Become the Biffman in Retro City Rampage
After running over loads of pedestrians and stomping on their heads in Theftropolis City, it’s good to know that there’s a super hero protecting the city. That is, unless you want to become the hero and still destroy pedestrians in Retro City Rampage. In this new trailer revealed today on their official Twitter, you can steal the Biffmobile and become the titular hero and look for super criminals to bust. But watch out, as some of the criminals have plans to foil the hero even when it’s really you in his costume. While creator Brian Provinciano stated that he wants the game out by the end of the year, it could be early 2012 so keep your fingers crossed for Retro City Rampage.
