When the last ball was shot at the end of the movie Universal Pictures Wanted, did you think: "I wish I could continue the adventure on my own"? If so, then Wanted: Weapons of Fate was made for you. Continuing the film's story, Wanted Follow Wesley as he tries to uncover the truth about his mother, a journey that allows players to take control of Wesley's dad, Cross, at different levels of flashback.Being a video game based on a movie (which in turn is based on a comic book), Wanted expectations are quite
low. But the producer of Wanted is Pete Wanat, the head of some matching cinematographic man adaptations: The Chronicles of Riddick, Scarface and The Thing. Are you asking these standards? No.Wanted: The Weapons of Destiny manages to recreate the look and sounds of the film, although the 360 version has some pre-rendered scenes badly compressed. The combination of some of the artistic sensibilities of the comic in the ordinary world and cinematographic style of the film, the developer GRIN created an interesting hybrid. You get the image of Joe star of the film, James McAvoy, who wears
the costume of the comic. It is the best of both worlds, with a third element (you know, the whole game) that fails to live up to everyone.A third person shot a blanket, looked for an elegant style worthy of this movie, but takes about a long time. This does not mean Gears of War or a similarly shifting shooter moving slowly from point to point. Wanted moves quickly covered with a system that focuses on chaining one to another with an interface that displays the available options part of the case lid. You can drag quickly behind a box, then jump on it to a wall and then dive from there to the security of another
box. The lid of the key is very sensitive and without a doubt it is the only thing that makes a search is really excellent. The rest ... not so much.If you play as Wesley or Cross, you will perform the same movements across all linear levels. The enemies that shift superficially and its strategy remains virtually unchanged from the beginning to the end. Shelter, use your skill ball curve to kill the enemies, go for it.And yes, you have the gift of bending bullets like in the movie / cartoon. In fact, it is an ingenious system. Hold a button on the shoulder and the bow of your ball is projected onto the screen. You can adjust this with the thumbstick, increasing and decreasing the angle and changing their firing position. The line becomes white when the track is free for the red target if there is an obstruction. At first, you probably spend half a minute getting the perfect shot, but once you get the shot of the ball curves, you
can establish a clean line in a second or two.Bending balls are not cheap. It has an adrenaline counter (shown in the upper right corner of the screen). Kill an enemy bullet and full of adrenaline. And it costs a ball bending a blow of adrenaline. If you have the ability to kill enemies in a single bend, the counter will be constantly refreshing. But often, a bullet does not kill instantly and instead sends enemies outdoors (each time with the same animation). You see this a hundred times over Wanted.Wanted is at its coolest when you get an instant death with a curved shot and the camera chooses to follow its way into someone's brain. You will hear the sound effects of the film - you know, real bullet in the brain of the audio - which is a nice touch. Seeing the idle balls on pieces of fleshy meat from thugs never gets older.
Although other Wanted is becoming redundant (a real feat for such a short game), slow balls in brains remain enjoyable everywhere.Wanted but never takes the idea of bullet curves away. One never has to find interesting situations where you do more than bend a shot around a simple piece of cover to someone.
