Thank you, Drive Through, as a game, is not nearly as much fun as just hearing Beavis say it. I'm sure Beavis kicks ass at this, but I'm not as smart as he is. In one of the three new games, you're supposed to change all the channels on a 9-screen wall of TVs to "something cool." I'm pretty sure I was doing this right, clicking one station until a murder re-enactment was showing instead of some hicks fishing, but I never got any points. "Can't you get someone cool to play this instead?" is one of the hundreds of insults that gets thrown around if you dare to make even the slightest mistake. If they're not slapping each other around or calling each other "buttmunch," they're venting their anger out of the game toward the player.
What makes it all so much more fun though, is the fact that the two guys are constantly abusing each other. It's not spectacularly original in concept, but it's refreshing to see the idea used in this context. By switching between the two, you can manipulate objects, lure things, push things around and distract people.
You don't just control one character or the other, you actually control both. The gameplay in itself isn't particularly hilarious (although some of the puzzles are reasonably chuckleworthy) but what really shines is the interaction between Beavis and Butt-head. Conveniently, there are all sorts of movies being made, so B&B can travel through some varied environments with vaguely "filmy" themes.Īt its heart it's a fairly simple 3D graphic adventure with smallish locations that each contain tasks that meld platform elements with puzzles and stupid jokes. Set in Hollywood after the guys have finished work on their next movie, they find that they don't have any money with which to get home, so they have to take odd-jobs on the film sets in order to make cash.
And thankfully B&B Get Big.wood (ho, ho) has been designed very much with this in mind. Yes you need the graphics to be recognizable, but underneath all of the icing you need to ensure that the underlying game is rooted firmly in adolescent, ridiculous humor. Humor is obviously the most important element of any game starring these two.
