WET is almost there, but not exactly reaching it. Some flaws keep this entertaining game away from a better grade.
The game then continues with a car chase, with the femme-fatale protagonist being on top of the cars rather than inside them. The aforementioned guy is her target, and his goons are keeping her away, but without success, as you will have to kill them all, one by one, in order to reach your goal. The stage ends with a gory scene, where you set the thief on fire in a American-movie-trademark way: throwing the Zippo-style lighter on some poured gasoline, igniting the poor people on the other end of you.
Some time later, Rubi is seen in her resort, somewhere in the American deserts. After completing some more tutorials on how to handle your acrobatics and guns, a cutscene occurs, with a limo coming into the scene and a -obviously- wealthy man making his appearance from the inside of it. He offers a job to Rubi, with her being negative, saying she has retired, but the man knows how to convince her: with a lot, and I mean a LOT, of money. Rubi accepts with no second thoughts, not knowing what would happen later on of course.
From Hong Kong to London, embracing betrayal and death (either created from her or not), you're following the female gun-for-hire from her point of view, as she is trying to complete her contract, finding many unpleasant obstacles along her way.
For the technical part; WET offers some exciting game mechanics, blending the game's trademark slow motion action into the story without making it dull and repetitive, but always fun to play and kill. Yeah, that sounded kinda ... anyway. The graphics could have been a lot better in my opinion. For a game released on September 2009, the graphics are something less than average, although the film-scratch and color effects somehow make up for this, making you forget about the graphics with them being displayed through an '80's-movie filter. The voice acting is passable in most cases, though it could have been a lot better, given that the game does not have that many spoken lines.
For the rest; WET's story is not something too innovative, although its gameplay and engine are something that gave room to breathe to all new-generation's third-person shooting games. The action is polished and guaranteed fun, provided you don't mind gore. The game's original soundtrack was nominated for Gamespot's Best Original Game Soundtrack Awards 2009, justifying its value and great work on it. A sequel has been confirmed, and this time, we're hoping that Artificial Mind & Movement (now renamed as Behaviour) will put some more work into this title, because it is totally worth everything good it can get.
