Go curve some bullets!

Have a bad feeling when you hear the term 'movie/comic based games'?
You might want to check the reviews for Wanted: Weapons of Fate (or what I called Wanted: The Game ... duh!). I wouldn't be surprised if any of you had never heard of the game since it's an underhyped¹ game based on an underhyped² movie(at least before it's first weekend in theater) based on a limited comic series by Mark Millar. I said the game is based on the movie since it brought characters' appearances from their real life counterparts not from the original comic.

After trying the demo last week, I was secretly looking forward for the game (just like the way I secretly watch the movie on my blu-ray disc once a month). Although it had some weird animation in it (may be because it was a demo version?) the game was fun (fast-paced-action kinda fun). I thought it was gonna get some harsh reviews since it has an obvious label on it's forehead, but things seem to turn out different from what I expected.

Well, the video review is just one click away, enjoy!



Here is the video review from Gametrailers's Wanted video vault.



GT has always picky about little details of any game it reviewed but despite the complaints about the length, the lack of multiplayer option and some other minor issues, Wanted: The Game got a decent score by GT (7.2/10) and by the time I'm making this article, more and more reviews for this title are pouring into the internet carrying some good feedback toward the game.

Here are some of them,
- Planet XBOX 360 (8.2/10)
- IGN (7.3/10)
- even the tough ass at 1UP gave the game C+ (which, in my opinion, means 'good' considering 1UP's usual harsh standards)

[UPDATED] or you can check the whole list of reviews of both Xbox 360 and PS3 sections (both earned 68/100 in average) from gamer's trusted site, metacritic.com.

I will have to go get the game and start curving some bullets soon.
