Just played the demo in the recent OXM and HOLY SHIT WHY AREN'T YOU FUCKERS HYPING THIS GAME.
It's a great -- GREAT -- combination shooter/beat-em-up with flawless controls and a perfect 2D-esque camera. Even the whole alternate-reality "Russia with magic" vibe is keen. Forget that it's from Acclaim and give this bastard a try; it just reeks of polish and smart design. Obviously the cats who developed it have spent a lot of time playing Treasure games, only they left the crap at home and wedded two kickass old-school genres together really well. Best of all, they understand the single foremost design principle governing the best action games: SHIT BLOW UP REEEEEEAL GOOD.
I'm freakin' sold. Good stuff.
