Wanted the game is here, but should it have stayed and idea?
User Rating: 6 | Wanted: Weapons of Fate X360
If you are fan of the movie, and not the comic, then this game is for you. But that doesn't mean to rush out and buy it, because the game is only around 5 hours. On top of that, the gameplay just isn't that original. You have a cover system, quick time events, and levels that keep you going on just one path. Yes, the bullet bending is neat, but one unique feature can't be your only reason for making a game. The story is a sequel to the movie, and while decent, it is just a filler so you can shoot some more thugs. Graphically, its horrible, with lo-res tuxtures and bad animations. You could pass this game as a late PS2 or Xbox game, no lie. Sound is no better, because the guns, main part of the game, sound flat. It is cool to see James McAvoy reprise his role as Wesley, but like the rest of the actors, he doesn't seem to care about the emotions he puts into the character. Overall, Wanted isn't terrible, it's just not that original, and doesn't give you much incentive to play through it again. This is a rental if you are a fan of Wanted and action games, however, those looking for the next big game might want to hold off on this one.
