Deadly Creatures
is a Third-Person Action Platform title being developed by Rainbow
Studios – responsible for the
Mx Vs. ATV series - and due to
by THQ in time
for
the end of 2008. Exclusive to Wii, the play takes control of a
Scorpion and Tarantula as they make their way around the expansive
wasteland killing rival bugs and watching as enormous humans trudge
past making the ground beneath them shake.
It all
sounds very intriguing. According to THQ you will use new special
abilities which make ingenious use of the Wii Remote such as using
the on-screen pointer to fire your web and swing as a Tarantula, or
the Motion-Sensitivity to slash your tail as a Scorpion. The A
Button unleashes quick attacks, whilst shaking the remote allows for
stronger attacks. The attacks can be linked together for combos, and
a Leveling system is present, allowing for more attacks to be
discovered. It’s also claimed that a dark and compelling story will
be involved, though little information is available on this at
present. The two storylines are apparently intertwined, and will
cross-paths on several occasions.
The
two creatures will have entirely different game play styles, with
the Scorpion being more Rambo-style battle-oriented, while the
Tarantula will be focused more on the stealthy side of things.
Deadly Creatures is currently one of the best looking titles,
with stunning animation of the Tarantula’s movement.
The
title looks promising, and could very well end-up as an original
Platforming adventure, with inventive controls and combat. Right
now, we’re not sure; but we’ve got a keen eye on Deadly Creatures,
and so should you. |
