GodisaGeek: "Given the sudden resurgence in “grindhouse” movies in the mid-noughties (thanks mostly to the efforts of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez with films like Kill Bill, Planet Terror and Death Proof), it was only a matter of time before a game developer took the idea and ran with it. Although Artificial Mind and Movement’s Wet wasn’t the first game to emulate this niche style of film-making, it is one of the most prolific, and certainly one of the most extreme examples, cutting a slurry of different concepts together like cheap narcotics, from its 70’s-themed soundtrack to the OTT violence, bad language, over-sexualisation and deliberate rough edges."
Nick writes: "WET was a pretty cool experimental project; a mixture of Stranglehold and Max Payne with a bullet-time mechanic and 70’s china-town movie style."
There were a number of cult classics that didn't sell like gangbusters, but still worked their way into gamers' hearts. Here's WWG list of nine great titles that deserve a second chance on newer consoles
I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?
The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s
Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
Is the largely forgotten, 2009 game Wet worth a second look? Miguel Penabella considers the game in relation to grindhouse films and the phenomenon of the "B-game".
