Bethesda, the newly revealed publisher for Artificial Mind & Movement's upcoming title, WET, has released some facts and details about the game's storyline and features including:
Three Types of Gameplay – Seamlessly combines three types of gameplay: 360 degree slip-aiming mechanics, sword fighting and acrobatic abilities.
Acclaimed Writer Duppy Demitrius – Written by Demitrius who is best known for his work on the action-packed TV series 24.
Ultimate Interactive Action Experience – Over-the-top acrobatics with constant action that features aerial sword attacks, fantastic sword skills and high body count.
Cinematographic Style – Unique retro film visual treatment with stylized over-the-top characters, an original 70's inspired soundtrack and locations that span three continents.
New Iconic Character – Rubi combines attitude, style and killer instinct!
Nick writes: "WET was a pretty cool experimental project; a mixture of Stranglehold and Max Payne with a bullet-time mechanic and 70’s china-town movie style."
There were a number of cult classics that didn't sell like gangbusters, but still worked their way into gamers' hearts. Here's WWG list of nine great titles that deserve a second chance on newer consoles
I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?
The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s
Problem with sequels is that they aren't very likely. Activision dropped Blur like a bad habit, and Disney isn't doing games anymore. So I'll happily take the originals.
As much as I'd kill for a Demon's Souls remake, isn't likely. We'll probably get Bloodborne 2 instead.
Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
Is the largely forgotten, 2009 game Wet worth a second look? Miguel Penabella considers the game in relation to grindhouse films and the phenomenon of the "B-game".
Man, something about the game play that I've seen so far makes me want to get the game now. Kind of sad it comes out in September though :(
