    Wanted: Dead is that type of a game where everyone 2 years from now will be saying that they **** with it since day one and that it is anWanted: Dead is that type of a game where everyone 2 years from now will be saying that they **** with it since day one and that it is an absolutely masterpiece. Does anyone remember Demon’s Souls? People hated that game so much that the Demon’s Souls remake was a PS5 launch title. Don’t listen to the nay sayers, Wanted: Dead is lit fire. People got caught off guard by its style. They forgot what video games are because of the movie video games like TLOU, Detroit and such. Turn on the accessibility options and the game plays itself. Woohoo, a legally blind non binary person just beat TLOU2 - a good day for gaming and humanity in general. Wanted: Dead just tells you to pick the **** controller and get good. The characters are insanely cool. Lt. Stone is a true female action hero like Ripley or Sarah Connor. She’s not gay, not bi-curious, not body positive, not “im’ma do it with no man” character. She kicks right in the nuts and still is a beautiful woman. The drama in this game is on point. If somebody doesn’t understand the story and what had happened and how this story is told, this is because you’ve been playing too many movie video games. Wanted: Dead is an absolute killer of a game. It’s a ten. Expand

    About time we talk Wanted: Dead here. Truth to be told I created this account to talk about Wanted: Dead. I never post reviews online. Never,About time we talk Wanted: Dead here. Truth to be told I created this account to talk about Wanted: Dead. I never post reviews online. Never, ever. This is the first time I will openly talk about a game that left an impression on me. This is probably what bipolar disorder feels like. I have been psychologically molested by Soleil and 110 Industries and it was one of the most memorable and amazing experiences in games I had in the past 5 years. Sometimes a game comes along and you buy it because of the cover art. This is how I did it. I have never seen a pink cover art on an action game before in my life. Nobody did. This is new. I come home and I start playing. My first impression is very bad. I don’t understand any of this and the game is brutally hard. First mission, I’m still not sold on it but I keep playing because I don’t know why. Usually I just toss the game if it sucks. Wanted: Dead didn’t suck at all but I just couldn’t get it. I stopped playing a lot of games mid way because they are boring. I’m looking at you God of War Ragnarok. Wanted: Dead has a fraction of GoW’s production values but somehow it keeps you entertained. Then I spent two hours picking toys in a crane game. Yes, I’m still talking about Wanted: Dead. Then I reached August and I felt like I was going to quit but when I finally kicked his ass it was a scream of joy. My GF ran into the living room to see what’s up. Then you are treated to a karaoke sequence that is real karaoke. Do you remember Just a Friend bit from Saints Row? This is exactly it but playable. Then Space Runaway. It’s an actual 16-bit SHMUP. Not a level or something. An actual arcade game was made for Wanted: Dead and when I unlocked it, I spent hours trying to beat it. Wanted: Dead surprises you every minute. The combat really opens up on the second mission when you progress further down the skill tree. The executions are gory and fun. There’s also a chainsaw. This game is a collection of randomized chaotic ideas all put together. It should not work but somehow it does and it’s a lot of fun. I’m on my second play through now. Bravo Soleil! Expand
