Just started playing this recently and I'm absolutely tickled by how it looks. The only thing that's missing is everything being caked in CHONKY oversaturated low-res bloom so typical of late-era Xbox games. I wouldn't be surprised if it got removed in this later HD rerelease I am playing, but if it did, it's a crime against nature
Stranger's Wrath is a sci-fi Western fps set in the Oddworld universe that asks the question: What if John Marston was a furry that could double jump and run on all fours?
Thief: Deadly Shadows and Tenchu: Return from Darkness were 100% my shit back in the day lol
One title that SHOULD have an actually good new game but doesn't yet.
Picture this:
Sekiro combat but with bigger consequences/vulnerability to incentivise the stealth approach.
Proper stealth options.
Hitman-style open world levels.
GADGETS GADGETS GADGETS to make loadouts for levels.
It should have happened already but we're being held out on. FromSoftware even own the rights and they're holding out on us.
I remember when the first Sekiro teaser dropped and everyone was like
OMG NEW TENCHU for a minute.
I had to look up Return from Darkness and it turns out that's just what Wrath of Heaven ended up being called on the Xbox
We had Wrath of Heaven on the PS2 and played the shit out of the unlockable versus mode (remember random unlockable versus modes???)
The co-op mode slapped, too! I really miss kinda mid stealth games lol
Co-op?! Don't remember that at all- was that an Xbox exclusive thing 🤔
Unfortunately a lot of mid niche franchises didn't survive past the Xbox 360/PS3
It must have been. It was fun as shit and I remember double executions you could pull off on dudes.
Some of the bigger indie games sort of fill this niche for me, at least. Not quite the same, but you gotta do what you gotta do!
