I was just looking for more details on this game and came accross a decent screenshot on the new official Wii site:

I'm quite interested in this game, should be fun. Nice looking game too by the looks of it.

I saw that too. I would like some more info about this game. It sounds fun though! You play as a dude who hits robots with a HUGE hammer.

The more screenshots are revealed the more I'm thinking the rumor about a X800 level GPU sounds about right. Screen looks nice, gameplay sounds interesting if not shallow. I hope theres more to it than just smashing things mindlessly.

For example this screenshot Teasy posted.

Some gameplay videos are up at IGN. If they can get the prodution level up to GOW2 level, this game could be a hit. They need to add more variety to the moves and strategies.

Apparently playing it is fun, at least what I can gather from the impressions so far. But it severly lacks substance. So they'll need to make it game, not just a demo before they'll release it.

Exactly, they should add some platforming elements to the game. If I was in charge of this game project, I would add stages where you would climb your way up a huge pyramid-like structure hammering away at enemies but at the same time strategically destroy rock formations to "create" a path to the top where you fight a "boss". I would give the game a purpose for destroying formations.

Just some examples. Destroy a brick wall and use the bricks as thrwoing weapons. Hammer a big tree and crush enemies when the tree falls. Hammer key structures of builldings to make it collapse on boss enemies. Create huge potholes for enmies to fall into. Or weaken structures so it'll break under the weight of enemies. Hammer at tanks of water or some other liquid to short circuit the robots etc etc.
