i dont like this review. the game delivers what it promisses. its 80s action, stupid, over the top, badly produced.
the writter should stfu, there are people who like to " Charging along a snowy hilltop in a jeep fitted with a gun turret and rocket launcher, the player in charge of both aiming and driving, the sheer stupidity of taking down numerous attack choppers and ploughing through metal gates"

about gameplay and graphic, well thats good to know, but the writter is still a shithead.

Looks like a day one purchase. Maybe even multiple purchases. This may end up being the rarest Wii U title.

That being said, the singleplayer game didn't catch my eye at all on reveal, but the multiplayer looked like it could possibly be batshit crazy enough for some stupid fun. It may still be worth the purchase for multiplayer if that isn't broken.

I agree. I mean it's good to be critical, and it does seem to be a rather poor game. But being ridiculous and over the top is its premise. Criticising that is like criticising Halo for having sci-fi aliens because you don't aliens.

There is a character who has a disease that does not let her physically age past 15.

She is the love interest.

That is the most tame thing I can say.

Geez this game may very well secure its place among the worst games of all time when it releases, definitely worst of the year.

People are incerdibly quick to judge, its saddens me.

but every body like dark and griddy things, and what could be more dark and griddy than a love intrest that looks like a 15 year old?

i dont get all this story bashing. story shouldnt be judged in a reivew, how the story is told and if they archive what they wanted are the points that should be judged.

You're a little too focused on the story criticisms and not focused nearly enough on what is a relatively in depth look at the flaws of the gameplay itself listed in a few of the previews now. Yeah, the game can be cheesy, goofy, and any combination of ridiculous 80s-esque elements. I mean, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon? That was ridiculous, but it had the gameplay to back it up to make for a both fun and funny experience. On the other hand, it seems that Devil's Third lacks the polished gameplay that it would have taken to pull off the same move, at least based on the multiple previews.

This, why were people pretending the game didn't look bad?

I guess some of you were just being optimistic, its just a shame that Nintendo couldn't put this support towards a more promising experience

Keeps sounding better and better

Yeah, Nintendo can easily strike a perfect balance ( and make everyone happy ) but lately they've been going overboard ( Splatoon ) with their support or it's so non-existant that the end product is horrible ( Devil's Third )

A perfect compromise would have been to first of all make sure that the game is going along smoothly during development ( and hence be a good game ) and that secondly they could market it here and there but not buy the marketing spots in every single major gaming website.
