Eminem's Bad Court Date
Synopsis:
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? Okay, will somebody please take the handcuffs off? If you simply can't wait for Eminem to divorce you then you can get this rap-centric dating simulator. Play Eminem on an adventure to find the finest girl in the world, marry her, bed her, and then rip her life to pieces. Then if you can get out of spousal abuse charges, cheating allegations, and other immoral acts, then you might stand a chance in the face off with drinking buddy Tommy Lee!!
Reality:
Eminem is writing music, filming a movie, and staying out of trouble. But this game could put him back in the spot light . if only it would see the light of day. This really could be the last great game for the Nintendo 64. But instead Rare will work on something safer, something with less edge. Well, perhaps that's for the best.
You Don't Know Jack
Synopsis:
Jellyvision presents the game we've all been waiting for! Find out what you DO and DO NOT know about California Congressman Gary Condit in this fun Party game. Drinking jokes, sexual innuendos, and Dis and Dat, if you like You Don't Know Jack you're going to LOVE You Don't Know Jack about Condit!! You can even Screw Your Neighbor (but not the intern, I'm sorry to say). You'll want to pick this up before you've forgotten everything about this public official.
Reality:
After months of endless media coverage, speculation, and rumors we don't know much more about Congressman Condit than we did a year ago. Not only is Condit running for reelection, but may actually win his district. There are a lot of things we weren't expecting the last half of 2001 to bring, and Gary Condit is possibly the ONLY winner in that period. Nothing takes the news away from a sex scandal like a terrorist act against the United States!!
Where In the World is Osama?
Synopsis:
Have you been watching your television and shouted "hey, I bet I could find this guy faster than our army, secret service, and intelligence"? Do you think you know how to find the worlds most notorious killer since Hitler?? Do you think you can do it without the help of air strikes? Well, then Parker Brothers has an Xbox game for you!! It's WHERE IN THE WORLD IS OSAMA, a text based adventure game for Microsoft's super computer!! See glorious text with the 128 bit engine, see "O", "P", and "S" come to life in with polygon graphics, without jaggies or ridges!
Reality:
Now that the Taliban has fallen, Afghanistan has a new government, and people aren't that worried about future terrorists strikes, it's time to track down Osama bin Laden. Of course, this probably won't help your sleuthing abilities, but can you just imagine it? I suppose Osama bin Laden is too current to put in games, but perhaps decades from now we will see him in movies, games, and the like. Who knows, I've seen Hitler in one or two games.
XFL
Synopsis:
I know, here's a game that CAN'T fail. It's like EXTREME Football, and it has wrestling dramatics (thanks to WWF head Vince McMahon)! It has ex hooker, ex stripper cheerleaders, and Jesse "the Body" Ventura doing commentary!! How can this go wrong? And the game, well, it would throw away a lot of the rules, it would be exciting, more like an arcade game. This game can't fail!!
Reality:
Of course, this sounds almost exactly like the NFL Blitz series, but that's life, I suppose. In the real world the XFL only went down in ratings, losing some $2 million per episode. NBC also became the laughing stock of the other networks, and even though the franchise was signed for two years, NBC has chosen not to run them. On a side note, the NBC Studios Store is selling Official XFL merchandise for full price still.
