Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse

To be honest Stubbs the Zombie is a game that has only recently came back to memory after I heard the song "My Boyfriend's Back" while at work. While I didn't remember much of the game from the little bit I saw from a friend playing growing up, the dancing minigame came out like a core memory. It has been very fun to play it, and its mostly very simple in most of its gameplay. There are moments however where it can get a bit tricky, but nothing bad enough to where it ruins the game itself. A problem I have noticed is before I could get into the meat of the game, it would freeze multiple times during the tutorial which was extremely frustrating to me. It seems this is has/is a common issue with others, and while I have somehow manage to find a slight fix to make it run smoother it still continues to freeze on me at random moments. I also noticed the lack of music during the levels, and upon further research it seems to be an issue from formatting that causes the music to not be played. These things seem like an oversight from THQ as they are the ones that published this remastered version of the original game. I do recommend this game to other players, but I HIGHLY recommend getting it on sale. I think for the quality you receive the discounted price on it is much better as I was able to purchase it for about $2.

This game is a great classic with solid gameplay, a very funny and awesome story, and exceptional characters and voice acting. I recommend this game.

The good: All the voice actors seem to have had fun recording their lines. The bad: Basically everything else. Game crashes, a lot. Story is practically not existent. Gameplay becomes boring and repetitive after 20 minutes. Most parts of the game have no music playing. Level design is bland. Combat is a chore. Split-screen coop can't be played with 2 controllers, 1 player has to use a keyboard and mouse and the other can use a gamepad. I like the concept, there was definitely potential there, but the execution left a lot to be desired.

It's pretty dated for a 2005 game, but thankfully the game is playable enough for me to see it through to the end. For something that can be completed in about 6 hours, you're better off getting this on sale. Like, $5 USD or less.

There's something charming about games made in this era, and Stubbs is definitely full of that same early to mid 2000's gaming charm.
