I've been looking for a game to play since I've almost used up Mirror's Edge entertainment value.

I'm not much of a gamer. I didn't really play video games growing up as a kid. Most games don't really grab my attention. But, Mirror's Edge was badass.

So, I'm looking for some demos to test out different games, but I have no idea where to start.

The Serendipity Happened...

I saw a commercial for Wet on Hulu and it looked pretty good so I downloaded the demo today. I installed it and went to start it up and heard the music and I knew it was going to be good.



I played the Story Mode on the demo and it was awesome! The gameplay is like Mirror's Edge except with lots more action. The look and feel is like a modern day western/samurai movie or something. You feel like you're in a Tarantino movie! You get a Kill Bill + Yojimbo vibe which is really nice.

I dunno all the details, but you play some chick with guns, a sword, and amazing reflexes. The controls aren't hard to use and the moves you can do are easy to pull off. If you wanna slide and slice somebody, you press the appropriate buttons. It just makes sense.

When you're not running/sliding/jumping around killing people, you're in a cutscene. There are also moments when you're not really in control and you just have to press the right button to make cool shit happen. I dunno what that's called since I'm not a gamer, but its pretty cool. The whole thing feels like a movie and that aspect only enhances the mood.

As a movie lover, I really appreciate what the developers did in this game. They really set the mood. The cutscenes aren't long and boring like other game's that I've played. The action is cool and diverse. Its not some dumb hack and slash thing. The music is psychobilly! How can you not like that? The game is like a good movie in that it is very immersive. Plus, the character has a cool personality. She said, "I don't have time for this shit!", when prying open a door. A woman after my own heart.

The game also has this thing called Rubi vision. Its neat. It's like when The Bride went whack in Kill Bill. Your vision turns red and you see everything very abstract and you turn into an even more dangerous killing machine.

The only thing that's a little annoying is the camera. You really have to control the camera a lot. But, Mirror's Edge probably just babied me.

This game looks badass. I'd buy it and I've only ever bought one game in my life. So yea, 5 out of 5 or whatever. I'll buy and play this thing the next time I have more $$$.

I downloaded other demos, but I dunno if I'll even play'em. This game is that good!
