K.O.R.E stabs Microsoft in back, runs to Wii...

The Destroy all Humans esque action platformer is set to bring hope in the midst of a violent storm of shovelware and lackluster games for the Wii.

K.O.R.E's roots are a 2003 game called The Kore Gang, originally destined for the original Xbox. The project was seemingly put on hold and now, to appeal to a larger target audience, the massive Wii userbase, K.O.R.E now wears the Wii's colours.

You get to run around as one of three characters in metal suits and use the suits to end enemies and solve puzzles. Maybe THIS will explain it better than I ever could.

In my opinion, this game has potential. However, if the mechanics of the suit don't feel completely natural then the game will be spoiled. That said, the game looks fun. It has a Rachet and Clank feel to it, from the looks of the video.

This game actually looks really cool.

Reminds me of N64 Rare games.

Yeah, I was thinking of Ratchet and Clank when I saw this a few months back as well.

Of course, in a day where most action platformers must have multiplayer to survive (in the case of R&C), we'll have to see how addictive the simple puzzle-solving and collect-a-thon elements are.

Main reason, Wii sells alot, better chance of selling high amounts of Games, getting more money.

Love the artistic style they put on this game but it needs some work the animation no?

probably not for the hardcore gamer. Wish they had better graphics - looks almost like the GC graphics for Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly.

But if they can pull out some Wii-controller motions, it could be a big seller.
