Hero-of-Time Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 This trailer is simply brilliant, everyone should check it out!
Cube Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 Cool trailer. Is it me, or does that sound like Eliza Dushku at the start?
Dan_Dare Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 na not just you. She does the voice of the main character.
Ashley Posted August 2, 2009 Posted August 2, 2009 http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1038206&postcount=26662 :p But yes, Dushku a-go-go!
Happenstance Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Just tried the WET demo, thought it was ok but it didnt really blow me away. Probably the bits I liked the most were the car chase at the end and the music used in the game. I may get the game but probably not until its cheaper, or if im renting games again at that point.
Cube Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Tried the demo, it was good fun, but not brilliant. I loved the music, though.
dwarf Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I thought it was shite tbf. Not surprising though, seeing as though I disliked Stranglehold a fair bit.
dwarf Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Oh dear. X-Men maybe, but you serious? I thought everyone here would be slating it, maybe you're all massive Eliza Dukshu fans. I can just tell that the game is going to be pretty much the same throughout.
Daft Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 It wasn't bad enough to put me off renting. I'm always renting one game at any one time so I'll just dump this on the list. It's just a combo based fighting game that doesn't take itself seriously. I'm not sure why you're so adverse to it.
dwarf Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 It's because it's so poorly put together. In Stranglehold things at least it looked good and ran smoothly whereas this just feels really cheap. I won't be surprised if it rates in the 6/10 region, I think this particular game can be judged by it's demo.
Ganepark32 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) Downloaded and just finished playing the demo. I actually thought it was alright. The grindhouse style is nice the graphics could do with a bit of a touch up. Pretty average detailing on the lead character for what is a game on the high end consoles. Action was nice though and flowed well enough. I don't see there being much in the way of variety but then sometimes a senseless action game is enough to entertain people. I loved the style when it went into Rubi vision, all the red, black and white visuals. Would perhaps be more interesting if they had made the whole game like that. Oh and the aiming could do with some tightening up. So yeh, not bad. I certainly found it entertaining enough but I can see it possibly turning out like something like MadWorld where it all got very repetitive quickly. I personally need to see and hear more about it before I'd buy it but won't be long until reviews start coming out seeing as it's released on the 18th of September.

There was that crap mechanic where you could magnetize yourself to pretty much everything and then start sliding, prior momentum optional. I don't see how this is put together poorly. It may not be stand out but there was nowt especially wrong with it. The quick time car chase section was pretty cool and the Rubi vision was a nice break.
dwarf Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 I know Stranglehold was trash but it looked better and ran smoother than this game I feel. As for the quick-time bit, the developers didn't really think about the background colours when the button flashed up on the screen when you had to jump off the lorry. The red bit - meh. All you had to do was mash square whilst running. Unlimited ammo would have been cool if it felt like you were firing a gun.
dwarf Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) Forgive me for not wanting to waste dosh on it, and therefore further the cause for developers to make more of this tripe. Edited August 26, 2009 by dwarf
LegoMan1031 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The trailer was pretty funny, although i have no idea what the game is about!

Chris the great Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 i enjoyed the demo, so thought id splash out on the game (i forgot to cancle it when i had my hours at work cut back) so it'l be here tommorow. its not going to be big or clever, but neither am i.
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 I enjoyed that comment. But I think there are better 'simpleton' games out there that give you more satisfying simple pleasures i.e Xmen origins.

But I think there are better 'simpleton' games out there that give you more satisfying simple pleasures i.e Xmen origins. interestingly, im playing that atm, rented from love film. its pretty cool, wolverine is a badass. also, i guess i just liked the ott abserdity of wet. its got that sort of crazy cool of killbill mixed with the stupidly over the top action of hard boiled. im not expecting a ground breaker but it'l sure keep me from mischife for a while.
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Fair enough. I just felt after the demo that it could've been cobbled together in an hour (the main combat/setting stuff). I don't mind if a game has a few rough edges but it's hard to ignore the minimum effort gone into making the thing smooth visually and playwise.

Dan_Dare Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 So I'll be getting this scott free some time in the near future. I'll let you know how it goes.
