Just started playing this recently and I’m absolutely tickled by how it looks. The only thing that’s missing is everything being caked in CHONKY oversaturated low-res bloom so typical of late-era Xbox games. I wouldn’t be surprised if it got removed in this later HD rerelease I am playing, but if it did, it’s a crime against nature

Stranger’s Wrath is a sci-fi Western fps set in the Oddworld universe that asks the question: What if John Marston was a furry that could double jump and run on all fours?

    I had to look up Return from Darkness and it turns out that’s just what Wrath of Heaven ended up being called on the Xbox monke-beepboop

    We had Wrath of Heaven on the PS2 and played the shit out of the unlockable versus mode (remember random unlockable versus modes???)

          Co-op?! Don’t remember that at all- was that an Xbox exclusive thing 🤔

          It must have been. It was fun as shit and I remember double executions you could pull off on dudes.

          Unfortunately a lot of mid niche franchises didn’t survive past the Xbox 360/PS3

          Some of the bigger indie games sort of fill this niche for me, at least. Not quite the same, but you gotta do what you gotta do!
