Ilia Chentsov

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> This gives me fond memories of Oni. It was a good title in form and I thought the gameplay was actually pretty fun. The game in whole though ( like its horrible outdoor areas ) was lacking in some aspects. However, no one can be a true gamer and argue the cool factor of being able to shoot people then run up and do some jackie chan / bruce lee moves on their ass then snap their spinal cord in two isn't cool

P.S.

Love how people declare games "rip offs".

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> As much as it's been said, Wet's plot does sound rather generic. Don't get me wrong, though; I would like to see more of the game, and maybe the gameplay will overshadow the plot enough for it to be enjoyable.

I just don't feel like thinking about it anymore.

Gamemaster

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Sure the title sucks and the lead character is female (OMGLMNOPMALEDEMOGRAPHIX!!), but don't you guys think you're shooting this game down too early? At least the character has clothes on and normal sized breasts.
And the weapons? So. Are you honestly trying to say you would play a game with a middle aged swordless gunless woman? Sure.

The only thing I hate is the "strongest female character" boast. They said the same thing about Rachel and Nariko- Why? Is there some contest, some prize I never heard of? And where's the male strong character competition? We don't even really have a "strong" single male character- we have tons!

I guess we shall never have equality.

Gamemaster

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Wow... they could at least try to hide the fact that they're covering up shoddy gameplay with tits. Name it, I dunno, FIRE or something. WET? Seriously?

Reading through the comments, I've tried to mentally compile a list of female game characters who aren't a) kidnapped/distressed or b) ridiculously hot/slutty. It's a pretty short list, consisting mainly of random RPG characters. Any standouts I'm missing?

You see the producer, you understand the focus on the sexy heroin sexy with sexy a sword sexy and guns and sexy acrobatic sexy moves and you even sexy get to sexy see her sexy in her bath.


The poor chick in the background had me laughing for about a minute, at which point I started to feel genuinely sorry for her... Some people have it tough.





Antiterra

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> I'm gonna guess it's called WET because the game revolves around water, the bathtub, "it's on ice", when she stabs guys they don't squirt blood but water.....

Yes to the Kill Bill comments too, they totally put Beatrix in Budd's trailer as the setting.

Would have just made a joke but NICS stole my A2M and WET comment.

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> @DaFox:
Agreed. Enough with the "next gen" nomenclature. We're in the "Current Gen." And the "current gen" is not Xbox, PS2 and GameCube.


DJ Magneto

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Sorry, I'm with the mass: this doesn't look interesting.

I could never be a PR guy because I could never have the gall or the straight face to call a game like this "original".

Right now I'll hold on before I completely dispel the game. It could have surprisingly good game play (doubt it, at best I would hold out for "solid" game play) and who knows, the story could be decent (now that I REALLY doubt, but I do give them credit for giving her more clothes than the average video game heroine).

Way too cliche to hold my interest but it's good enough to sell enough copies to probably justify it's cost to the producers. Soon enough it'll be lost along the way-side in video game history like so many others.

I dont know, your storyline sounds a little boring.

I mean, they could put a male lead with the same abilities and it still be generic, and also objectify men (hyper masculinity and so on). But we can't all make ground breaking video games with deep characters and involving storylines, sometimes they have to produce crap to make some quick income I guess...

Cue sequel.

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Little_Dragon there is only one flaw to your argument.....NO ONE wants to play a video game about a mid thirties women getting beat.

TheGunnz

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Too much clothing, not large enough breasts. Won't sell well, as relying on a somewhat explored genre alone isn't going to cut it. I know that's probably sexist, but let's face facts. Males are still the majority of gamers (particularly for "next-gen" systems) and these kinds of games do not typically appeal to most women. (Yes, I know there are exceptions. There always is.)

Ilia Chentsov

]]> <![CDATA[Sierra Wants To Make You WET]]> Watching the trailer of "Wet" reminds me of the cover of the first EDGE I picked up. There was this manga guy with a sad face who held his NES light gun to his temple. The caption read "Bored to death of videogames?".

This game (though I don't doubt that it'll be fun if pulled of correctly) is like the essence of everything that's wrong with gaming nowadays.

For christ's sake! They put a sexy heroine in a generic 3td person action game called "Wet" (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), show her lying naked in the bathtub, drinking beer and call her a strong and fresh character?

Oooohh, I'm pretty sure, there's a story reaso why the game is called wet. But I'm also pretty sure that they came up with the name and the chick first and then did some brainstorming on why to call the game that way..

How dare these imbeciles tell people, that the game has a strong and interesting storyline? It's cutting and shooting soldiers.

She's no strong character, she's just a girl the guys who make the game would like to screw.

Strong female lead? How about a single mom in her mid thirties with graying temples that's running from her abusive ex spouse?

That would be a strong female lead. Not "generic chick with tattoo sword and dual shotguns".

She's oh-so-vulnerable and deep, because she refuses to touch other people's weapons? That's the lamest story excuse for an in-game mechanic I've ever heard.


Give me back 80s videogaming. At least back then game creators didn't bother to cover the senseless killing with a storyline.

Sorry for ramblin, but it's really hot in here, the air's bad, I feel a headache coming and I'm in a really shitty mood.
