Out-of-Genre Experience: Difference between revisions

* The ''[[Ryu ga Gotoku]]'' series, known as ''Yakuza'' outside Japan, is a crime drama about life in the [[Yakuza|Japanese underworld]]. The upcoming fifth game, ''[[Word Salad Title|Ryu ga Gotoku Of the End]]'', is set during a [[Zombie Apocalypse]]. Oh, and Ryuji Goda has a [[Gatling Good|Gatling gun]] [[Arm Cannon|arm]].

* ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' is pretty much a straight Bioware RPG [[Space Opera]]. Commander Shepard wanders around the galaxy performing quests and beating up bad guys. Then there are two quests worth of downloadable content which turn the game temporarily into a heist movie and a detective movie respectively, with the appropriate mood, camera work and tropes.

* In ''[[Fable|Fable III]]'', once the King/Queen first sets foot on the streets of Aurora, there is a rather abrupt (and effective) switch from dark humor/fantasy to full-blown horror and it just gets [[It Got Worse|worse from there.]]

* Each of the ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'' add-ons are this. ''Dead Money'' is a slice of [[Survival Horror]] in a Art Deco resort (not unlike [[Bioshock]]), ''Honest Hearts'' swaps the struggles of the Mojave out for a religious conflict in Utah, ''Old World Blues'' is a zany romp with the [[Mad Science]] and humor typical of the [[Fallout]] series magnified. Lonesome Road is a road through a true apocalyptic wasteland while on a journey to discover your past and a final confrontation with the man who's had some involvement with all the other add-ons as well as your own history.
