There are a massive proportion of rednecks in America. Many don’t know what a video game console is, but all that is to change as Hillbilly Interactive enters the market to give gaming fun to the IQ challenged folks of America.

******************************

Press release from Hillbilly Interactive:

Hillbilly Interactive: “Giving the mullet a digital edge.”

We here at Hillbilly Interactive intend to tap into that potentially huge and lucrative market by developing games specifically catered for our redneck friends from the U.S of A.
Millions of rednecks have been waiting for this moment in time, when they can catch up with the rest of humanity and join the technological age.
Hillbilly Interactive are pleased to announce their 2002 release schedule:


THE REDNECK GAMES 2002 EDITION: Forget those boring and formulaic Olympic sims from previous years, this is the sports sim for real men.
All of your favourite hick orientated “sports” are included, plus some new ones, brought to you exclusively by Hillbilly Interactive:

Gator Wrestling: wrestle that big old leathery gator in a muddy swamp, based on the WWF Smackdown engine.

Mud Diving: Similar in execution to the long jump in track & field games, you must bash those buttons to gain speed, at the jump line adjust the jump height and angle, then watch your big old pot-bellied redneck cause a dirty splashdown in the filthy mud (complete with great water effects, and the mud actually sticks to your virtual hick as in rally driving games!)

Hubcap Hurl: Again, similar to execution as in other track & field games, you must rotate the analogue stick as quickly and fiercely as possible to gain power. After the on-screen cursor rotates 5 times, you must set the angle and release the hubcap.
The further the hubcap flies, the more kegs of virtual moonshine your character wins!

Flying Squirrel Shooting (compatible with the Hillbilly Interactive Redneck rifle lightgun): Using the ‘Duck Hunt’ engine, you must use your redneck hunting skills to shoot as many of those virtual varmints as possible in the allotted time.

Ferret Racing: Firstly you must catch your crazy critter, then train him up and race him against rival redneck ferrets.

PLUS MANY MORE EVENTS SUCH AS: ‘Car Eating’, ‘Wild Boar Rodeo’, ‘Watermelon Seed Spitting’, ‘Musical Armpit Serenade’ and ‘Bobbing for Pigs Feet’.

Fear not, as every competitor in these virtual games is complete with an accurately modelled scraggy mullet and has realistic stains texture mapped onto his filthy vest.

We here at Hillbilly Interactive guarantee that The Redneck Games 2002 Edition is great fun for all the family (including Ma & Pa) and the most fun a redneck can have without resorting to rare animal poaching, inbreeding or goat kissing.


HILLBILLY JOE: LONG DISTANCE TRUCKER: Join Hillbilly Joe as he races through the barren landscapes of the American redneck districts. Choose to drive in convey with other rednecks (over the internet or LAN if you have access—but you rednecks probably haven’t) and communicate over CB radio, or race rival hick truckers, aiming to deliver your cargo quicker.
Cargos include kegs of moonshine, crocodile skins and many more hillbilly items.
You can even choose the design of Joe’s check-shirt.


SHERIFF PEPPER’S BAYOU RACING: Join everyone’s favourite redneck, sheriff J W Pepper out of the James Bond 007 films ‘Live and Let Die’ and ‘The Man with the Golden Gun’ in his crazy swamp racing game.
Select your vehicle, ranging from Sheriff Pepper’s patrol car, Cousin Billy-Bobs speedboat and the red AMC Hornet Hatchback from ‘Golden Gun’ and race them out in the swamps and plains of New Orleans. Secret vehicles and characters include ‘The Dukes of Hazzard’ car and Bo and Luke Duke, Burt Reynolds and his ‘Smokey and the Bandit’ car, Mr.T and his redneck bashing A-Team van and Mr. 007 himself, Roger Moore.
Game modes include all out racing on land or water and pursuit mode, where you must apprehend the baddies in Sheriff Peppers Redneck County.

COOL HAND LUKE: Based on the successful film starring Paul Newman, and using the ‘Operation Flashpoint’ engine, you are Luke, and in rebelling against the sadistic redneck guards, you must escape the hard labour camp and run over miles of barren terrain. There are many vehicles at your disposal, and you must remember to cover your tracks to avoid sniffer dog detection.
Coming in 2003 is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre expansion pack. As a young hippy kid, you must escape from ‘Leatherface’ and his inhospitable hillbilly family over large expanses of desolate land.


Games will be released on all the major platforms and all titles will have an RRP of $10, plus pre-order any title now and get a free stuffed ferret or mini keg of moonshine.

If you have any comments or suggestions for Hillbilly Interactive, then don’t hesitate to contact us via CB radio.

Thank you.

Another funny and quirky post.
I enjoyed reading that.
Maybe I'm a little twisted, but if your game ideas actually became a reality and were released, I'd buy them.
No joke.
Quirky and peculiar games is where it's at if you ask me.
There's not enough of them on the market.
It's an unexplored and waiting to be exploited territory.

Introduce a banjo based dance mat game to that list, and you'll be onto a winner.
