Death Jr. 2: Root of Evil coming to Wii (News)

Feb 15, 2008

Eidos is bringing the PSP game Death Jr. 2: Root of Evil to the Wii in Summer 2008. Check out these new screens. Developed by Backbone Entertainment, the game charts the adventures of the Grim Reaper's son. We don't like to be judgemental, but it's hard to remain calm when we see a major publisher release a game ported from a handheld that only has a Metacritic rating of 68. It's also not a good sign that Konami, the previous distributor of the ...

You know that game where you run around and hit things repeatedly? It's the same one with floating platforms, simple combos and a camera that almost gets it - ringing any bells yet?

So, it's at least cool to see a developer learn from its first time through and actually enhance the ...

An improved sequel that would have rocked our world had it been released in 2000 when these basic platforming tricks were still cool. Co-op helps, but nothing over the top here.

Jun 5, 2006

After unleashing the horrors of Pandora's Box and nearly getting grounded in Death, Jr., you'd think DJ and his stunted friends would have learned to leave ancient forces of evil the hell alone. You'd be wrong, though; in Death, Jr. 2: Root of Evil, they've apparently awakened a whole new menace. When the game hits this fall, they'll once again have to shoot, jump and slash their way through the freakish armies of the ...
