Just had to start the thread

 EDIT - Of course below is just a preview. Go to the site and read the rest.

The game itself is among the "brawler" genre, offering Double Dragon or Final Fight-style of beat-em-up gameplay but in a fully 3D presentation. Players assume the role of Jack whose forced to participate in a Running Man-like game show. The task? Kill, maim, destroy as many bad guys as you can as you wander through the various locations in search of your specific goal. Jack's no pushover -- he's a musclebound killer with a chainsaw strapped to his arm, so if his fists don't do in the enemies, that Black & Decker sure will. Of course there are tons of different ways to do in the baddies, including countless environmental items that you can bring in and utilize for some heavy-hitting combinations.

Back to the demonstration: Asian Town showed off a lot of great little touches, and plenty of different death-to-your-opponent opportunities. In one, you can pick up man-sized turtle shells and slam them on top of your enemies to make them do their best TMNT impression against their will, and then take them down while their arms are pinned to their sides. In another, we watched Jack slam a bad guy against a gargantuan gong until he was nothing more than a greasy red smear dripping down the metal. At the end of the demonstration the producer fought one of the level's bosses, a musclebound armadillo guy that attacked with a bowling ball-like rolling move that made mincemeat out of Jack when he didn't get out of the way in time.

cool, the US website is online too



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Wow thanks for the link for the first impression. Already have it paid off in my local video game store just have to wait now.

Around the Network

Yeah this game is going to be mad fun, and no pun was intended.



Support good third party games on wii. Buy games like house of the dead overkill, de blob, madworld, the conduit and boom blox.

As the action exploded, Greg Proops (Who's Line is it Anyway) and John Dimaggio (Futurama's Bender) offered up color commentary...and by "color" we mean "colorful language." F-bombs are dropped as rapidly as your kills, solidifying MadWorld's M rating, as if the flowing blood wasn't enough to earn it the honor.

 

woooooot!
