Popped into gamestation yesterday to see about trading in my copies of overlord 2 but they weren't having it so i traded one of them in (plus the cost of a blockbuster rental) for a copy of Wet.

Been playing it like crazy so that i've finished it by tuesday so i can trade it in (with the other overlord 2) for MW2. I think i'm on the last level and think its alright.

Gameplay wise its quite repeatative, essentially all the gameplay aspects are shown in the demo (only things not in the demo is some gun turret moments and a sky diving freefall bit). I've heard the the final boss is just one big quick time event which is just lazy.

The story is pretty much an average "mercenary who gets used and gets revenge" movie scenario which considering the grindhouse movie style that the game aims for is expected.

The style of this game is what makes it, if Tarrentino made a game it would be like this. They're aim with this game was to make you feel that you are in a grindhouse movie.
It does this in many ways for example the whole game is done with a film grain effect which gets worse the lower your health get and if you die you see the film reel burn. Between levels the game/film is interrupted with cinema intermission clips (i.e. Lets all go to the lobby).

The music is what i like the most in this game. it is full of lots of upbeat indie-rock which blends very well with the action. There is even a level in which while you are fight the is a live band playing in background which is very reminiscent of Dusk Till Dawn and Kill Bill. One really good thing is that when you finish a level it unlocks the songs for the extra features section in the main menu so that you can play them all and not worry about kill enemies etc.

Replayability; Although there are harder settings (i can imagine the really hard setting to be almost impossible because there are several point where i died multiple time and only just scraped through at the end) and a challenge mode unlocked when completed I don't think there is much replay value in this.

I definitely recommend this game for a rental considering that i've had it about a day and nearly finished it so in a week you could possibly get your 1000 gamerpoints and have played it to death. however i wouldn't recommend a buy unless you can pick it up for a fiver of so.

Just finished it.

The rumours were right the end fight is a quick time event and not even a hard one. The section before it was 100x harder than it and it didn't even involve any enemies just a race against a burning hallway.

Going to scour the web to see if i can find the soundtrack to this game because some of the songs are stunners.
