Quick Look: Wet

I was waiting for a Quick Look of this game. Jeff nailed it when he said stuff looks cool the first time, everything after that just seemed to get repetitive. It also bothered me just how many bullets and sword slashes generic goons could take before dying.

big meh

Thanks guys. Pass!

Do not want.

Looks like the same problem as that John Woo game. It's like her butts made of ice. And her knees apparently. How does she slide so far without any forward motion and why is there no friction on any of the surfaces. All the action looks totally contrived. Also, slow motion is dead.

Another game all about crime, drugs, and double cross? NO THANK YOU! So cliche and so boring.

Looks a little clunky and not as polished as it could/should be, but still enough there for me to enjoy once it comes down in price a little. I am a sucker for games with slow-mo in them.

Uh....  So...  This game is Stranglehold + Prince of Persia + Afro Samurai.
 
I'll pass.

You NEVER go A to M!

Why does everyone keep saying Stranglehold? How about Max Payne people! That game did it first and Stranglehold ripped it off. Your all living a lie thinking that Stranglehold was the originator of this kind of gameplay.

So much clipping in this game. The fat dude's fingers we clipping through the shoulder buttons of the controller. So sloppy.

I don't know if it's an issue with the game or a combination of the game and the low res video but the flickering "film" effect really hurts my eyes. I think you can turn it off though.

Enthusiasm just dripping off of this one.

Looks like a rental.

zZzz.

Ugh. I'm tired of the "way too overly bad ass" main character chicks. How about you guys actually give some depth to your characters. It's annoying to see the SAME EXACT CHARACTER in nearly every female protagonist action game.

Level design looks a little lacking. When your game is supposed to be action/shooter Max Payne-ish expericence, having areas where you run around confused kills the pacing.  
 
Props to that enemy who took sustained Mini-gun fire to the face for five seconds before dying.

I bet this would be a pretty good $20 game

I really dig this game but it seems like there's a game breaking glitch on the PS3 version. I'm at a portion of the game with trains and I'm supposed to drop elevators on doors to stop the enemy spawn but each time I drop the last elevator the game freezes. Not cool man

all style, little substance.

Nothing about this looks good at all.  The animation is particularly bad in that none of it reacts to the surroundings - the walk animation tries to walk through walls and the slide animation keeps sliding even though you're stuck on a box or whatever.  The camera keeps clipping through solid objects.
 
This seems about as deserving of disrespect as Darkest of Days - they both appear functional, yet show a complete disregard for modern standards in their respective genres.  Genuine question: what's the difference, other than this being from a respected publisher?

I wasn't too pleased with the demo, but I was willing to give it a second chance. This QL makes me glad I canceled my pre-order.

NHAAAAA
 
I saw to much bad platforming going on.

Jeff sounded pumped up for this one.
 
I'll buy it anyway.  I like Grindhouse style stupidity.

haha her dying noise. 
 
i was optimistic for this game :( 

this game sucks like Section 8

Jeff sounded way to cynical in this, while Ryan seemed to try and keep some of the energy present in the quick look. 
Man get Jeff some energy drinks. I don't have a problem with him being cyncial, but when he acts as boring as the game, the video just isn't fun to watch.

" Why does everyone keep saying Stranglehold? How about Max Payne people! That game did it first and Stranglehold ripped it off. Your all living a lie thinking that Stranglehold was the originator of this kind of gameplay. "

Ya know, if there's enough variation b/t platforming and combat throughout the entire game, it may actually be pretty interesting. The combat looks kind of stupid fun and possibly repetitive but I'm definitely going to check out the demo.

This game reminds me of Max Payne.  I enjoyed the demo so I might rent this one although I wouldn't pay full price for it.  (Wouldn't pay full price for max payne either)

I demoed this game & got nauesa & dizziness in as little as 15 minutes.  The controls are hard to use too. Overall it's a shitty game.  I don't like games that have difficult controls...but I really hate them when they cause dizziness.

This game is taking the gun metal grey and dog shit brown concept to a whole new level... And the colour palette isn't the only thing I'm talking about here.

That door thing seems both annoying and really stupid. It would make sense every so often when a door LOOKS like it needs to be pried open... But seriously, those doors had fucking handles.

Looks like a solid rental

Quick Correction: Ryan infered that you only had to aim in the "General direction of enemies" and saw that the red circle appeared over guys that Jeff was shooting.
 
The red circle is an auto aim for your second gun, every other shot is automatically shot at wherever that red circle is, the white reticle is your aim, that you actually have to point over enemies and bad guys to hit them. This allows you to shoot at two guys at once, or just shoot one guy A BUNCH OF TIMES.
 
I've been enjoying WET, the sequence you played seemed like the worst part of the game so far, should've done the 20 minutes before where Jeff started playing, not after.

That film grain/flicker effect gives me a serious headache O.o

That was pretty boring Jeff. Get some rest, man. And what's with Ryan being the QL optimist lately? I'm loving it, but it still scares me a little.
 
Wet looks like a fun rental. And judging by the comments from members who're actually playing the game, it's gonna be a solid way to spend a weekend.

How underwhelming

Looks better then I thought it wood.

looks like something i might be able to play for about ten hours or so, but hopefully its not too long because it seems pretty tedious. all in all, doesn't look terrible.

Sure, it's contrived as hell. But it does look like a bit of fun.

Judging from this Quick Look it seems that Wet suffers from the same problems as Devil May Cry 2 since it seems to have a lot of nice concepts and abilities, but they are made less fun either from overuse or subpar level/combat design, which is a shame since it really does seem like it has a lot of style and would have been great if used better. Good Quick Look though.

I can't believe they didn't mention Prince of Persia. I don't like when people steal from the royal Persian family... unless it's Ubisoft for obvious reasons.
 
I guess woman+max payne+prince of persia looked awesome on paper....

really like the way rubi looks, but the game looks pretty meh.
