Emergency Mayhem (Review)

Apr 15, 2008

Zany. Crazy. Wacky. Madcap. Troublesome words that set our wrongness klaxons a-whining whenever they’re used to describe something. They’re words you’d associate with the voice-over in trailers for comedies starring teenage ‘nerds’ who are trying to woo the hot cheerleader. And while we’ve not actually seen any of these words associated with Emergency Mayhem, they’re a perfect fit and no mistake. ...

Emergency Mayhem (Preview)

Feb 22, 2008

Many years ago we saw a TV show that included a piece about someone who had tried to jump over a fence, but had slipped and got a spike impaled through the bottom of their mouth. It’s haunted our dreams ever since, so we’re inclined to run a mile from any game that features the emergency services (while taking great care not to trip over anything, of course).Fortunately, the incidents you’ll be called to in Emergency Mayhem ...

Emergency Mayhem Comes to Wii - Trailer and Screens (News)

Dec 19, 2007

Today Codemasters announced it will be bringing Emergency Mayhem, a new action racing title that merges arcade gameplay with mini-game goodness, exclusively to Nintendo Wii. Gamers will have to wait until the second quarter of 2008, but be prepared to chuck bananas at monkeys while simultaneously defusing bombs and driving a police car. That is, of course, unless IGN misread the press release they sentÂ¿

Emergency Mayhem is out to "combine chaotic driving sequences with arcade mini-games", as players will take to the streets in police cars, fire trucks, and paramedic vans to conquer over 30 missions in what appears to be a "Crazy Taxi meets Wario Ware" design. Players begin by chasing to the scene of the emergency as quickly as possible, only to have the action switch up to action mini-games, each using the Wii remote in crazy and unique ways. Think you can disarm a bomb? So what, punk. Who can't? Launching bananas out of a cannon at irate monkeys, however, is a whole new ballgame. They don't teach that in school.

Emergency Mayhem Is Back (News)

May 16, 2007

Emergency Mayhem, a game abandoned by Acclaim, has been taken up for development by Codemasters.

Many Acclaim titles over the course of the last few years since its untimely 2004 demise have been transformed into successful games.

THQ picked up Juiced from Acclaim and has released that game. XS Games released last month The Red Star, and Aspyr has taken up a game called Made Man.

In the wake of all this resurrecting of Acclaim titles from the grave is Emergency Mayhem - confirmed to be developed by Warner Bros. Interactive developers, Codemasters.

Emergency Mayhem was originally announced for the Playstation 2 and Xbox, but will be adapted for Wii by Codemasters. Details are few about what exactly will go on with Emergency Mayhem on the Wii.

Heres an interesting prospect - Crazy Taxi meets Monkey Balls minigames. Or, as someone from the development team described it to us, Grand Theft Auto for kids. Emergency Mayhem was first spotted in early 2004 but, following the demise of original publisher Acclaim, its taken until now for a completely reworked version, running on a new engine and published by Codemasters, to appear. The most significant benefit of the long delay is that well now be able to play it on Wii, with a control ...
