"Thrill Kill: will this classic ever come to be?"

Firstly I have a few questions regarding this game.

*WAs it ever in the arcades?

*Will EA ever publish it or sell the license to someone who will?

*When people talk about wanting the 'ROM' of this game, are they talking about a PSone ROM ,or if it was released in the arcades, the arcade ROM?

*Was it ever published in limited numbers first and then withdrawn?

As a games collector I want this game badly, but I hear that the Playstation has to be modified first before it can play it. Is this true? And if so, was there ever a version that didn't need modification?

I had a copy of it but i think it was a beta version seeing as only about 3 or 4 of the characters actually had their end movies.
Played it through a couple of times and that was it, nothing to write home about, just another boring run of the mill beat em up that tried to get by on it's sexual and violent content but ended up getting banned because of it. tsk tsk

Couple of copies of it lurking on ebay at the moment.

Australia do use PAL, but I wouldn't bother getting it dude. It's the worst game ever.

Buy GTA3 and GTA; Vice City

Ok, most of my questions have been answered. Thanks.

Australia = PAL version?

I can vouch for that, my Uncle got a copy of Thrill Kill and it's possibly the worst game I've ever played.

Avoid.

But I was still laughing at the title whilst I posted. Its a shocking, game that was never released anywhere. Banned worldwide and never reached the arcades. It a 6-8 year old PSONE game, do the math, do you seriously believe someone would take on a dead end project so long after the PSONE? It was only released on PSONE after a final version leaked out in Australlia and then evntually loads had it. It was banned worldwide for every platform, never released and rightly so. Its awful to play, awful to look at and the content is unnecessery.

The game I saw on TV had very good graphics, unless Thrill Kill was released in the arcades which might explain the clear solid graphics that was being demons**trated at the time.

Anyway, I want the game because I want the game, and I had a few ques**tions I thought some knowledgeable person could answer. Ins**tead I get a load of "this game is sh*t" replies.

Please, someone jus**t answer the few things I wanted answering in my original pos**t? Thanks.

Oh, and it's ugly as feck.
I was flicking through some of my old mags and saw an article on it.

Yuck.

You'd be surprised just how far graphics have come since then - you can't make out anyone's faces properly, all is flat and dull and the blood is actual squares.

Quite scary, in a totally different way than intended.

No sorry I'm not selling pirated games. Got bored of that about 6 years a go.

My thoughts exactly before entering this thread.

All except the bit about taking it personally.
Please do take it personally, you are obviously disturbed and / or have no sense in what makes a good game.
Take it very personally indeed.
