    THQ have let loose a series of gameplay videos from the Wii-exclusive adventure for fans of creepy crawlies: Deadly Creatures.

    Love a good dose of spiders, scorpions, lizards, black widows and snakes? It's the world of deadly creatures - where players take control of a deadly scorpion or tarantula in a bid to fight for survival.













    Deadly Creatures crawl onto shelves this October.

    I've been looking forward to proper gameplay movies for a while, and it was worth the wait. The combat doesn't look that great, but the atmosphere, visuals and animation seem fantastic. The hair on that spider's legs...*shudder*

    Preferably rhyming.

    Killing insects is pretty violent for a Wii game I suppose Smilie

    Some of those brown environments look a little bland for good gameplay, the others look alright though. The framerate needs upping and some of those textures certainly. I reckon this could work well as a online game, they could throw in a bit of waggle here and there and I seriously think it could be fun if they could apply the focus on stealth and evade as well as attack.

    I think the levels are supposed to be divided between stealth and action ones anyway LS.

    The branches/etc. are lovely in that geometry vid!

    Yeah the branches were pretty cool, but i agree with Linkyshinks about the textures. The world needs a bit more contrast. There's just too much brown everywhere. Anyway I probably won't buy this anyway. Battling bugs don't really intrigue me.

    The gameplay looks a bit generic, but besides that it looks quite good.

    Looks great! Some murky textures, but pretty sharp! My only real complaint is that the animation seems a bit choppy at times/not very organic for creatures.

    I think they've got the animation pretty spot on actually. Did anybody else see the life-like little twitch that the spider's legs did when it had stood still at one point (can't remember which video it was now)? Brilliant.

    Have a look at the snake battle, it really does seem a bit choppy Smilie I think the spider's movement in general seems a little strange, jagged or something.

    Exactly how spider does move.

    I've encountered enough of them in my room. They're not the most graceful - they're like machines.

    Hate spiders. That title screen is just ew.

    I don't see what people are possibly seeing in this, IGN is ecstatic about it. I don't think I've seen a less interesting looking game.
