Bulletstorm - Epic Edition

Fancy a game where you can play the role of a crazy drunken mercenary full jokes? Then make sure you pick up Bulletstorm. I haven't played much of the multi-player modes (Echoes and Anarchy) but almost finished the single player on normal.

What makes Bulletstorm unique is the use of skillshots. The game  awards players with credit for killing enemies in one of over hundred possible ways. This gives gamer a mini-game within the game - make kills fun. Works great when you had a stressful day at work and you need to let some of the steam out so you don't have to punch the manager when you go back to work the day after.


It can get old quickly though. You need special weapons, enemies and environment to get all the skill shots which can be tedious and it can become boring after a while. But it is one of those games that you can come back at any time, no huge story behind it.

It is a real shame they haven't included a versus MP game mode. It does feel as half-baked as a consequence.   The only MP mode is Anarchy, which is similar to Horde on Gears of War where you get wave after wave of enemies and you work with your team mates to clear them out.

The shooting feels a bit like GOW but there are some nice new touches such as sniper slow motion shots. There is no cover system in place but there is a slide option which allows you to move away from danger and take cover most of the times.

The best thing yet about this game was the menu to play Gear Of War 3 MP Beta which you get with Epic edition.
