Exciting mini-game from Double Fine News • News • Eurogamer.net

Olympic Challenge. But funny. Obv.

Funny developer Double Fine has made a new mini-game for all of you on the Internet. If you have Flash.

Team member Nathan Stapley dreamt it up and so decided to unselfishly call it My Game about Me: Olympic Challenge.

It has simple controls for people like us and is a collection of three mini-games varying from eating the right foods to staying asleep. Just pop over to the Double Fine site to give it a whirl and post your reviews below.

Last year Double Fine gave us fighting game Epic Saga to tuck into. Find it in much the same place. Again, is funny.

What else is the Psychonauts developer up to? Well, making fresh third-person action game Brutal Legend (with umlaut to aggravate search engine) for PS3 and 360. Jack Black is in it and stars as the roadie Eddie who is whisked to a fantasy world that he liberates using rock.

Looks like a corker; go to Brutal Legend gamepage to agree.

"exciting" ??? come on, Eurogamer, it's a 5/10 at best...
You want something really exciting ? Play Cursor 10 (google it if you don't know what I write about).

Better flash games online written by amateurs at home

Why not tell us about them, rather than these shocking adverts?

Both of these are complete balls, in both game and comedic sense. There are far better flash games out there that deserve the attention, unlike this shit.

Still waiting to hear the entirely rational decision to make Brutal Legend available on PC. Remember where you got your rabid fan base Schafer!

I don't know why people get so uptight over a bit of fun.

I would probably be held up and crucified if I were to point out that both of these 'games' are quite silly (not in a good way), pointless and far from funny. They look and play like something someone whipped up in a spare hour or two and are far from Double Fine's usual, Psychonauts-level standards. So I won't point that out. I'll just take this news piece as shameless advertising. Don't know who to bother about the 10 minutes of my life lost while playing these utterly pointless little 'games' and writing this complaint. Probably EuroGod.
