Stick a Fork in Him, He's Done! Voodoo Vince Now Available

Microsoft today announced that Voodoo Vince is shipping to retailers throughout North America for an estimated retail price of $39.99 (U.S.). Voodoo Vince is an innovative new Xbox title where the only way Vince can hope to prevail is by getting his butt kicked.

Enter the world’s unlikeliest hero, Voodoo Vince, a walking burlap voodoo doll with masochistic tendencies. Players follow Vince through the streets of New Orleans into the depths of the murky Louisiana bayou, as he embarks on an outrageous humor-filled adventure to find his keeper, Madam Charmaine. Along the way Vince must defeat a cast of oddball characters the only way he knows how: by inflicting damage to himself and thrusting himself into the path of danger. Vince takes the phrase, ‘no pain, no gain” to a whole new level. Jumping into a high speed blender; poking himself with pins; hitting himself in the head with a mallet; leaping under falling rubble; getting zapped by lightning; it’s all part of a hard day’s work for Vince. Players have more than 30 voodoo attacks at their disposal to do outrageous things to Vince; and while the monsters end up bruised and hurting, Vince emerges unscathed.
