“She proficient at swinging on poles and sliding on her knees”. I didn’t know this was a game about Gman’s mum.

"its a lot like Tarantino films" - people who have only seen Kill Bill vol. 1's trailer.

Ah, 2009, just a few short year before the entire Triple A industry started to ask themselves “Why do games need to be fun, exactly?”

"more anime, but not like I watch that stuff." Secret weeb? I think so.

I miss this era when there were just so many games being released. So many single player shooters with decent budgets. Doesn't happen anymore. Single player shooters are either smaller indie stuff with low cost production or AAA but they take years and years to come out, and even then it's very very rare. I can only think of the new Stalker now and that Atomic Heart game.

I'm still waiting for Dry

I bet the genderbent version would be called “Hard”

Speaking of laughing at fart jokes: I almost pissed myself when that car exploded with a fart noise. Splendid!

Literarlly NOBODY talks about this game...I've had so much fun with It!

Man, I use to play the crap out of the demo for this game. It was oddly satisfying sliding up stairs. Good times.

I love Wet. I must have finished this 500 times when it came out. Everyone said it was stupid and I was crazy but I wouldn't stop. Watching it today only makes me wanna play it again.

Not enough feet to be like a Tarantino film.

Honestly if that was what they were going for with the title, "Wetwork" with her drenched in blood for the cover art would've worked way better. This is one of those games that most people played the demo but never actually bought the game

I'm still salty over WET 2 being cancelled.

I hate to say this but I like the red white and black artstyle when Rubi's in rage mode.

Reminds me of somewhat of a Grindhouse Film and two other games “Total Overdose” and “Stranglehold” to me. I remember playing this a long time ago, underrated

Picked it up during qurantine, I really enjoyed it. The melee is a bit clunky but the shooting and rage mode moments are a blast once you get a flow of things. The car sequences are horrific on the hardest difficulty but manageable. I'm hoping for a spiritual sequel to this

2009 is the year of underrated gems. The Saboteur is one of my favorites of that generation, also has that exploitation movie feel.

Fun fact, there was supposed to be a live action movie of this game with Eliza Dushku reprising her role, obviously nothing every came of it(she talks about in the behind the scenes for the game, how they're also making a movie) You have to wonder how that would've turned out.

in all honesty this game looks pretty cool from the outside, i just love to see old game that have cool cutscenes and quick time events that are pretty well animated. RE5 is a glowing example of extremely high quality cutscenes that look amazing to this day, and this game looks pretty cool as well. Though all the negatives you mentioned do seem do drag the game down quite a bit.

Not forgotten by me I love this game in all its awkwardness

Sure I heard that It's fun and all but there's the thing with the final boss being just a QTE. Heard that they ran out of budget or something.

you know something's wrong when the protagonist is a hot woman in a thong but Gman is still negative about the game

The soundtrack is mostly psychobilly, not punk. And to be honest, it goes pretty good with the overall aestherics they looked for the game

I remember picking this up at gamestop for like 5 bucks because I didn't have anything to play at the time. I was shocked at how amazing it was. A adrenaline rush throughout.

It’s weird that I agree with what he’s saying but I actually still kinda like the game.

This was never forgotten. The advertising was so freaking iconic and my dad picked it up for the PS3. Around the same time Max Payne was popping hahaha

I remember playing the demo for this and thinking it was the coolest thing in the history of ever. Then I rented it a few months later and thought "yep, enough of this" about 2 hours in.

What!? The music is the best part! All that great punk and psychobilly music.

Just imagine if this had the destruction seen in John Woo films mixed with the strong writing of Max Payne. I could easily see it working if the devs focused on those elements.

Sounds like fun actually, even with the flaws. Might have to try it someday

Check out Jet Li's Rise to Honor. It's an old PS2 game that starred Jet Li and it was very similar to Stranglehold. I loved all the environmental kills when I was a kid, would love to replay it and watch a review of it.

Loved this game when i first found it. Wish they would make a sequel.

