I don't own a Wii but this is the first game I have played that has made me want to purchase that system. I rented this from the local video store and shared playing it with one of my friends who has a Wii. Finally got him to pop that Wii Sports game out of the machine since he bought it. He was pretty surprised after the mature rated game really got going.

First off I love the music and look of the game, black and white with the blood contrasting in red really made me think of Frank Miller and the Sin City books. Second, the raunchy commentary between the announcers John Di Maggio the voice of Futurama's Bender and Who's Line is it Anyway's Greg Proops was very funny. Can't tell you how many times we just burst out laughing from what was said or trying to make sure that is really what they said.

Finally, I just have to say the game is fun. Not for the kiddies mind you with all the swearing and crazy violence but I think I could really play that game a couple times over trying to get better scores and beat the boss's more quickly. This game could have easily become a boring beat em up but with slightly different enemies, weapons and killing method I kept playing and playing.

Also the bloodbath challenges were some of the most interesting and funniest parts of the game. Black Baron the narrator before each challenge is just wrong but if your interested you can check out you tube for yourself.

Definitely a rent and I think even a buy for some. Anyway made me rethink getting a Wii now, hmmmm.
