Could someone explain to me exactly what Project H.A.M.M.E.R. is? I've never really been clear on that. I know it's a Wii game that got canceled, but what did we know about the game?

 

 

It was a beat'em up staring a guy who swung a big hammer at Robots. The name and videos we saw suggested that you'd only ever be swinging a big hammer at robots. It looked mildly entertaining for a few minutes, but an entire game based on it would be dreadful.

Yeah I agree with Stof.  I doubt the lack of 1:1 had much to do with it.  A couple games with this same idea of using swing motion to fight - Dragon's Blade and Soul Calibur Legends did come out.  Dragon's Blade is actually mix it up quite a bit but still, how long do you want to be swinging that remote around?  It gets old, quick.   H.AM.M.E.R. probably  died from lack of fun.

Ubisoft had the right idea with Red Steel.   Now there's a game that will be 100x better with WM+.
