Heroes trailer (Wii)

[THATinkjar]

Ahem. In my most cinematic voice... From the creators of Killer7 comes... erm... well, I don't actually know what the heck this is. But holy moly Batman, this is one of the slickest trailers (painful, woefully out of place voice acting aside) that I've ever seen.

And the trailer is made even better by the possibilities that the Wii controller brings to the table. As you watch, you can't help but think how you might actually end up playing something like this on the Wii, and you can't help but smile.

If you only do one thing today... make it this. Check out the trailer here (http://www.thewiire.com/download.php?type=gamevideo&id=24) (about 40 MB). This is one to keep an eye on, me thinks.

That looks absolutely awesome. Can't wait!!! :D

NICE. It's probably going to be on-rails, I can just FEEL it. And yes, I hope those aren't the final voice over actors.. ouch.

Why does this look horrible to me?

Looks pretty cool. Providing I have a Wii I'll check it out. Though I've yet to play Killer 7.

Looks cool, and not too ridiculously crazy like Killer 7 so I might actually want to play it for more than 40 minutes before I shelve it.

I see the shading and gunplay stayed in.

Voice acting seems to have stayed exactly the same, maybe they've even kept a few VAs on from Killer7...not really a good thing in this case, though.

Incidentially, the name "Helter Skelter" is taken from a Beatles song from Paul McCartney; the phrase then became notorious after Charles Manson took it to be a prophecy of an impending race war.
