When Activision dropped the first trailer for X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I said it made me want to see the movie. This newest trailer, thank goodness, makes me want to actually play the game.
I had a chance to go hands on with it with when Activision came out to New York City for Comic Con, and I was reasonably impressed with that I saw. Not only did the game look pretty nice (Unreal Engine 3 and all), it played like a solid third-person action titled. And it was incredibly brutal, with Wolverine tearing through enemies’ limbs with his claws, and making a general mess of things.
While you can’t see any of the bruality in the trailer (called “Uncaged”) after the jump, I urge you to use your imagination. That part towards the end of the trailer where Wolverine hops on the helicopter? He leaves a nice little mess of blood behind as a result. If that’s your kind of thing, you’ll want to keep your eye on X-Men Origins: Wolverine when it hits shelves in May.
