![]() He's so cool, in fact, that it has become their mission to join his gang and prove that they are not wusses. While at fork at a fast food joint, the knuckle-headed duo get beaten up by Todd, the cool leader of a gang that hangs out at the local park. I found the stoner comedy style to work better when they're not riffing on yet another hair metal music video. The same could be said for the 1997 feature film too. This lessened the reaction video formula and took to the satirical storytelling of the spin-offs and I found I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. In 1995, they were to star in their first point and click adventure Virtual Stupidity. They had actual storylines and with comedic set-ups and pay-offs instead of a couple of stoners mumbling over other people's music videos. The spin-offs like Daria and King of the Hill were much better in my opinion. When I did see Mike Judge's seminal animated show I in all honesty didn't much care for what I saw. I didn't have MTV in the 90s, so I didn't grow up watching Beavis & Butt-Head.

So quit being a dillweed and buy this game and try to be cool for once, huh huh. And like, if you're as cool as me and Beavis, maybe you'll get into Todd's gang. Plus you could be doing a bunch of other cool stuff, too, like messing with Anderson's mind and like, making Buzzcut's neck veins pop out, and just going around breaking stuff and kicking people's butts. Uh, scoring with chicks, not me and Beavis. Like, why are you standing around in the store reading all these words when you could be home with me and Beavis, like, scoring and stuff. Virtual Stupidity does none of the above, but instead thrives as a refreshing, contemporary, relaxing exercise in moronic humor.UH, HUH HUH, the joke is in your hands, Huh Huh. Some adventure games test your cunning, your skill, and your MacGyver-like aptitude in building a flare gun from toothpicks and oily cloth. Or picture the look on Beavis' face as he inflates his shorts with a gas station air hose. Imagine the two as they interrogate patients on a mentally-deranged ward at the local jail. ![]() What makes this game so entertaining (and I gleefully played it through to the end) are the actions and reactions of the intelligence-challenged duo to the people and objects around them. In fact, Virtual Stupidity is largely unoriginal in its approach to interactive adventures, and even some of the puzzles are secondhand fare. You appropriately control the two half-wits with a simple set of commands, using a mouse-driven interface that looks and operates suspiciously like a LucasArts adventure game. To complete the effect, Viacom New Media borrowed the original voice talent from the series, which creates a very smooth transition from linear to interactive, and in the process one very funny game.Īll you'd expect from the eternally juvenile duo is here: fart jokes, painfully obvious sexual innuendoes, glorification of anything illegal or immoral, and the fruitless pursuit of girlfriends with one-liners such as, "Hey, um, do you like to do, like, stuff?" As with the show, the writers' satirical genius puts these antics into a perspective that makes everything undeniably funny. In fact, the crudely-drawn stylized artwork of the television series is accurately reproduced on the jagged lines of a computer screen. What's funny is that they don't look any better. Parents beware, the two relentlessly infantile voices of a lost generation have made the jump in screen resolution from MTV to your computer. "Listen up, dillhole, don't be alarmed, 'cuz like Beavis and Butt-head will control the vertical, they will, um, adjust the horizontal.
