Review: Sin and Punishment (Wii virtual console), by Stephen Hilber
-Japanese import for the N64. Made by Treasure, creator of other games such as Dynamite Heavy and Ikaruga. Rail shooter. Never released in America because Japan hates profit.
-This features that girl/guy from the assist trophy in Brawl. You know, the hot chick with the short-shorts who's actually a dude.
-Who is this little girl talking to me?
-The game is basically about killing as many things as possible throughout the level.
-Like most Treasure shooters, it ramps up in difficulty very quickly.
-Level design is well done, and there are about 30 different bosses, all of which are supposedly very interesting and fun to fight. Everything else is basically just a warm-up to that.
-There's a story, but it's forgettable.
-Fun to play, relaxing in that it lets you just get to the killing.
-How does this hold up today? It hasn't really lost any of its "fun factor," despite the graphical quality. Of course, we've kind of reached the stage where the graphics are so bad that they're tolerable in a retro sort of way. Worth the $12 to buy it.
Everyone who didn't show up to this meeting is horrible.
