Yep. It's the devil arm we receive after defeating the boss Beowulf. It's extremely effective against Vergil's 3rd form. Especially when he starts regenerating his health when in his DT'd form. Using Beowulf's Killer Bee move 3 times knocks him out of his DT'd form instantly.
Anyway I just played through X-Men Origins: Wolverine for like an hour now & WOAH! I'm totally zomed. It's fantastic, least to say. So much action in the very first hour is simply amazing. The game looks good & plays pretty smoothly as well. But that's not the point to focus on right now. What I'm here to talk about it is the level of gore & brutal action in this game. It's like Logan is on super steroids & has unleashed rampage. The kills are extremely brutal. Decapitating enemies is like breaking thin wafer sticks for this guy.
For all the hack-en-slash lovers, get this one ASAP. It's been hell of a long time since we got a half-decent X-Men game. With the earlier ones being half-arsed ports, I had given up all hope. After playing this game, I have some more faith in Raven Software thankfully.
I just completed one huge boss fight & trust me it was no cakewalk. This boss was like huge. I'll have the screenshots in a while now. Graphically, it shares the traditional ultra-shiny texture look to it which almost all the UE3 games sport. The only graphic setting you'll find is resolution change. NO AA & NO AF. So force it or do whatever you want, it won't help much. Nevertheless, it still looks pretty good. Clipping issues still persist from time to time.
Optimisation is thankfully well done. I retain 62fps on an average with minor hic-ups here & there. So rest assured, it isn't power hungry. Gameplay is a mix of almost every hack-en-slash title available. So far I was only able to increase my health & gain a rage ability. Rage allows us to perform insane spinning claw combos for a certain time. It diminishes when the bar below the health meter depletes. You can gain them later on by killing more enemies. You can perform some lunge manoeuvres which allow you to throttle in mid air & perform a dash attack. This is superb if you're able to perform it on an enemy who is in mid-air. You can actually intercept him & beat the crap out of him.
There are abilities to gain & upgrade later on in the games as well. So something pretty much "inspired" from Devil May Cry series. Also a noteworthy feature called 'Feral sense' is added wherein it will show you the direction you need to head into (if you're lost) & also allows you to reveal interactive objects. Animations are smoothly rendered. So no issues there. This is probably the most brutal X-Men game I have ever seen. A must have for gore fan.
