Worst third person shooter ever

Normally, I check the reviews before i buy any game from game shop. There are only two main sites I rely on, Of course, they are Gamespot and IGN.


Few weeks ago, I saw a Xbox360 game on sale for $29.99 at Walmart. Yea..that's the shitty action-third person shooting game called WET. I grabbed my iPhone, googled it, and watched the video reviews on Youtube. Gamespot gave a 7.5 over 10 score for it. and IGN only gave a 6.6. Also, Video review from Gamespot praised every bit of this game and made it sound a really awesome game. I am a huge action genre fan as well as it is from Bethesda Softworks, hence i bought the game. Back home, i installed it and gave a try.

Holy shit! This game is full of shit.

First of all. The graphic, Developers tried to make a 70s cinematic atmosphere, they mimicked the old-fashion movie scene which totally screwed up the vision. WHY IS IT SO YELLOW! it's like watching a turd all over the screen.
Models used in WET also looks like from a "GOOD PS2" game. there are no minor details at all. everything is like a block. Texture is too awful to look at.

The gameplay is a huge problem I'd like to complain on for hours. It sounds bad ass that a chick fights with a Kanata and dual guns, however if you use the sword to fight you will lose your aerial points, in turn you lose some bonus score. Ok then, i will use these guns. This is the part starting to piss me off again. Every, I mean literally every single moment, such as jumping, wall-runing, dropping from a ladder, as long as you draw your guns and shoot, the slow motion starts. First two minutes, you may enjoy it for fun, but it force you to use it so often. you just end up in a situation that you feel like the entire game is in slow motion.

After I finished the first stage. it began in a junkyard, and started a pointless running game. basically, you have to run and use various skill to reach the goal. it is supposed to be a bonus level ( I believe I saw "bonus level" at the beginning of the stage), but you are forced to finish it.

Camera angle problem is so annoying is second stage. I died and died. It's not fucking hard to jump from one platform to another while a lot of people try to shoot you, however once you jump to a wrong direction, you are screwed and fall off and die, instantly!
the camera is just not pointing at the direction you try to jump to, and sometime it's blocked by objects. And you want to shoot someone in a small balcony, you have to jump to launch slow motion, Opps. you just jump off the balcony, die again. Fuck me.

So far, I finished stage 3. Even a first person shooter doesn't give me a motion sick, but camera of this one is so bad that i nearly puked after 3 hours of gameplay. and I had already died for some stupid reasons for so many times.


I went to trade in this game this week, pathetically, greedy Gamestop only refound me 5 bucks for it.

STAY AWAY FROM WET. Worst game ever!

GAMESPOT, HOW THE FUCK THAT YOU EVEN PRAISE THIS SHITTY GAME?! I will never trust Gamespot anymore. did the developers bribe you?
IGN FTW!
