Bulletstorm Review

I promise you people i will update brand spanking new stuff soon but ive decided that i will go back a couple of weeks and review a game that i have been playing a lot which is Bulletstorm.

Well what can i say about Bulletstorm? The game itself is beautiful, obviously it isnt up to scratch with Halo Reach but its Epic doing what they do best. Destroyed beauty.

The game brings a fresh new look on the first person shooter genre and gives players the option to kill the boring way or be rewarded with more points for taking a little longer to line up a shot and cause some real damage. Which leads me onto my next point. The Kills, now the kills in bulletstorm arent the most original but its the titles that get me. My personal favourite has to be MERCY which is where you shoot an enemy in the balls and shoot/kick thier head off whilst they kneel before you crying. 

The story is your typical framed hero who is out for redemption against a high military officer who is to blame for all thier problems. And pair that with a bestfriend who is now half cyborg and in a constant battle in his head and a chick who is willing to and i quote "kill your dick" you get an interesting story with some nice twists, funny gags, and lots of gore

The gameplay is not as heavy and slow as gears and doesnt supply you with much cover but it makes up for it with easy to kill bots and a hell of a lot of blood and explosions. Seriously if michael bay could make a war movie this is it. another main point about this game is the Dialogue. Very adult but at the same time it keeps your inner child at bay with dick jokes to spare. The characters supply you with enough laughs to entertain you and yet keep the game grounded and open for people to grow attached to the characters which makes the story more believeable.

Heres a look at the dialogue of Bulletstorm:

All in all. its a great game. the story is good and told at a steady pace. the characters are likeable (or not in some cases) and the gameplay is something else. I highly reccoment buying this game and with Brink around the corner it could be the dawn of a new style of F.P.S. games
