Damnation - First trailer

5 (4 ratings)

This is the first look we've had at Codemasters' new steampunk-Western in motion, a game which promises to 'make the shooter vertical'. We're expecting lots of lovely hats.

No underboob shots :( Oh and the reason the black and white sections don't really work is because they didn't drop any frames!

Not the kind of Steampunk I could go for.

Lol at how much this thing looks like Gears, it's even worse than Army of Two.

Welcome to a world of ropey animation and smudgy particle effects.

is it just me that's reminded of Oddworld: Strangers Wrath?
It is?
That's 'cos it's just me that bought it, wasn't it?

Doesn't look as good as in the pictures. Generally, it looks a bit like they're trying something cool, but not quite managing it. A lot of stuff in there, including the revenge plot (but also the rope surfing, the air battle sequence, the in-game cinematics) give me the impression that they looked really cool in the developer's imagination, but they didn't manage to translate it in the game fully.

i think it looks all right. I like the art style and steampunk western look especially, and the game doesnt look too bad for an early build. No blockbuster shooter, but I reckon it'll fun for a while.

No, the first thing that entered my mind was also Oddworld: Strangers Wrath, so you're not alone, BadMonkey.

And the sound when the guy jumps through the glass window is so underwhelming it's almost comical in a way. :)

Without the underboobs, this game ain't got a lot going for it.

Also reminded me of Stranger's Wrath. Except, you know, without the interesting production design.

Okay, so it wasn't just me. More games should have living ammo if you ask me...

I think it looks interesting. The setting looks nice, I like the idea of a steampunk western theme. Just as long as it's a better game than Wild Wild West was a movie.

It reminded me of Stranger's Wrath too.

Looks poor. Like no one engages their brains to actually think of new game concepts anymore.

Looks remarkably unremarkable.
I love western-style games, but this just looks shite
