Paul McCartney (some 60's musician) once remarked that you know when you are famous , when your very own music gets played in an elevator. Times change and now it could be modified, that you know when you are famous when you become a playable character in a video game.
Step up David "The Hoff" Hasselhoff, who only a decade ago found re-fame in Europe with shady music. Which proves the theory that if you are truly bad and awful, you will become more famous than if you were any good (Check Oscar winners, know any?) So in a new game called PAIN, you are able to play "The Hoff" and make the character endure painful "pratfalls" while he sings "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?" by Culture Club around a movie set.
Silly game. Belongs on the Wii? Nope, try Playstation 3. PS3 is getting desperate as Microsoft as they are both treating the "casual game market" like TV networks embracing "reality TV". I am seriously starting to cringe at some of the games coming out. What happened to the days when you used to pick up a controller, press the right trigger and shoot for God's sake? Is there no common decent game where you can just pop a cap anymore? Would everyone PLEASE just stop the world. I want to get off this stupid ride now.
