Destroy All Humans! Big Willy Unleashed
Written by: Kristen Dunleavy, Senior Editor – Posted: Fri May 9th, 2008



In the opened-ended environment, there are a variety of ways to deal with those pesky humans. You can pick them up and throw them with a flick of the Wiimote, which never gets old. Zapping them with the Anal Probe and watching them flee while clutching their posterior and screaming is also good for laughs. Your flying saucer has similar grabbing and zapping abilities, but also comes equipped with a handy Quantum Destructor that levels everything in the area.

And then of course, is the gianormous Bob's Big Boy-esque statue you get to control, Big Willy himself. He shoots heat beams from his eyes, vomits acid, and creates shockwaves. What more could you ask for?

Running amuck and enjoying the sick humor were among my most favorite activities in this game. There were times between missions where I wasn't quite sure what to do or where to go, so overall I lacked the motivation to complete the game. It's a shame that the graphics are just so-so, because the 70's theme would have looked amazing with a better treatment.

Still, if you're a fan of the series, you'll love using the Wiimote and Nunchuck to control your arsenal of deadly goodies. If you've never played any of the DAH games, you'll find it surprisingly hilarious and entertaining. Either way, it's always fun to play the bad guy, especially if he's a foul-mouthed Furon.
