Say what you will about WET, it was certainly a good idea at the time. Some felt that idea worked, others did not, but developer A2M wouldn't mind another crack of the whip, suggesting that there's plenty of potential for more games in the "iconic" WET universe.
"I think it’s fair to say that we definitely built a very iconic universe whose span is bigger than this first installment," said WET creative director Patrick Fortier.
I thought the game showed promise, and loved the silly Tarantino-esque vibe that was given off, not to mention those awesome rampage moments. What about you, though? Would you be interested in a WET sequel? Do you think the original game had potential that could be realized with a further game, or is it a franchise that should be forgotten? Speak your mind, or forever hold your peace.

Ahem. Anyway.
I enjoyed WET, up until the final ''boss'' at least. It had some great moments, the core gameplay was solid and they nailed the style, it mostly just had issues with repetition and slightly sloppy controls. I'm all game for a sequel. Tighten it up (WET, A2M, tight, lul lul lul), add a little more variety in there (could have really done without every 'rage' segment starting with the exact same animation) and I'd happily buy a sequel on launch.
"God damn it, it's not 'Tarantino-esque', it's 70's grindhouse, which Tarantino just happens to pay homage to."
Fixed, but yes.
And WET sucked.
Welcome to Tarantino-esque. Its ok, man.
Well, you got her arse in impractical underwear for a few seconds. Not sure I want her to get naked anyway given that she looks like Joe Perry.
Draw influences from other cool games, bring some fresh ideas and keep this series going.
2 WET.
The only thing that I myself would want to see changed is what everyone (who loves or hates Wet) is already complaining about, a proper final boss. It was really dissapointing for me because the last game I played before Wet was Wolfenstein and without spoiling it, that had a challenging, multi-part final boss battle in a good setting. To go from that to the not-really-a-final-boss in Wet was a letdown, even though I probably enjoyed Wet overall more than Wolfenstein.
So much depth.
If they could do that, I'd be happy to hang with Rubi a few more times.
