Developer Rising Star Games
Deadly Premonition is a 2010 open world survival horror video game developed by Access Games. Set in the fictional rural American town of Greenvale, Washington, the story follows FBI Special Agent Francis York Morgan as he investigates the murder of an eighteen-year-old woman, which bears similarities to a series of murders across the country. Deadly Premonition was originally released in February 2010 for Xbox 360… From Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0)

What people are saying
A cult classic with a broken PC port; players are split.
Many players praise the game's unique charm, story, and characters, calling it a masterpiece despite its flaws. One player says, "The story and characters are unforgettable, even if the gameplay is janky as hell." [4][26]
However, the Steam port is widely criticized as unplayable due to crashes, poor performance, and required fixes. A player notes, "This PC port straight up doesn't work. I spent 3 hours of my real human life on fixing the controls, the camera, the memory leaks and constant crashes." [22][23][34]
Praised Story and characters · Unique charm and atmosphere

The current vibe is thinking about Deadly Premonition! ngl I love Deadly Premonition so much 🥹 I originally played it on the Xbox 360, and it was such a goofy game filled with personality, it was super fun! I hope you have a wonderful day, I send love and positivity your way 💛☺️
positive · AI labelView post →From Killer7 to Deadly Premonition, Japanese game creators have intrepidly explored the theme of mental illness in a variety of genres. The title I wish to approach today is a lesser known reference - a memory, if you will, which the collective conscious has long repressed🧵
neutral · AI labelView post →I think about Deadly Premonition and how they clearly just built the world first and then the game around it, about how it is has novel things like every NPC having a schedule and you can follow them home and watch them through the window. Strange passionate details because someone cared a lot.

The game was so crazy and goofy while also telling a serious and gripping story, and the world was a ton of fun to explore! It was an incredible experience!

positive · AI labelView post →On the one hand, yeah definitely export your own cultural weirdness. Part of the joy of having so many other cultures in the world is getting little peeks into them via art. On the other hand, some of my favorite games of all time have come from Japanese developers fetishizing American culture and trying to pretend it's normal. Deadly Premonition, Metal Wolf Chaos, all the works of Hideo Kojima. I think there's something to be said for the strange fusions that can occur when an outsider makes…

neutral · AI labelView post →Listen. This port is garbage. Every port of this game is garbage, but every other iteration is more functional than this one on steam. Getting this variation of the game to work might actually be the hardest endeavor you ever take on in your life and if you set out on that path instead of getting any other port (switch is the most accessible) I wish you the best of luck because you are going to need it and then some. It can be done but it will take iron will. The gameplay? Atrocious. The…

positive · AI labelView post →i know the joke is "Deadly Premonition is jank" but it really bums me out that every single port or re-release of the game is fucked up in ways that diminish the original X360 experience. the key to DP is that it was a phenomenally good game despite its anachronistic gameplay and low-budget visuals.

neutral · AI labelView post →Trailer for Shadow of Memories, a pretty early Konami PlayStation 2 game, in 2001, with voice acting that reflects the era. Hell, the entire atmosphere is borderline Deadly Premonition-esque, as it's a time travel detective game, but you're the murder victim? Underexposed, eccentric game #chosting

positive · AI labelView post →Leaving this review to say that you can prevent the game from crashing by setting the executable in Combatibility mode and set it to windows XP you do that by right clicking the Executable and then open properties. Also run the game from the folder. Havent finished the game yet but having fun with it ya know
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Washington: The best TV show set in Washington was Twin Peaks, and there's a game that leans so heavily into that show that it also takes its small town Washington setting. Of course, Deadly Premonition represents the state.

neutral · AI labelView post →Its janky missions, awful combat, and stiff controls end up feeling like part of the charm, wrapping a bargain-bin horror shell around a surprisingly tender story about grief, faith, and the quiet loneliness of a small country town.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Whenever I see this video I think it's perfectly plausible dialogue in a Kojima video game... and then I immediately remember that Swery started 'Deadly Premonition' with a monologue about how 'Tom & Jerry' have a BDSM relationship.

After all that exhilarating action I was not able to progress even to the second act of this godlike game - now it crashes on a random place and my save seems to be fully corrupted. When I tell you that NOTHING works, I mean it. Even things like the world map, the most basic quality of life feature, are incomprehensible and made to be as…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deadly Premonition is fantastic. It's a surreal and quirky game with a plot and world that will captivate you. Each character is memorable- with NPC schedules that Bethesda games could only dream of. And while the gameplay isn't anything to write home about, it remains serviceable. As such, I wish I could recommend this. But no. This PC port is high up there with some of the worst and lazy ports ever released on PC. Constant, and I mean constant, crashing, memory leaks, broken mechanics, the…

neutral · AI labelView post →The game itself is good but this is a horrible port. As someone who tries to collect as much achievements it is impossible to play. Eventually I had to give up and find my xbox 360 because it was constantly glitching and crashing. Unfortunately the developer could care less about fixing all the well known issues. Don't waste your time or money on this POS.

positive · AI labelView post →This game is a mess… but also kind of a masterpiece in its own weird way. The story and characters are unforgettable, even if the gameplay is janky as hell. The PC port is awful, it requires tons of steps and patches just to get it running, and it can still crash anyway. Honestly, just emulate the Switch or PS3 version if you can.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My absolute favorite "so bad it's good" game, but unfortunately this port is hot garbage. Even after installing community fixes the game still crashes frequently, and since you can only save in certain locations and there's no autosave, you can occasionally lose HOURS of progress for no good reason. This game eventually got a Switch port, but they did not come back to fix the Steam version which is not surprising. Get this on Switch, PS3 or Xbox 360. Also just as a disclaimer for anyone who…
