Wanted: Dead and I was taught a valuable lesson about action game reviews: if your review doesn’t come with gameplay footage, it’s effectively worthless.

I have no idea how most people played this game, but I watched enough negative reviews with dogshit footage to come to this conclusion.

Like no shit you don’t have enough bullets but you have i-frames on your rolls, dashes, counters, finishers, and metered attack because the game is clearly asking you to do more melee… and no shit the AI runs away from your grenades because the freaking game is asking you to use them to snuff out enemies hiding behind covers… but no, let’s just turtle behind a cover, shoot, and complain about bullets… I could go on. It’s ridiculous.

The game is awesome, and absolutely was not meant for a mainstream audience. If you liked Vanquish and Gungrave, I recommend Wanted: Dead.
