"Shadow may be able to gnaw off a mansnake quicker than a human can remove the wrapper from a Cheestring"

Ellie +1 made me laugh.

I got to the kiss bit and stopped reading. These guys are crazy.

Was interested in this when i read the Edge preview..

...then saw it at E3 and became less interested...

...now slightly interested again...if it plays well that's what matteres but it looked dog rough (pardon the pun) at E3

Does anyone really want to see dogs ripping off people's genitals?

I know I don't.

"who wouldn't want to watch a remake where Hooch devours a drug dealer's genitals before getting off with Tom Hanks"

sounds like the basis for a yiffing fetish gay porn version to me...

"According to Jele, the idea is to exploit humans' natural affection for dogs"

I hate dogs. Distemper to the lot of them.

Shadow, bringing new meaning to teabagging

@BillyBrush

My thoughts exactly, the e3 clip looked like an xboxoriginal and clearly stood out as a more fuzzy less hd crisp game as the competition with nothing spectacular to show for it.

Still slightly interested though.

Love "The Little Hobo" joke.

Testikill has just replaced Wargasm as the most hilariously inappropriate game word ever. Add DogSnog and you're there.

I do wish Gibson would stop trying so hard to be funny - I find myself deliberately avoiding the last 7 words of every paragraph she writes.

I've got to say, my optimism for this game is not high.

Hang on. I thought the focus of the game was to push the hand-to-hand combat. Now it's shifted to the dog?! Are these guys saying that the game is essentially a guard dog sim with a character brawler tacked on? Based at the show at E3 it certainly looked that way!

Dogs are annoying. I want a game where I can beat one to death and eat it. It could be set in China!

oh dear. i didnt realise cliched (sp?) rubbish like this was still being made. Its like the devs are still stuck in a "violence sells!" way of thinking. If the best they can come up with is being able to jump a fence and kick someone at the same time, then i'll be avoiding this like the black death.

Um... it's always had the dog as a big focus, its never 'shifted'. Read all the articles on EG for starters.

....but violence does sell...also sex...also drug references, because drugs are cool

the whole 'dog tearing off mans scrote' thing is basically the part of the preview that's selling me on maybe checking the game out...if the dog actually bit heads off...then i'd preorder

Surely dogs in games has been done to death now? How about some different animals? Parakeets or tortoises or duck billed platypus?

The E3 footage looks ropey, but it's a ways off.

who cares if it doesn't look like gears, as long as it's fun?

You guys remember that, right? Fun?
