Ah yes, that was a neat game.  You could swing the guy's arms, turn him and
run.  Watch the blood come out as you slowly chopped off each limb one
by one.  What entertainment!  I really don't remember who made it though
because the version I saw was cracked.  I never even saw it in any stores.
Neat game though.  I have never seen it anywhere else so finding it for
the PC may be tough.
