Review: Dead to Rights: Retribution

The only thing remarkable about Dead to Rights is how completely unremarkable it is.

The line "At least Army of Two" dropped all good expectations for this game. Then again, the thought of "run of the mill" was in my mind the entire time. Either way, good and fair review John.

Huh. Looks like they should have just taken out Jack and made the game about the dog.

Nice to see that the new Dead to Rights game is doing something original. Oh, wait, no, I mean the other thing.

 

[Jared]

Well. Dosnt seem like much has changed. Shame really. Gad alot of hope for this...

Sounds like you were a bit generous with the final score John, didn't expect to see more than 2 stars after reading your thoughts on it.

Hahaha, at first I thought the dog's fight against crime became personal because his father was murdered! Now that would have been remarkable.

We need this game, now!

I think functional is to strong of a word.

See this as a friendly suggestion or an ignorant remark and tell me to do better!

I'd like to see you do better!

OT: I knew it wouldn't be a bad game, but I knew it wouldn't be good, either. All the reviews pretty much say the same thing.

I smell a bargain bin game! This is gonna sink in price faster than No More Heroes 2. Which I already saw for $20. Okay, not THAT fast. But fast.

I loved the original so whatever still gonna pick it up and give it a go for myself.

Yea I heard this game is extremly generic. Nice reveiw as always.

 

[WolfmanNougat]

Not even a gratuitous lap-dance minigame to liven things up? Bleh.

 

[FinalDream]

The original Dead to Rights was completely unremarkable in every way too! Yet somehow it was re-imagined. The mind boggles as to why!

 

[Brainst0rm]

Huh. Looks like they should have just taken out Jack and made the game about the dog.

Now there's a game I would spend money on.

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

Looks like the kind of passably entertaining game you play while waiting for something good to get released. Fun, but nothing special.

It's not a *bad* game. It's competent in all respects. It's just generic as all hell.
