The last proper beat-em-up I put any serious time in might have been Motörhead on the Amiga, sometime in the early nineties. Maybe it's time to give the genre another chance? Judging by the trailer, this game could be hard to resist. Hopefully it turns out as good as it looks.

I'm eager to find out what makes it an adventure. Everything points to the game being more of a sandbox. It looks fun, but I usually need some sort of a story and/or goals to keep me interested.

Quoting: kneekooRead my previous posts (page 12).
