Deadly Premonition might not appeal to everyone but it does have a substantial cult following.
The game is a survival horror experience set in an open world environment. It's like a bizarre version of L.A. Noire fused with Twin Peaks. According to the developers, players are sent to Greenvale, "a remote rural town where mystery and murder go hand in hand." You take on the role of Agent Francis York Morgan, and "delve deeper into Greenvale's deadly secrets". Interrogating witnesses, finding clues, and unraveling violent crime scenes are just a few of the challenges that await you in Deadly Premonition.
Today, Microsoft announced that the game would be coming to Xbox One backward compatibility. Deadly Premonition was directed by Hidetaka Suehiro who made the Xbox One console exclusive D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die. Suehiro is known for over-the-top experiences and Deadly Premonition is regarded as his most twisted work ever.
Deadly Premonition launched in 2010 and still holds up surprisingly well today. It's just as strange and quirky as ever. If you haven't played the title, be sure to check it out at retailers.