Man, holy shit. I've been waiting for this video...not necessarily from you (sorry Gman), but just waiting for someone to finally acknowledge that this game existed. I don't remember much about it because I played it when I was a horny teenager and had the hots for the main character, and also: the soundtrack fuggin slaps. Especially The Arkhams contributions, "Insane" and "She Lost Control", those were my JAMS for a long time...ah man, that reminds me, I need to put that OST back on my playlist. edit: oof, that's what I get for posting my comment before watching the whole video. Gman slaps back with saying the music is the worst and the main character is like Hitler....

I worked at Blockbuster when I was in college... Our store had three copies of this, for some reason.

Good to see GMan going through his backlog, I would love to see a review of True Crimes: Streets of LA.

Was in love with the soundtrack at the time as a little kid. What a game...

I f***ing LOVED this game. I want to see it ported to PC sooo badly!

Man I just wanted to say I have recently found your channel and Thoroughly enjoy your content and how you review some games I've never heard of and some that were just right before my time as a gamer, I love your jokes and comedy style especially the "your mom" jokes so I just wanted to say I love your channel and your content keep up the great work.

"Trying to pretend that anime fans are real people" Me: *Nani intensifies*

This and Kane & Lynch 2 were my guilty pleasures Oh and Madworld

Oh no, I remember this game but I never saw this as a shooter tho.

It’s so funny how much she looks like a Rock Band 3 band member, in a spin-off game...

Man I love your outro so much! Specially when combined with that doom imagery 👌🏼

I was actually thinking about this game recently, never was able to finish it 😢

It's pretty dang fun. And given it's old as heck now, probably get is super cheap. Well worth a play if you haven't.

Gman we know your a massive weeb with multiple body pillows and anime figures it's okay you don't need to hide anymore. Jk

I remember genuinely liking some of the music of this game, it had a few songs that slap. I also really liked the demo, but playing the whole game got pretty repetitive, but was pretty fun while it lasted.

I love this game, and I love the soundtrack even more.

I was thinking about this game about a month ago and it's great to see other people had a great time. I mostly agree with what you've said, the core gameplay loop is rather addictive but there's no longevity to the game, got very bored by the second time I wanted to play it. Great video.

I guess I'm old but I love your Seinfeld references Edit: the Bride is one of the coolest movie characters to me but Rudy totally sucks man

I loved this game. It was glitchy but definitely amazing and had potential for a sequel

Great. Another game I have to buy.

I'm actually glad you're posting this, picked up PS Now and love this game!

Oh man.. I played this a lot, like a lot ,lot.. great game, well maybe not great but, great fun at least and that is whats important..

I remember playing this when I was little and have completely forgotten the name of it years later. Thanks for refreshing my memories 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

lul that Jackass tune in the beginning, the nostalgia. I always remember that after that tune there are some compilations of the group fcking up

I bought WET cause of this. It took some getting used to but now I'm having fun. The music is great as long as I mute it in game and play the soundtrack on Spotify. The game becomes much less disjointed that way and I can enjoy full songs.

That red, black and white filter is straight out of the music video for QOTSA's Go With The Flow

I loved this game. I just recently stumbled across it while I was looking for something in my bedroom and I am about to play through it again. For me personally it was one of those games that I knew very little about (if anything at all) when I first saw it and bought it because I saw it going cheap in the store, and after playing it I was so glad that I discovered it. It seems to be a lot harder nowadays to discover videogames that way and there seems to be less hidden gems and for the most part either great games or terrible games. I never took notice of official reviews or opinions of official game reviewers because there were too many times when I played and loved a game that had been officially ripped apart or vice versa.

This game is so underrated. The soundtrack, game play, level design I love this game.

This isnt Kill Bill at all. This is ride to hell retribution in an alternate universe

The artstyle and especially the soundtrack where amazing

the signature fart sounds in all your videos never ceases to make me laugh and rewind

I'll never forget how much "hype" this game had and not getting the hype at all

Seeing that 360 achievement notification teleported me back to better times for a moment.

