Let's get Wet!

No, a Slip N' Slide game wasn't officially announced (yet). However, hot on the heels of Prototype which features a pretty vicious looking male lead, Sierra has announced a new game to compete with the like of Tomb Raider -- it's called Wet. The title is incredibly over-the-top, so expect some Devil May Cry flavored antics in the mindset of Kill Bill, Prince of Persia, and whatever else involves fighting and generally crazy stunts. You take the role of Ruby, a sultry vixen of sorts who likes dishing out pain in the most acrobatic ways imaginable.

We'd talk more about the gameplay, but we should have gotten your imagination running with all the comparisons we listed above. DMC, Prince of Persia, Tomb Raider. Splotch on a soundtrack reminiscent of any of the Quentin Tarantino films and you've got yourself a stylish action title that wants you to remember it exists. We'll see if that will be the case when we get more info and screens from the game itself -- this puppy is still very early in production. With some of Ubisoft's veterans on the job, though, we've got some hope that it'll turn out nicely.

nice... didnt see any symbols at the end of this trailer indicating what platforms this would be on though, so you guys are sure its for PS3??

Nice!! Half naked, dual pistol weilding, samurai sword swingin', ninja chicks with ink in a bath tub drinkin' beer. How can it not be a hit?!

This reminds me of the girl (Revy) from the anime/manga Black Lagoon.

Where did Sierra find these 2 new games? They're going to replace EA as a publishing powerhouse if they keep it up, and I wish them all the best.

Unlike EA they dont try to mass produce the same crap.

Look like one to keep an eye on. Nice music choice too, who's version is that?

I wish it was called "Bent" - that way the tag at the end would say: "Get Bent"!!! =D

=o i know, i'm old...

Seriously, though, this game's CG looks good. Now hopefully the gameplay will look and play just as well. I'm a serious doubter of anything that's not showing gameplay... Like that other Sierra game, Timeshifter? =S forgot what it's called now, but i have doubts about that one too! =/ No gameplay in vid, no faith!
