  • Summary: Based on Universal Pictures' action-thriller Wanted, this game promises to deliver the same fantastic visual style, in-your-face attitude and edge-of-your-seat action as the blockbuster motion picture. The game continues the story of hero Wesley Gibson, picking up the action where the film leaves off and creating an entirely new chapter exploring both Wesley's journey to becoming an unmatched überassassin and the epic fiction of "The Fraternity." Featuring intense third-person action, the Wanted video game will take combat to the next level with iconic moves -- such as "Curving Bullets" and "Assassin Time" -- drawn directly from the film, as well as an innovative, multi-layered cover mechanic.… Expand

    Wanted: Weapons of Fate, surprisingly, is not only better than a typical movie-licensed game, it’s better than a typical action game.

    I have nothing against short games, so long as there is proper incentive to play multiple times. Wanted lacks any such incentives.

    This game is just as enthralling as the movie, but why it has to last about as long? What saved it is the novel gameplay that makes replaying fun. But it's a great pity that there's no multiplayer at all, I'd love to see what bullet curving would do to it. [May 2009]

    A stunt-filled shooter in the vein (but not the league) of Stranglehold, it's a game that takes control away, reverts to how things used to be done, and judders between debilitating combat and haywire presentation. [May 2009, p.92]

    I liked the game but I wish I would have known that it was so short and I would have rented it instead of paying over $50. Very Disappointed.

    Sadly I did not realize this was a console to PC port game. As with most movement controls are a tad sluggish and although WASD movement works, considering most of the time you are wanting to hide behind items, the combination of movements and another key makes things unwieldy when you are also trying to shot things. Some of the concepts as well as the graphics are nice; however, just like games like Jericho, Criminal Intentions, and a few other ported to the PC, this one did not last long on the hard drive and I'm sad I spent the money for it.… Expand
