๐ฎWanted: Dead
Critic reviews
Thereโs an action game underneath all of Wanted: Deadโs problems that is not half bad, especially if you liked games like No More Heroes, Devilโs Third, and Wet. Itโs ridiculous in its context and action.
Despite its clear and comprehensive flaws, Wanted: Dead is still weirdly likeable, and will undoubtedly find a similarly strange and unique fanbase to worship at its feet.
A genuinely gleeful throw back to a time when gaming was jsut starting to bring the best of out the fifth and sixth generation console era. Wanted: Dead draws on eighties and nineties influences and dives head first into a riotous hack...
Wanted: Dead isnโt as bad as the worst games to come out recently but sloppy game design and story-telling has let down what could have been a decent game to play.
Violent, ridiculous, and occasionally fun, Wanted: Dead misses a lot of its marks but is still worth a look for the devoted.
