TyGuy22 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 There are no achievements for this nearly 2 GB add-on. The entire piece is a live-action B movie shoot out that plays somewhat similar to the light gun arcade cabinet games like Area 51 and Virtua Cop with a Jack Black "Be Kind Rewind" self-made home movie blockbuster style. You play a series of scenes where you must quick draw a shot on enemies before they get the drop on you. Most of the encounters are you vs a single actor at a time. Even sections where there are more than one enemy on the screen you only fight/shoot at them one at a time. The challenge (if any exits) comes from not shooting innocents. The acting is laughably bad and the script is even worse, but it does have that Twisted Pixel charm that makes you believe they grabbed a couple of handi-cams from the studio and put the entire thing together over a weekend trip just to blow off some steam.

TyGuy22 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hmm... well... it's free. It certainly isn't going to be a game changer. It is unique in that the entire thing is live action footage that you interact with. It is entertaining to play through once, just for the Twisted Pixel style of humor and jokes. The home made backyard quality does give it its' charm and immediately tells you not to take the add-on seriously, ... at all. Basically, if you would of had to pay for this a lot of people would be VERY upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrinst Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Its free so thats a bonus in itself. Getting it tonight, sucks that there is no achievements though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTwen Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Where do you actually find this mode in the game after downloading it? main menu => Download Content. (how can you miss it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastx Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) The Download Content menu seems to just have a button to redownload the file at top-left and another button at bottom-right to view all DLC (trailers, etc.). I'm specifically looking for how to launch the DLC once I have downloaded it. UPDATE: The file hadn't downloaded correctly. Downloading it again now.

MBCPeanut Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 This DLC is amazing. It's almost insane how accurately they pull off some of the Mad Dog McCree-style corn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like someones never played Mad Dog McCree. It's closer to that than any of the games you mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you able to launch it? I've downloaded it twice now, but it's still only giving me the redownload option when I hover over the button.

Now when I go to the Downloadable Content menu in the game, there's a button for launching The Wavy Tube Man Chronicles that wasn't there before.

Baihu1983 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Yeah its good fun and hopefully proof that games like House of the dead and Virtua Cop should come to Kinect. Either put all HOTD games and VC games on disc or release them over XBLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
