We share that reaction for sure.

So like a Robot Chicken sketch that goes on for far too long?

So... a Robot Chicken sketch?

What a twist

Comedy Central seems like a strange pick for Golden Axe

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't remember many funny lines in it

I mean, I guess I can see it working like Tower of Druaga. Well, I guess Comedy Central doesn't have to make it a comedy. Would just be strange since its literally in the company name.

I'm expecting an animated show that uses the characters as props, basically like if Robot Chicken was a single setting show instead of a variety program

why

Shinobi would make a good show - hope that's next up

I'm not predicting a Fallout-tier adaptation here, but as long as I get a few giggles then go on Comedy Central.

Tons of Sega IPs are campy, it fits the bill. Personally I'd have liked a House of the Dead show. Suffer like G did? Don't mind if I do.

We've hit the bottom of the nostalgia barrel, knocked it over and started digging.
I mean, yes, I played the heck out of this game back in the day. But, I don't recall the plot or the comedy being the primary draw.
