Saturday Crapshoot: Hellboy
Every week, Richard Cobbett rolls the dice to bring you an obscure slice of gaming history, from lost gems to weapons grade atrocities. And you know what this week is? It’s the long awaited 100th Crapshoot! (fires cheap party streamer in air, eats single celebratory biscuit)
Yes, one hundred Crapshoots. One hundred Saturdays filled with far, far too many words about insane horror, inexplicable edutainment, dreadful porn, random musical interludes, occasional light-hearted blasphemy, and oh, so very, very much more. It’s the PC gaming column that spits on your “tl;dr”, and about which it has been said “How could anyone drone on so long about Bloodrayne 3?!”
Clearly, this is a very special occasion for fans of both decimals and arbitrary milestones. But how to mark it? How else? Let’s dive into one of the PC’s most infamous duds – the sucking abyss that is… Hellboy! Hmm. That might have been more dramatic if you hadn’t already seen the title.
