Hellboy: The Science of Evil Product Details

Released on 15/08/2008

Hellboy will provide players with fresh adventures featuring the acclaimed comic book's unmistakable fusion of action, atmosphere and humor. On the trail of a crazed witch, Hellboy uncovers a Nazi plot for world domination and must rush to defeat the crazed Hermann Von Klempt before he can exert his evil will upon a hapless world. As a visceral brawler, the game lets players unleash Hellboy's superhuman abilities as they smash their way through hordes of enemies with contextual use of the environment for added destructive power and strategy.

Hellboy: The Science of Evil Features:

  • Original storyline set in the Hellboy universe, filled with classic characters from the comic book.
  • Stunning next-gen graphics with dynamic lighting effects bring Hellboy to life like never before.
  • Explosive battle system with contextual grappling commands lets players experience Hellboy's supernatural might as he unleashes the Right Hand of Doom on his enemies.
  • Use strategy to take down hordes of enemies - toss a straggler into the crowd or manipulate the environment to create more manageable groups of enemies.
  • Play as series favorites Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman in cooperative multiplayer modes.
  • Acclaimed movie director Guillermo Del Toro, the man behind such cult hits as Hellboy, Pan's Labyrinth and this summer's monster mash Pacific Rim, may be moving closer to getting his long-gestating horror game, InSANE, into our grimy clutches.

    Originally in development at Saints Row studio Volition for THQ, the publisher recently announced it was unable to fund it and handed it back to Del Toro to shop around. According to an interview in the Toronto Sun newspaper, a new home for the game may be revealed sooner rather than later.

    "We are in talks with a very, very big company," Del Toro reveals. "I can't say who, but it's one of the big ones. They really responded to the game, they responded to what we were trying". The delay does mean that some of the work already done on the game will need to be redone, as some of Del Toro's original ideas have now been realised in other games, but he's still intent on delivering "a really immersive narrative experience".

    The exact nature of the game remains suitably shrouded in mystery, but from what Del Toro has said in the past it's an ambitious sandbox game heavily inspired by the cosmic horror of HP Lovecraft. ""We're being really, really nasty in the game," the director said last November. "We're really trying a lot of stuff that I don't think would even fly in the movies."

    Del Toro is being more hands on with the game than most Hollywood types who dabble in gaming. A big gamer, he even asked Valve's permission to cast Ellen McLain, best known as Portal's GLaDOS, as the voice of the computer AI in Pacific Rim.

Hellboy: The Science of Evil
This game is awesome i think, more for somebody than appriciates the hellboy world than just wants a game to play, if you just want a game to play, go play something else, but if your a fan of hellboy you will appriciate the in game world, enemies and such, the weapon arsenal is awesome, and as i havent yet tried it, but im sure multiplayer is too, but dont let the bad reviews fool you, they are people that dont appriciate the game as part of the hellboy world, they just want a game to play, not something that submerses you in the main characters world.

Fun game. Only worth a rental though, very easy 850 gamerscore. The other is secret achievements, which are in upcoming downloadable content.
