I assume you've heard of this game.
Warning: Lots of violent shit going on here.
Well, story is: This game was being developed by Paradox in the late '90s, and it was almost all set to release, but Electronic Arts (yeah, EA Games) bought Virgin Interactive (the publisher) and they thought that this game was too nasty to being related to them. So basically they shut it down.
From what I know, the delivered copies were 'sold' and the developers leaked some versions of the game into the internet. That's what I heard.
Let's talk about the game. It was a 3D fighting game involving combats between four characters at the same time. They build up some power bar by attacking the others, and when someone reaches its maximum power, he/she can kill one of the others. In the end, only one will remain alive.
The characters were a bunch of psychos, monsters and bloodthirsty bastards. Look at them:
The stages were great too. A crematorium, a meat-packing fridge, a jail, a crime alley... even a dirty bathroom with "HELL ON EARTH" painted on a cabinet lol
This game had its dark humour. Some special moves involved a crotch-smash by Belladonna, or a pelvic hit by Oddball, among other creepy and weird stuff.
The soundtrack by Contagion was amazing too. I like that kind of music, and it fits perfectly the dark atmosphere of the game.
Storyline. It was pretty simple. Eight persons died and went to hell. There, Marukka (the green demon from above) makes them fight in a tournament where the winner will obtain his/her resurrection. And that's it lol

I love this game. It's a real shame that EA brought down this project. Maybe it wasn't its time. The game needs a lot of improvements, but they couldn't be made.
I don't know if someday we would see a remake in all its bloody glory, I hope so. The mechanics and storyline should be improved.
Here, watch the intro:
And this nice fan site --> http://thrillkill.fdmk.net/ (lots of good info)
My favorite characters were Dr. Faustus, Tormentor, Belladonna and Violet ^^
Have you played it? What did you think of it?
Or... would you like to play it?
