Watchmen: The End is Nigh Part 2 is the old melee mayhem you remember with new environments and bad guys. The gameplay is the same old fun, only Rorschach and Night Owl will begin this adventure with their full list of moves ready for use. This is an entertaining and satisfying adventure video game.
Watchmen co-creator Dave Gibbons revealed that he was paid a hefty sum to be a consultant on the critically-panned Watchmen: The End Is Nigh game even though he wasn’t heavily involved. Gibbons also says the game is not canon, and because of that, he was actually fine with liking and disliking parts of the game.
"A brawler? Are you serious? As a game developer you look at the Watchmen movie / graphic novel and think “Hmmm that would totally go good with a fighting game, but since Dr. Manhattan would own everybody lets make it a brawler with Rorschach and Nite Owl!” Screw you Deadline Games!" - FirstDropShow
Well, *as* a brawler, it was decent. And had better graphics than most downloadable games. And don't forget, most games take longer to make than most movies, so movie games are always rushed.
That said... yeah, it wasn't worthy of the source material.
