Mad World screenshots showcase bloody action for Wii

chautemoc | May 15, 2008 | Previews | Wii 
Got a Wii? Got the itch? Mad World will fix you right up. A bloody actionfest with a visual style ripped straight out of the Sin City graphic novels (but hey, who's complaining), it looks like Nintendo has loosened up a bit. Let's just hope there aren't any tearful moments featuring the musical stylings of Gary Jules.

The title is developed by Platinum Games (the developer formerly known as Clover), who created the similar God Hand, the Viewtiful Joe series, and Okami. A trailer was leaked, but has since been taken down by Sega.
Sporting heavily stylized black-and-white visuals, the only color to be found in the game was in the fountains of blood that regularly filled the screen. According to Famitsu, ultra-violence is very much the name of the game, which stars a troubled protagonist dedicated to committing his ultimate slaughter.
