Grand Theft Video Game: Limbo of the Lost

In a nutshell, the game was basically made using some free point-and-click adventure game maker and liberally uses "borrowed" elements from Oblivion, Diablo, Thief, and a host of other games -- screenshots of 3D environments used as 2D backgrounds.

And the trailers for the game are laughably bad even without the plagiarism: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/34863.html

The game's American distributor has pulled it, but it's apparently still available in England. I'm almost tempted to get a copy just to play the "Where Else Did They Steal From?" game.

Holy shit. First I was going to say "Ah, what's the big deal, it's just one room", but I saw the other pictures. This is flagrant theft.

Has 'myers87' branched out to videogame trailers now?

Someone at RPG.net has a copy and is posting screenshots as he plays. And ... well, see for yourself.

What if plagiarism was never meant to be?

Damn, I've been following this thread as the guy plays it because the poor design and thievery this game displays is mind-boggling. But it looks like too many people have linked over to the forum because the servers can't handle the traffic. Pity.

So did they realize they had failed to create any kind of atmosphere of foreboding and just said "Fuck it, let's end with a song"?

Why not?

Clearly every other great game in history has ended this way.

Hopefully the King of Limbooooo song ends up on Rock Band too.
