Whacked was origionally an "XBOX Live Launch Title" used to promote the initial out-of-the-gate library of Live games when Live was first introduced. This game was obviously thrown together quickly to get it to launch. The single player mode gets boring fast, and the online multiplayer suffers from some of the most annoying lag of any XBOX Live title. To boot, your weapons that you use in the game are not held in your character's hand, but float beside their head and have no animation while you're using them against opponents.

i love this game! all you need to do is get some friends, and start playing and i promise you will love this game of pandimoniom! in this game you can get yolk-o-matics,staple gun,baseball bat, hammer, grenades that look like ducks,and loads of cool power-ups! like you can switch bodys with someone else and lunge them off a cliff, turn the map up-side down, and much, much more! NOTE TO ADULTS: this game is not for kids! the language and violance is pervasive, the move clips contain certian content only thirteen year-olds and up would understand,and so i would only reccomend this game to us older gamers!
thanks for reading!

its just fun! i mean realy you just go in and blow things up it doesn't matter that it doesn't have much plot its just a fun game

I played this game once & it sucks. Unless this game grows on you, then maybe it fun after a million time, whacking someone with a hammer, what's fun about that? Unless these people are getting paid to write 5 star, this game rank among worst on-line gaming, who would want to challenge & admit to having this game? I might have not given it a chance but it wasn't worth it for me, maybe if it's free. I got it because it was on-line capable but after playing it, who would be on-line with it? Graphic is ok, but game play gets boring, only challege is trying to see the twirling girl naked! also... never.

My roommate bought this game for his XBox the other day, and we had a couple friends over last night to play it.. we were laughing uncontrollably for hours!

The graphics and play are great, but the smart-a$$ comments by the contestants and the rather hilarious ways you get them to pummel each other (the taser has to by my favorite) will keep you rolling for hours.

This game is definitely NOT for kids - innuendos and double entendres ABOUND, not to mention the mostly-naked female contestant (the source of most of the saucy lines) ..

Haven't tried playing it online yet but I'm sure that will be a lot of fun too. Great game!

This game I have to Say is not exatly pretty.The graphics I personly think are okay.One the fist level Chistmas Tree has detailed blocks.In this Gorry game you posses items like yolk-o-matic,missels,baseball bats,ect. there are different gameplay.You can play fragfest,collect 50 stars,and chiken(get 50 stars from chikens).If you have an Xbox and sometimes feel like sitting down and beating people up(I like forceing others to fly across the room with the baseball bat),you should get this game.

I'm still on the fence about this game; that's why I've given it a 3. The graphics are really great and the sound is pretty good too. The downside to this game was that the levels were all the same, except they got a bit more challenging each time. After a while, it gets pretty boring. The characters are rather amusing and the weapons you get... a stapler, cluster duck, etc.. are pretty funny too. I think this is a good game to rent, but not own.

Whacked is a fun game...with a gory sense of humor. Definantly NOT for kids under 10, this game is a blast...when taken the right way.

1. Gameplay: Extremely fun, and VERY addicting! The basic story mode in this game (titled Game Show Mode) is where 7 contestants go on a game show with a "Whacky" host. You pick a character to fight as (each a little bit...odd in his or her own way) and then pick an arena to fight in. Once everything is set up (Type of game, how long, etc...) you are ready to kicked some major...rear!

...Now, you have a health meter at the top of your screen, a thing to keep track of your "whacks", and a meter at the bottom showing everyones score. The way you wack someone is by either: A) Getting a weapon of some sort (over 30; ranging from baseball bats, egg shooters, rubber ducky grenades, rocket launchers, and even electrical shockers) and using it against your enemy. For example, if u get a baseball bat, you can swing it by pushing the B button. Hitting someone will knock them for what seems like miles. Clearly the strongest weapon in the game, you can knock people out of the playing arena and watch them fly away. Connecting on two or three will boost your score and give you an awsome feeling. Another weapon u can get is an egg shooter, which is like a gun. It shoots dozens of eggs at your oppenant, and eventually, kills them. The whole game is soooo fast and furious, it adds up in the end to be a WHOLE lot of fun.

You can aslo jump and "glide" across the arena, do a sort of ... stomp from the old Mario games and steal your stomped oppenants weapon, and or, use a regular attack (a punch or slide or kick), which just temporarily makes them dizzy and damamages them minimally. The gameplay here is a blast, and with dozens of types of games, characters, and levels to fight in, you will be "Whacking" people for a very long time!

2) Graphics: Cartoony but pretty good. No framereate slowdown or glitches, its all good. You can see all the way across your "area" and pretty far beyond, and water, explosions, dust, smoke, electricity, etc...all look amazingly real. Whenever you hit someone, they usually lose an amount of green or red blood. Though not extremely gory (as the blood looks like globs), this might turn off parents shopping for an XBOX Live game (get to that later) for their 9-year old kid. Overall though, the graphics are good, and there are no "bad" looking parts in the game.

3) Options: Dozens! You can do the regular game show mode (one person takes on 7 other characters in the game show for the BIG PRIZE!), battle mode (take on you and up to 3 other friends on your local XBOX, play system link, or go on Live and take on the world!), Rehearsal (the Whacked tutorial where u learn all of the basic moves), Theater (watch some HOLARIOUS Whacked commercials, replays, etc...), settings (set your Whacked settings and such), and Game Demos (play demos of some of the newest and great XBOX games).

The levels of difficulty during gameplay are: Very easy, normal, hard, VERY HARD. The harder you play, the more rewarding the victory! Are you ready for Whacked?

And Oh, if u beat the Computer, u can take on your friends on your local XBOX and or do system link, and then, when ready, take on THE WORLD on XBOX Live. Chat with your oppenants through your headsets, different types of games (Fragfest, Chicken, Combat, etc...). It's a blast!

Whacked has so many options, it'll keep you busy for a long...long time!

4) Sounds: The whole thing is a commedy...and it works! Each character is holarious in his or her own way. For instance, one of the characers; a 4-year old girl who's a spoiled little brat with rotting teeth; has many lines like: "Ooooo, pretty pile of blood!" or "You got guts all over my pretty dress!" ...All done in a squeky, annoying 4-year old accent. As for the gameshow host (who has HUGE buck teeth and hair dropping over his face, and a head 5 times as large as his body) makes funny comments, and seems to have a HUGE problem with gore (cheers it on). The characters hold grudges, and the whole thing is just fun to watch and listen too!

Overall, this is a fun game for kids 12+ and older who can handle a little blood and cussing. It's funny, it's addictive, and it has soo many options, you will be addicted for a long while! And with the additions of XBOX Live capability and dozens of weapons, you may become "Whacked" for a long time to come!

Hope this helped,
Thx!

Ok, here's the situation. You just got Xbox Live and you want a good game. Whacked! is the game to get. As most people have heard from Official Xbox Magazine discs that you get a huge prize in the end. You can pick from Lucy, Toof, Lucky, Charity, Lance, Otto, and Eugene. You can unlock many weapons, and many game types. Trophy game where you hold the trophy for 60 seconds and stars where you get a certain amount of stars. This is a great game! Next is Kung Fu Chaos or Unreal.

wHACKed is the only game of its kind you can play gameshow mode or just multiplayer highspeed battle intensity.in gameshow mode you will be able to view various hilarious commercials. Such as scrapple,yolk-o-matic,major woodys spank tank etc. Anyway if you want my opinion I would recommend the purchase of this game. Also this game is copatible with xbox live and system link. If you buy this I recommend you get xbox live(dsl optional but for better online play this should be purchased.)
