Game Information
|
Bonestorm is an ultra-violent fighting game. It was released during the Christmas season in Springfield.
The game was marketed very aggressively. The TV ad showed two kids playing a video game and being bored with it. Then the house shook, a hip-looking Santa crashed his sleigh through the wall, and his two reindeer growled and snarled at the kids. "Santa" then used a bazooka to shoot Bonestorm into their video console and shouted, "You want excitement? Shove THIS up your stocking!" After this, there were some shots of the kids playing the game and two six-armed characters on-screen beating each other while blood spewing everywhere. The ad finished with the Santa character saying, "So tell your folks: 'Buy me Bonestorm or go to Hell!'"
History
Bart wanted to have the game, but his parents wouldn't buy it it due to its price and its violence. However, Milhouse got the game, and was amazed by it just after entering his player nickname. He had tried to type "Thrillhouse," but ran out of space and ended up with "THRILLHO." Bart, passing the Van Houten home, heard Milhouse playing Bonestorm, went inside, and asked to play. Milhouse didn't want Bart playing the game, so he got Bart kicked out by making his mother believe Bart was swearing.
Bart then walked into the Android's Dungeon, trying to buy the game for 99 cents, but had mistaken its rental price for a retail price, as Comic Book Guy sarcastically explained to him. However, Comic Book Guy was out of rental copies, so Bart was again denied a chance to play the game.
Now frustrated, Bart went to the Try-N-Save to look at the game, and saw spoiled-rotten kid Gavin getting his mother to buy him two copies of the game, since Gavin didn't want to share with his sister Katelyn. When the clerk left the game case unlocked, Bart attempted to shoplift the game, but was caught by store detective Don Brodka.
Behind the Laughter
- Bonestorm is an obvious parody of the Mortal Kombat games and other fighting games. The two characters fighting each other in the TV ad bear a strong resemblance to the Mortal Kombat character Goro.
