Latest update: Part 10 - FINALE Total Overdose: A Gunslinger's Tale in Mexico is a 2005 PC, PS2 and Xbox sandbox shooter. It's often called a GTA-clone, but it's more of a mix of GTA, Max Payne and Tony Hawk. You play as Ramiro "Ram" Cruz, who's trying to infiltrate the Morales Cartel to find out who was responsible for the death of his father (and also to get his prison sentence removed). There's a lot of jumping, shooting and casual racism. Also there is music. How are you playing this? This is the PC version of the game, purchased from GOG.com. The Let's Play is post-commentary and I am joined by the lovely trio of El Tipejo Loco, Iron Chitlin and TorpidTypist. Will you be doing/collecting everything in the game? I'll complete all the side quests to get as many unlocks as possible, but due to there being a lot of content that is essentially the same, I will only show off each mission type once. I won't be getting all collectibles, because there's really no point to it.  SPOILER POLICYDon't spoil anything ahead of the episodes.

UPDATE: Part 03 - Sidetracked Time for a glimpse into some of the endless side missions this game has. BiggestOrangeTree posted:I feel compelled to point out that at the time the game was funny, cool and good. It did not age well. Oh yeah, I played through it as a kid and thought it was great. Then I played through it for this LP again and realized how badly it had aged.

Bogart posted:So far I have seen nobody running with the hatchet, this thread is misleading at best and harmful at worst. Voted 1 There will be rakes later in the LP. Sadly, Mexico does not have hatchets.

UPDATE: Part 06 - DEA(D) On Arrival We're back to doing the main mission. It's time for the mid-game plot twist! zidane13 posted:Thanks for doing this! I've known about this game but gave it little thought, as it didn't seem good. But after seeing it I wanted to try it, and...it's super fun! Janky but fun, it feels a lot like a proto-Stranglehold. It definitely feels held back by technical limitations, but I enjoy the core gameplay of shooting stuff with crazy motions and getting points. It's a shame the sandboxy and side mission parts of it hold it back.

UPDATE: Part 07 - What a Load of Bull Aside from a very weird 180 with an existing faction, you can look forward to a "boss fight".

UPDATE: Part 08 - Keep That Combo Going There's a lot to process in this episode: plot, calling out popular let's players, music, pop culture references, explosions. Really, it's the best one so far.

Quiet Python posted:It has been a long time since I played this game, but I was pretty sure that there was a scene after the credits that implied that Papa Muerte is actually the protagonists' father who faked his own death at the beginning of the game and has been secretly running a massive drug cartel. Might be a different game, because neither this nor the "re-imagining" that is Chili Con Carnage have that.
