  1. Destroy All Humans!: Big Willy Unleashed has its moments but they are primarily found in the first city, and while the Vietnam and Fantasy Island spoofs find their marks, there is far more material from the 1970s worth mining.
  2. It's hackneyed and aged, but GTA-style games are a rarity on Wii, so you could do worse. [Apr 2008, p.77]
  3. So the game play isn't new or innovative - in fact fans of the series will find it to be a little too similar to the first two to be truly 'new.' But the one liners - the one liners almost make up for it. At one point we were laughing so hard we missed the police shooting at us and died, having to 'start over.'
  4. In the end, Destroy All Humans: Big Willy Unleashed is a fun idea with poor implementation and some of the un-funniest moments ever captured in a videogame.

    DAH: loved it DAH2: Loved it even more DAH:BWU: ... WHAT THE HELL X( the one liners just about save it... as does the comedic value of a few of the weapons. It takes some getting used to and the upgrade system is a bit sucky compared to the previous two... and there's one mission at the moment which reminds me sooo much of that highly annoying Coit Tower one in DAH2.... Fans beware, it won't be what your expecting from DAH... Expand

    This destory all humans game is good. It is probaly the worse DAH game but that doesn't mean it's bad. All the DHA games are well polished and have good controls. What makes this game not as great is the controls. The ufo controls are easly the worse. I am renting it at the moment and it was worth it. Not sure if i would buy it but a good fun game definatly worth renting. Expand

    As a fan of the DAH! franchise, I was very disappointed at first. When I started playing this game, I was thinking, "Wow! How awesome is it! DAH! on the Wii!" Once I got to the 2rd area, I realized it wasn't. I realized the voice actors we fell in love with in the first two weren't there, the events with the random kid that would bomb people Crypto was after contradicted the story set at the end of DAH!2, and the jokes were half-arsed. Not to mention, the game was way too short. There were only four really short levels with only half of the amount of objectives were got in the first two DAH! games. Maybe this is all because it wasn't from the original company that made the game. Tear drops. Expand
