There was an article on fucking POLYGON over a decade ago on why this game was fucked.
Teel deer: gamebryo was complete ass, the head of the company (bottlerocket) was an egotistical cunt and they wasted time making several different assets that never made a coherent game when melded together.

and yet if it was released as an indie game on steam in 2025/26 it would have made a few millions

Best Buy didn’t even put the fucking game out on display the day it came out. I had to wait for the guy to go in the back and get it for like 15 mins

Faggot repellant.

i walked into a gamestoop and asked the dude behind the counter about it
he said nobody pre-ordered it and nobody was buying it at all
he had some pre-order mask statues kicking around
i asked if i could just straight up have one because why not
he said fuck it and gave me one

It's not terrible. It's not even bad.
It's just mediocre.

I have it below Alice Madness Returns, because it's a little bare bones,
but it's not as bad as people say.

Sales-wise I don't know, and I don't care, because I played it.

Just look at that game and then look at the original arcade game and even the Genesis sequel. Does the PS3 game really look like a proper homage to those games or some shitty GOW knockoff?

The gameplay just didn't translate into realistic 3D. The 2D sections were ass and the 3D fights felt clunky. It has a very strong and creepy cinematic opening and fight and then it just gets lame. They also didn't even finish the fucking game. It ended on a cliff hanger

It was fun over the top gory game and had a good soundtrack

I thought it was pretty cool, I'd never played any of the old 2D ones though. I'm sure I was seeing it through eyes that didn't have the experience to judge it properly, though.

did you like the 2d levels in the game?

Jim Cummings mask and the porn are the only good things about it

Based

It was ok, I had the Xbox360 version many years ago and I couldn't get into it.

What I would really love if they made one in the same vein as Splatterhouse 3. A 2d map style one with different rooms/areas you can traverse, but with 3d assets. I'd also make it less beat 'em up and focused more on weapons. That would be cool. Out of the 3 original games 3 is the one I played the most.
