Deadly Creatures was set to be a December release that was going to give us that extreme bug fighting game that was sure to be an unappreciated gem. From what we know already, Deadly Creatures has you playing as a scorpion and a tarantula, battling against other arachnids and insects. It’s promisingly dark story continues to unearth a deadly plot involving man. The game is said to push the Wii’s capabilities visually. The voice cast will include Billy Bob Thornton and Dennis Hopper, whose characters are looking for something buried in the desert.
