithgow, and now, evil bear.

Naughy Bear vs Naughy Dog?

Naughty*

No. Naughty Dog would rip the stuffing out of that thing with it's pit bull jaws...

For some reason, this is making me think of old Paddingtion Bear videos, but with more violence. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

What about Teddy Ruxpin?

Teddy Ruxpin was and is a cyborg so he doesn't count.

hmm. WET was an crap action game that just screamed "PS2" but was on PS3. I hope they do better with Naughty Bear

All I have to say is, creepy.

Sweet thank you for my new desktop background.

"The goal in Naughty Bear is to scare, irritate, and, of course, hurt the other bears"

What about 12 year old girls?

Well well well..... i see they finally took my suggestion, after 13,124 postcards sent.

hopefully they learn from Fairytale Fights about what not to do...i hope they don't expect the game to make itself based on the concept of having something cute and cuddly use weapons.

haha A2M. fitting.

My judgemental side wants to call you a perv, but my perverted side is giggling too much to do so.

whats with the giant search box?

Looks like Joystiq is going through a transformation. It's not just the search bar that's changed, although everything below the header is still the same.

i already see an error. when you click on PlayStation it goes to
http://www.joystiq.com/http://playstation.joystiq.com

Looks like they're leaving out a PC tag on top. Joystiq haet PC.

So is this a Conker for the new generation?

Also...where're the platformers on the current-gen systems. I know we had Rachet and Clank and maybe a Crash Bandicoot (how the mighty have fallen), but what else?

The obvious LittleBigPlanet. Kameo was fantastic despite its atrocious controls. Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is one of my favorite games of this gen, and is still definitely a platformer despite the focus of the game brought to vehicles. 'Splosion Man and N+ on XBLA too. Prince of Persia and Mirror's Edge can fall into the category, both amazing games.

Super Mario Galaxy on Wii is arguably the best of the bunch despite the plodding story you have to sit through, and New Super Mario Bros. Wii is easilly the most fun game I've played all year. That's all I've got...

Do the Simpsons game and the Lego whatever games count?

There's a ton of great platformers, they're just out of the glaring spotlight of FPS madness that seems to have taken over the industry.

Just on the Wii, there's A Boy and His Blob, Klonoa, NSMBWii, MegaMan 9, De Blob, Wario Land Shake It, Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Galaxy, Lost Winds, Cave Story, even the Subspace Emissary in SSBB could be considered a platformer.

I've got a feeling there's plenty more, but enough lists. :)

this bear is un-cute.... :(

You were expecting maybe the Care Bears?

I wonder if Kanye West is going to do the soundtrack for this...he likes bears

I thought he liked fish

Is he a gay bear?

Lol.....I meant he always has a bear on his album cover....and even in a few of his videos....

He is the voice of a generation but not this one.

Why so angry?! Damn that rap music!

I got excited at first thinking this may be based on the Boom! Studios comic Mr. Stuffins :(

These ultra-violent games with 'cute' settings (Fairytale Fights I'm looking at you) don't really appeal to me.

It's kinda like putting an eyeball in your ice cream.

Sure, it may be funny, but in the end it's disgusting to eat, and ruins perfectly good ice cream.

...Unless you enjoy eating eyeballs and ice cream.

What a strange analogy to choose.

If by "strange" you do in fact mean "spot-on and completely neccessary", than yes. Yes it is.

Does anyone else feel that they're totally trying to copy the other Naughty Bear, Gloomy? http://www.chax.cc/main.html?en

I just noticed he changed it to Naughty Grizzly now.

So is this Teddy Ruxpin with a built in flesh light ?

eeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Teddybear 3000!! ^_^

Cue the anti-gamer, and Jack Thompson wannabes complaing this game will be aimed at children and it will using cute but evil Teddy Bear to corrupt the children in 3...2...1.

I've seen a trailer for this game when they were shopping it around, and it's like GTA/Conkers, but with bears. It actually looked pretty hilarious. Bears shooting people, cutting heads, and swearing.

Pedobear finaly gets to star in his own video game. About time.
Pedobear Approved

bahhh i wanted to say this XD
