Games with this feel?
William Bell
Alexander Brown
I'm also curious about this. The only game I can think of with this sort of feel is Batman Arkham asylum

Nothing really. Video games tend to change the setting as much as possible to avoid boredom.
Watch BuyBust, it's a better sequel to The Raid than the pretentious Raid 2 was.
Noah Bailey
blood trail vr
Jose Johnson
fuckin loved this film
dare I say the K-word?
Gabriel Scott
heavy action with minimal plot? wwe?
Isaac Flores
tlou 2 unironically feels like playing an intense action thriller
Grayson Adams
how in the fuck is buybust better?
Isaac Foster
Sick alright I'll check it out. My buddies and I have been working through all the modern martial arts kino.
Just watched Night Comes For Us and Triple Threat. Triple Thread was garbage, skip it. Was bad at the 2 things it needed to be good at, camera work and choreography.
Lincoln Bennett
god I wish. Hotline Miami is about as close as you get.

Jason Butler
It's an authentic mid budget martial arts action film with characters trapped in one location and besieged by criminals, just like The Raid was.
The Raid 2 is a grandiose tale about betrayal and loyalty with opera music and superhero villain criminals with dumb weapon gimmicks that would be stupid and out of place in a 70's martial arts movie. Very embarrassing.
Thomas King
It's a common phenomenon, the second iteration usually goes a bit too far.
Halo 2
Metal gear solid 2
Resident Evil 2
Gears of War 2
All great games but feel over the top compared to their predecessors. I think The Raid 2 is amazing btw
David Cooper
How's the lead actress in this? I'll be really surprised if she can pull an action film off, it's just as absurd to me as Megan Fox being the lead in an action film.
William Morales
Never seen it, but I've heard good things about the SPL: Kill Zone trilogy.
Check out some Johnnie To flicks and No Tears for the Dead + The Man from Nowhere too, they're not bad.
Tyler Rogers
Definitely happens too much imo.
Die Hard, Ip Man, First Blood, John wick, they all have to raise the stakes on their initial movie which is just "Movie happens in PLACE" then they say "OH WAIT, now movie happens EVERYWHERE" and the loses the main focus.
Nathan Fisher
F.E.A.R. unironically.
Charles Barnes
Raid 2 was great. I loved how the fleshed everything out and the fights were all still fantastic.
David Fisher
Solid. She's probably not gonna blow your mind. For a movie with a budget of $1.6 million US you should be pleasantly surprised.
Owen Nelson
The last of us part 2
Nicholas Lee
Does Buybust have the same type of Martial Arts action as Raid?
John Harris
Haven't seen Buybust but Raid 2 was basically their take on Infernal Affairs/The Departed which by now the concept is overdone. Though the action in Raid 2 was still top notch the story was kinda snooze.
Leo Lewis
Does TLOU2 have intense martial arts combat alongside SWAT teams in a single building where everyone wants to kill you?
Noah Moore
Any beat em ups that go vertically or up a tower instead of left to right? Didn't Final Fight technically go from streets to the top of a building?
Logan Hughes
Not exactly. It's a bit like The Raid + Assault on Precinct 13. Or the parts in The Raid where he can't just beat the shit out of everybody. It's on Netflix (iirc) anyway.
Jeremiah Perez
The atmosphere of desperation is there but the pointless drama really dampers it. Didn't really compare to be honest.
Alexander Bailey
Give Night Comes for Us a shot, it's extremely graphic so heads up if you're watching with someone squeamish. It's real good fun, no fat on the story it's a vehicle to get from cool action scene to the next with attachment to the characters.
Seen No Tears for the Dead and Man From Nowhere, solid flicks as well but I felt action took more of a backseat. Not a bad thing, just something a bit different from The Raid.
Yeah I agree, but movie was really long too and the travel took away from the action. The first Raid was all in one spot so action pretty much never stopped it was insane.Love the second still, but I felt the first was better as a more pulpy action movie.
Nathaniel Nguyen
Agreed on that. The Raid 2 really banking on the homages way too much, there's so little new excitement coming from it.
Cooper Howard
Crisis Beat
Dylan Bailey
Breakdown. I guess.
