Hellboy: The Science of Evil trailer is chock-full of punching

Everyone's favorite stone-fisted, demonic antihero is following in the grand tradition of superhero adaptations -- begin with a cult classic Dark Horse mini-series, follow that up with a film adaptation starring the incredible Ron Perlman, and then continue to make the obligatory licensed action game of uncertain quality, in this case, the oft-delayed Hellboy: The Science of Evil. Our trademark trepidation is somewhat shaken by the above trailer's God of War-esque combat and frequent quips (delivered by Perlman himself, whose impressive video game repertoire includes voice acting roles in the Fallout and Halo series) -- has the ugly duckling we encountered at last year's E3 undergone a much-needed makeover?

you can never have enough my boy. Sure i have a whole lot but batarangs are expensive! And with gas prices the way they are how do you expect me not to worry when the batmobile needs that damn turbo power all the time?

A very BIG, welcomed improvement over the original build; which makes me happy considering Hellboy's one of the better comics out there. I'll have to keep an eye on it.

I will give it a rent. Especially because he fights cyber-apes...oh, Cy-Gor.

I like the music a lot.
Reminds me of the Prince of Persia series for some reason. :]

It looks like a fun game but I am not impressed with the graphics ... It does look really fun though

wow they really improved the graphics and character designs over the last build.. it looks a LOT better (though it still looks average of a game)

Lots of improvement, actually looks playable... still won't be getting it though.

I'd get it on Wii, the graphics aren't passable enough for any other current gen system.
Would play nicely on wii too. What's the bet the developers don't put it on wii?

Hurray for generic rock music to bring out the "action" out of any gameplay video.

We should be thankful they didn't use Mindfields by Prodigy. I love the song but does every fucking trailer which has electronica need it?

"Get ready for one HELL of a ride"- genius. Simply genius.
