Remember Wanted? That Angelina Jolie movie from last year where assassin’s could bend bullets and what not!
GRIN, the guys behind the GRAW series and the superb NES remake Bionic Commando: Rearmed, have developed a game that acts as a sequel to the movie. It’s called Wanted: Weapons of Fate.
The game is not a typical third person shooter. It has many cool features which if implemented well may turn out awesome. For one, you can actually bend bullets like in the movie! I’m not sure how the controls will work but from the gameplay video it looks like you’ll have to form a trajectory before shooting and the bullet will follow that path. I can’t wait to try this. Just imagine how much this will add to the standard shooting experience.
Apart from this the cover system in the game also looks good. It looks pretty similar to the Gears of War cover system which we all know is awesome. The movements look very smooth and believable (at least in the video).
They also have something called cover stabbing. It is exactly what it sounds like. You can perform melee attacks from within cover! Sounds (and looks) pretty cool.
The game will come out on Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Check out the gameplay trailer.
