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...
Beneath all the Smash and shovelware, the Wii really did have quite a few gems.
Not a bad list.. I would add Excitebots, Kororinpa 1 & 2, Bit.Trip series, Geometry Wars: galaxies
In an enlightening interview with Laser Lemming Nordic Game's Martin Kreuch reveals the swedish publisher's plans for their recent haul of THQ ips, including Darksiders.
How about no Darksiders at all? I never understood how people could play this game from start to finish, both belong to the worst games I played in the last 10 years.
Darksiders is an amazing Zelda style game with terrific art direction, great characters, fun gameplay, and something severely lacking from this generation BOSS FIGHTS! The first also had a pretty decent story and its ending is one of my favorite endings in video games.
I also agree with the notion of the first being better than the second.
Oh maaan, please continue the story of darksiders series.
Also if you do manage to get older developers, i hope you guys remove the rpg-ish element. <_<
The game was much better without it.
Agreed! I feel the RPG/loot esque style detracted from focus that could have been spent on more memorable characters and gameplay.
Game Informer - One of the most unique Wii titles revolved around a spider, a scorpion, and actors Billy Bob Thornton and the late Dennis Hopper. THQ released Deadly Creatures in 2009 to little fanfare, but many that played it were charmed by its quirkiness. This week, we see if that charm holds up.
