Wet for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

The Gameplay is fun for about 5 min.... Ruby has nice moves, jumping, shooting, and sliding... but that gets old too quick... It's a bad mix of Tomb Raider and Max Payne. The shooting is mostly on auto-lock and when it's not, the crosshair is a simple dot (not fun), the bad guys are on a stand still AI, you can circle them around the room and not get shot or hit... The sword has only three simple slash moves(left, right, across)... Apparently the makers are big Tarantino and Rob Rodriguez fans. The whole thing is a rip-off of Kill Bill, Sin City, and Grindhouse. This game varies visually, Some of the art and stages are real cool, bloody, and detailed.... But then you take a look at some of the bad guys and it seems like they came straight out of PS One, WTH !!! The Story is something that has been way overdone. Over all, The game has a good concept, I think this character has staying power, Some of the visuals are nice, I think they should make a part 2, just fix all of the above... Looking forward to it .

-SEF

I usually decide not to write reviews, despite how much I enjoyed or disliked a game. This title, however, was so exceptionally mundane, boring, and redundant, that I just had to find the time out of my busy day to offer a few words of advice.

Point 1 - do not, by any means available to you in this universe, purchase this game. If the trailer looks overwhelmingly appealing to you (granted there is about 2 seconds of actual game play in the trailer) please do not waste the effort by doing anything more than hypothesizing the idea that you may rent this game some time in the future.

Point 2 - this game is such a blatant rip off of Quentin Tarantino's 2 part Kill Bill series (specifically the scene where Uma Therman fights the crazy 88 in hong kong) that I honestly think he could make a case for copyright infringement. It's not cool, hip, or a respectable adaptation. It shows a complete lack of originality and dedication; Bethesda Softworks should be ashamed.

Point 3 - the only reason I didn't give this game a 1 is that I can't deny the fact that I wasted a couple hours of my life enjoying hacking people with a sword and taking out six opponents while sliding on my knees. These small and distant shining stars, nevertheless, are very difficult to see through the storm of programing flaws and ridiculous plot attempts known as "Wet"

Point 4 - the upgrading system is downright laughable. "Upgrading" the protagonist means nothing more than spending style points to purchase abilities that should have been there in the first place to make it a half decent game. For example: I had to play through 2 boring hours before I could purchase the ability to shoot someone while hanging on a ledge.

I could go on....for 243 characters exactly...but I've already wasted enough time and brain cells thinking about this game that I might as well have taken that extra hit of LCD freshman year...
