My friend who works at BK got me all three of them. Believe it or not, they are actually pretty fun!

For those of you unfortunate to not hear of this yet, BK is offering $4 Xbox games with a value meal. If you have an Xbox, GET THEM! They are good! Not worth $50 good, but amazing for $4.

Sneak King- This one is pretty simple, but entertaining it's creepines. Basically, you sneak up to people and scare them by giving them Burger King food.

Pocketbike Racing- Think Mariokart, only more simple and with BK characters. The graphics and gameplay are disturbingly good for a game that only costs $4!

Big Bumpin- Sorta fun minigames. Unless you got buddies to play with or Xbox live, you won't play this for long.

And not only are these games good, they are brilliant when you think about it. What BK is doing is having people buy what are glorified advertisements for entertainment. The games bombard you with BK imagery and logos.

I have a feeling we will be seeing many more $4 games used as promotional devices. And if they keep being this good, I doubt any of us will complain.

See, I told you they were good. I've yet to get my mits on the bumper-car and racing ones, but I've got some extra cash laying around. I just can't stomach that much BK so close together. Plus, compared to McDonalds, they're pretty pricey. But for the amount that they're charging for the games, shit, I don't see why you wouldn't get one (less you're a commie).

IGN rated it a 6 out of 10, which I think is just about right. It's an average game, and it's pretty fun, albeit short.

I hear the racing and bumper-car ones have online multi-player. I'll have to pick those up soon (my free Gold trial is almost up).

I haven't tried out Sneak King much yet, but I can confirm that Pocketbike and Big Bumpin are a blast to play.

Sneak King is strangely erotic...

The great thing is that they work with the original Xbox too.

I dunno, is this working for BK? If it is, it'll probably be the new thing for fastfood stores (which I'm all for), but McDonald's has tried making videos and comics and the like on a larger scale with never too much success.

Except for that one time.

The cover for Sneak King really reminds me of the creepiness of the first commercials they made using the Burger King guy. You know, the ones where the guy would wake up and the Burger King would be next to him in bed.

If McDonalds did get in on this sort of advertising campaign, they'd be more likely to make Wii games. They seem to have a lot of marketing deals with Nintendo.

They should make a FPS where you play as the plastic Burger King and you have to shoot your way through a bunch of communist bases.

Stain is also pretty hot.

That would be the greatest game... EVAR.

They need a KFC game where The Colonel is trying to survive running through the streets of Tokyo without being mobbed to death by squealing fangirls.

All in favour of a "franchise wars" themed mod for BF 2142 say "I"
Of course you will. All intelligent beings dream. Nobody knows why.

Also, tell random people they are awsome! it helps!

I vote I, cause, an apocalyptic battle between Ronald Mcdonald and the Burger King for the fate of fast food, would possibly be the greatest thing ever.
5 out of 6 Space Marines Agree, Impulse 101 is, "the shit".

The 6th one was thrown in the brig for "re-education."

I'm actually really impressed with Burger King's current ad campaign. It nothing short of brilliant. I remember the first time I saw the football one I laughed for like 15 minutes.

The minigame one and the racing one look like shitty games, but Sneak King looks like its a comedy gold mine. The King is fucking creepy. Theres no getting around it, he's a creepy character. Something just seems cool about him sneaking around dancing and giving people burgers. Next trip to the King, ima gettin that one.

Also, as far as fast food shitholes go, I like BK the best.
