I am going to be giving you my impressions and opinions on Deathspank: Thongs of Virtue. Deathspank: Thongs of Virtue is a DLC title for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 made by Hothead Games(creators of Monkey Island) it is a hack and slash RPG adventure game. Thongs of Virtue takes place after the first game titled Deathspank. We find Deathspank our hero to the down trodden, dispenser of justice, and vanquisher of evil imprisoned in a P.O.W. camp pealing a mountain of potatoes. You team up wit the other captives in the P.O.W. camp to try to escape. You have to dress us like an ogre to fool the guards and escape. Once you escape you find yourself facing off against the first boss of the game. Once you beat the boss you run into the read haired woman Sandy you tells you the origin of the thongs and who the wearers are so that you can defeat them and retrieve their thongs and save the world. The wearers of the thongs are a nun, a chef, and Santa Clause himself, yes you have to kill Santa. Like the first game the combat has stayed the same except now you can have a friend use a second controller to join you on your quest. The humor in the game is heuristically amusing. I don't think I made it through dialogue with the NPCs without laughing. You meet up with a prostitute with a heart of gold offering her services to soldiers for only $1 which is just her dressing up in weird costumes. But really her heart is made of sold gold. The funniest line from the game to me would have to be "I don't think anyone as disturbed you inner chamber for a long time which is why you probably became a nun.". I would highly recommend this game if you enjoy hack and slash RPGs or subtle dirty humor.
The trailer really helps me visualize the game. Great addition.
