Wanted: Weapons of Fate currently looks like another in a slew of Gears of War imitators, with the control system almost entirely lifted wholesale from Epic’s popular action shooter. Is Weapons of Fate doomed to join the swelling ranks of turgid movie to game translations or will it buck the trend? It’s a question we feel obligated to ask of every movie to game conversion.Įarly indications from our hands-on time with the game suggest that Wanted: Weapons of Fate could well prove an interesting prospect, despite the perfunctory gameplay gimmicks that have been shoehorned into an otherwise conventional framework. However, with gamers no strangers to sloppily converted, half-baked movie related fare it’s always difficult to approach yet another example without some degree of cynicism. Upon seeing the movie version of Wanted adapted from the cult graphic novel, it was immediately obvious that it would make for perfect videogame fodder. This preview is guaranteed spoiler free, so if you haven’t seen the movie it’s okay to read on without fear that we’ll ruin the plot.
