The Grinder now coming to Xbox 360

News | February 8, 2010 5:36 am



The Grinder, a game originally made for the Wii to compete with such games as Left 4 Dead and Borderlands is now coming to the Xbox 360. The game has little details about it but it seems to support the isolated Left 4 Dead feeling. Though instead of taking on just zombies, you're also fighting werewolves, the dead (such as skeletons etc) and vampires, even more. This isn't like the Mythical Epic Fail known as Legendary, but from the trailer it seems to be a lot better. The Grinder includes a RPG element where you can control one of Four Characters similar to Borderlands, which also you can upgrade each of their special abilities. The Characters bios are as follows:

Quote by Wikipedia:



Hector: A Mexican bounty hunter who has tracked targets on both sides of the border. Hector is boastful, arrogant and greedy. He used to be a professional hunter, but has annoyed so many people over the years that he cannot get a job with any of the professional companies.

Doc: He wants to figure out what makes the monsters tick. Doc was a hunter for years but he left the life behind years ago when a mission went very badly. Since then, he's been working as an underground doctor.

Miko: Miko is a Japanese assassin looking for a new challenge. She was getting bored with her job, until the night one of her targets turned out to be a werewolf. Despite nearly getting killed, she found the battle exhilarating and immediately set out to take down more monsters.

AJ: An urban explorer who had a very bad experience and is looking for revenge. AJ is the sole survivor of a Slasher attack. She knows that it's only a matter of time before the unkillable monster that slaughtered her sorority sisters on a weekend camping trip catches up with her to finish the job.

Book: The secretive contact responsible for hiring the four hunters to control the outbreak.



The Grinder is using the Quantum3 Engine so that it will allow more characters and enemies on the screen, pushing the limits of the game to the maximum. High Voltage is publishing the game, who is also known for other games such as Hunter The Reckoning, which this game was inspired by, also Left 4 Dead helped it also. You should be able to pick up this game in 2011.

You don't know though, look how they took COD World at War and put it on the Wii, it went suckage, so this might turn out actually good (we all hope) XD



Well of course porting a 360/PS3 to the Wii is going to look like shit. Unless they completley rebuild the graphics engine (they won't) then this game is going to look like a port.

If the game isn't supposed to be out until 2011 I'd say that those are probably Wii picks. I'm sure the 360 version will get an upgrade (hopefully).

But graphics aren't everything, almost, but not everything, lol.
