Use your magical skills as Sparkles the wizard or your kung-fu moves as the new ninjatastic Steve. Sidekick Co-Op Mode is BACK, and it Brought A Friend: Grab a friend and choose one of two hilarious sidekicks to help save the world in co-operative couch play.All NEW Loot to Collect!: Vanquish evil using an all new array of weapons, armor, and loot spanning different eras of history.Hilarious NEW Story of EPIC Proportions: Guide DeathSpank on an all new voyage spanning massive war-torn battlefields, savage seas, and more as he hunts down magical thongs in an effort to combine their powers and create peace and harmony in the universe.Experience fast paced action-RPG combat with over 150 quests and tons of weapons, armor and loot to collect. There is also a clever hint system where you find fortune cookies lying around that can be eaten for a nudge in the right direction.Join DeathSpank in the hunt for the Thongs of Virtue! Fight through war-torn battlefields, tame the High Plains and sail the savage seas. Handy in-game tutorials have been added that will explain the ins and outs of heroism as you make your way towards the fabled thongs. Don't worry if you haven't played the first game - the episodes are self-contained and the storyline is ridiculous nonsense anyway. I prefer to do my DeathSpank questing on my own. Unfortunately, two-player mode still leaves something to be desired as both players share a health bar and player two can't use any sweet loot. Sparkles is back in Thongs of Virtue, but a second secondary hero has also been added: Steve! Steve was raised by ninjas and rides a miniature unicorn, instantly making him one of the coolest videogame characters around. The first game allowed a second player to join in at any time and control DeathSpank's sidekick, Sparkles the Wizard. You'll encounter more advanced technologies in Thongs of Virtue, such as the robots seen here. Even though I'd done this stuff before,I really didn't mind - DeathSpank is just that much fun.
Remember the spelunker who was afraid to do his own spelunking and the Thongoloth researcher who wanted you to take readings for him? There is more of that business to do here. Some of the sidequests are plucked straight from the first game. You also have a variety of explosives at your disposal such as poison and ice grenades. They're effective at taking out enemies from a distance and provide many more strategic possibilities in battle. In Thongs of Virtue you have access to machine guns, bazookas, and lasers - really fun stuff. I don't know about you, but I found the crossbows pretty ineffectual in the first game and ended up ignoring them. The new ranged weapons are a significant improvement to your arsenal. You can play with a bunch of fun new weapons and battle new enemies. Here you'll be visiting battlefields that recall World War II, the Old West, and robot factories. EA and HotHead recently announced that DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue would be releasing in late September for Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network, and I got to check the sequel out. Gone are the mostly fantasy areas of DeathSpank. While this sequel does feel very much like the original and sends you on the same sorts of quests, you will be traveling to quite different locales. Play Thongs of Virtue picks up a while after DeathSpank left off, with the hero having defeated who he thought was his arch nemesis - only to learn there are others in the circle of evil that need be brought to justice.
