This government official suffers rather severe consequences for his oppressive opinion in this viral trailer for Retribution.

Dead to Rights: Retribution is an upcoming reimagining to the 2002 third-person action game franchise Dead to Rights starring Grant City police officer Jack Slate and his K-9 companion Shadow. Developed by Volatile Games and published by Namco Bandai Games America for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the game is currently slated for release on April 13, 2010. After a near four year hiatus, this marks the series' first outing onto next gen consoles.

Jack Slate will be proficient with weapons like shotguns, automated rifles, and pistols. You'll be able to carry two weapons at a time (as well as grenades), and, as with hand-to-hand combat, you'll be able to deliver weapon-based finishers that are just as devastating. Your gun won't be something you keep forever; once you empty your cartridge you can toss the gun, and then you can disarm another opponent and take his weapon. Similarly, later in the game, enemies will be able to disarm you as well.

Retribution revels in giving you the ability to dispatch multiple foes using the fighting system. Whether it's grabbing one enemy and then delivering a devastating kick to an enemy behind you, or simply putting down a foe with a bloody and forceful takedown. The new fighting system looks spot on.

Jack Slate is able to use his fists and guns, but he's also got one other weapon that might be the best of all: his partner in crime fighting, Shadow. One part wolf, one part Alaskan malamute, all parts badass, Shadow is both an AI partner that you'll be able to give orders to in some parts of the game and, in other sections, a fully playable character.
