Staying Dry In A WET World Is Harder Than You Think
PLANET GRIFFIN bounces back with yet another glimpse into the world of what's coming soon--- and from the innovative company of Artificial Mind and Movement (A2M) and SIERRA comes WET, a unique action/adventure title that I've been following since late 2007. After several development hang ups, it looks as though the gang is finally on track to a definite release this fall, and looking at the gameplay, I can only say WOW! I can definitely say that this title is a third person unlike any other I've seen in style, design, and gameplay! Keep a towel handy to wipe the continuous stream of sweat from your brow...
WET is a retro stylized 3rd person actioner that revolves around RUBI MALONE (voiced by Dollhouse star Eliza Dushku), a wetworks op-for-hire, who lives by the blast of her dual six-shooters and the hard edge of her samurai sword. Propelled by an original 70's soundtrack and a grindhouse visual (they even utilize the voice pitchman that imitates the legendary ADOLPH CAESAR), Rubi travels the (under)world on a payback mission, asailled by double crosses at every turn! A sure fire hit with the gaming crowd as well as the Grindhouse Goodfellas if they get it right! With this, plus a bizarre mix of humor and violence mixed in, all I can say is start saving your pennies now kids!

Mmm - I was wondering when someone was gonna take a grittier stab at Mirrors Edge. This one looks like it just might do it!
I believe it has the potential to really go the distance, as long as they stick to their guns and not 'rush the show'. It looks like a hybrid of Mirror's, Stranglehold, a little Prince of Persia, and a dash of Tomb Raider wrapped up in a dirty brown bag ;)
I love the conceptual/pre-production images most of all! No one can tell me that they DON'T rock!!!
I'll have to wait until I get home to see the video, but that description sounds very intriguing.
The Grindhouse effect is the neo quo right now... It was only a matter of time until it reached the platforms.
I can see it as clear as I can see "The World Of Hurt: The Beatdown King" for XBox and PS3 platforms (lmao);) 'In the daze of wayback, suckas learned the hard way... Until the Pastor came to set it straight...' Priceless!!
