[Multiplatform] WET - Eliza Dushku says fuck, young boys sprout wood and buy because of the title.

WET - Bethesda Softworks

I know I am. Game look pretty slick in the trailers.

It was apparently going to be published by Activision Blizzard but then it got dropped and picked up by Bethesda (of Fallout 3 fame) for publishing. Too bad the developer Artificial Mind and Movement (AM2) has a pretty shitty resume with games like Mercenaries 2 and High School Musical.

It does have a pretty neat cast though: Eliza Dushku as Rubi Malone, Malcolm McDowell as Rupert Pellum/Mr. Eckers, Parry Shen as Zhi, Ron Yuan as Ratboy / Dr.Afro and Alan Cumming as Sorrell.

A few videos here.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I didn't even know there was a demo for it. I'll cue it right now and play it later.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I played the demo this morning too and I liked it a lot. I have mixed feelings about the gameplay but, goddamn, the whole thing looks freakin' sweet. The music is pretty much the highlight of it though.

My main gripe with the game as a whole is that items and platforms you interact with aren't properly highlighted in the environment, so you end up scouring the area for something to do while dodging enemy fire; which is fucking SURGICAL. Meanwhile the controls don't lend themselves too well to the whole thing and aiming is atrocious unless you're doing one of the bullet-time moves. I'll stick with the demo for now and maybe I'll rent it just to get achievements.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