I loved this game, still own it. Eliza dushku as the main protag, was a great touch.

"i dont see how this is like a tarintino movie!" minutes later "It's like pulp fiction"

I was just playing this last night hoping someone would give it some love 😂

Such a fun little grind house shooter. Paid full price on release and never regretted it

I remember playing this game so much and loving every second of it when I was younger, now I gotta go find my copy.

This game was really something else, the soundtrack was exceptional. I still listen to some of the bands it introduced me to today. The gameplay was a ton of fun, the story was pretty forgettable though. It was really just meant to be good dumb fun and it did a fine job with that.

Nah the music is still dope. The Rockabilly vibe is dope.

The soundtrack is actually genuis. The lyrics are always talking about Rubi and describing her. One of my fav protagnists of all time. If you didn't notice that then well what are you even doing?

I bought this when It came out and loved it dearly. One of my favorite 360 games. Here's a quote of mine. "Yakuza is a modern day Samurai film." Here's your response. "There aren't any samurais in Yakuza!"

I loved this game and it's sound track

Since you covered wet you should review total overdose next

I really enjoyed the soundtrack for this

One of my first games on the ps3. It has so much nostalgic value to me....

I LOVE EVERHTING ABOUT THIS GAME. wish we got a remaster or even a sequel.

You should review shadows of the dammed. Its an enjoyable game

This looks like a fun game. With Eliza Dushku to boot? Hell yeah!

I'd love a game to combine gameplay elements from this, Stranglehold, and Dante's gunslinger style and mix it all together.

That part where you fall out of the cargo plane really reminds me of Saints Row The Third

Wow, I forgot I had actually played this game. It’s so forgettable…

That sequence where she jumps off the plane shooting people in mid air is from the movie shoot'em up starting Clive Owen xD

This game is Total Overdose, Mirrors edge, Matrix the path of Neo, Tom Raider and Max pain all put into one game. I miss this era of gaming of Shot em ups like this. The ps2 era had so many of these high action games lol.

You ever play never dead? I need someone else to feel my pain.

All I remember are the lack adult art for this game.

Repetition is a hard thing to judge in games since most of them have core gameplay loops and mission structures that repeat over the course of the campaign, the important thing is whether or not you have fun playing it.

20:06 Oh my God that Uncharted 2 MP snippet brought me back. Cameraman Jeff on Highrise. Down the Irons and Rocket Man for perks. Wow.

My dad walked in on me watching your review. He sat down and laughed with me, but he said oh yeah, "I'm subscribing to this GMan" the moment you made the Seinfeld reference.

I actually bought this game about a year ago. I honestly still love it

That Formula 1 joke in 14:29 was very good. That's quality sound acting... 😂

OMG the training part flashbacks HIT HARD

"This isn't like a Tarantino movie, it's more like Desperado."

Yeah i played this when i was younger and i always thought ruby had a good voice, but not for her character archetype, hell i played this before i ever even *saw* buffy the vampire slayer, but i always saw ruby's character not as a failure in acting/selling the character it's 100% a failure of direction, people that clearly didn't know what they designing were probably too starstruck... or horny to actually know what they're doing in terms of audio direction with Ms. Dushku, cause she has a cool design, a sick sword and a cool voice, but all of it is undersold when everything she says is either extremely underwhelming or so predictable that you could act out any cutscene she was in, in real time, having never seen them prior. this game was always such a shitty b-movie that i enjoyed it more as a teenager getting buzzed to all hell and laughing at it with my friends, and obviously thirsting over the main character lmao, wet was such a strange title to me cause it clearly had plans of *what* it wanted to do with itself and just seemingly forgot about it entirely about 30 minutes in, oh and the red screen stuff used to give me wicked headaches after prolonged hours of playing it, idk how playtesters never got headaches during development

0:35 no kidding, saints row 3 has the exact same looking prologue level

Oh shit. I remember seeing this in game informer back in the day. Man time flies!
