Step into the boots of Grayson Hunt after a crash landing on an abandoned resort planet forces him to make a hard choice: survival or revenge. An exiled member of the elite assassin group Dead Echo, Grayson’s blind desire for vengeance finds his crew stranded on Stygia where he can finally confront the commander behind his betrayal—or get his team off the planet alive. Battle your way through throngs of Stygia’s mutated inhabitants, performing masterful kills throughout the single-player campaign—or one of 30 competitive score-challenge or 12 co-operative multiplayer maps—using Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition’s unique “Skillshot” system that rewards you for executing the most creative and deadly kills imaginable.

Tl;dr Bulletstorm is a bombastic and charming FPS game that, while generic, has the same sort of appeal as a B-list action flick. 7/10, easy recommend.
Bulltstorm: Full Clip Edition is a surprisingly nuanced game. One one hand, it's a highly generic Duke Nukem clone with the same sort of zaney action movie feel, and has very little going for it in terms of visual distinctiveness or unique gameplay. On the other, this game is an absolute blast to play, with surprisingly likeable characters, a short and sweet campaign, and a ton of over the top shooter action. Ultimately, I really enjoyed my time with this game, and I would definitely be up for a sequel, no matter how unlikely that may be.
Pros:
- While generic, the gameplay is fun, is paced well, and features a good deal of variety. Weapons feel good to fire, the melee kick is a ton of fun, and the real fun of the game comes with the Killshot system, where you get the game's currency by performing over the top trick kills during combat.
- The story is surprisingly heartfelt, with some of the most surprisingly nuanced characters I've ever had the pleasure of following. I genuinely came to like the characters in the game, which I really didn't expect from such a bargain-bin tier game. At eight hours, it's also not too short, while also not being so long that it overstays its welcome.
- A punchy and well-suited OST, which- while also generic- really gets you into the zone while playing this game. Not much else to say here.
Cons:
- Visually, this game is a mess. Lighting is heavily oversaturated, the visual effects are noticably dated (even for the game's era), and much of the art direction is aggressively generic. This game can be pretty at times, but most of it isn't exactly winning any prizes for beauty.
- This port is an absolute mess. Frequent crashes on Windows 10, often while starting the game up (although it did run for me on the second attempt at launching when this did happen); poor control mapping, with terrible consistency in keybinds (there are at least three different keys for confirming actions in the game, and none of them are what they should be), awful mouse acceleration for aiming, and some pretty frequent physics and visual glitches. In addition, there were several points where the main character, Greyson, would fail to talk in cutscenes. He would gesture and bob his head like he was meant to be talking, but his lips would fail to move, and his voice lines were conspicuously absent.
- I have to say that, despite my praise for the game's surprisingly good writing, there is a overuse of foul language in this game. I'm an Australian, I swear more than your average sailor. But there is a point where cussing becomes annoying rather than endearing. This game swears more than I did as a teenager, and that's saying something.
Conclusion:
Overall, Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is a generic mid-2010s FPS that manages to be charming regardless of its flaws. While the PC version here suffers from a amazingly poor port, it is certainly worth buying on sale, although I would add that your mileage may vary on this one. While there has been no word on a sequel, I ended this game wanting more. And that's a commendable feature in and of itself. 7/10, recommended with caveats.

A really dumb and constantly loud FPS game with super sweary dialogue, the characters speak like 13 year olds in a COD4 lobby. Most of the dialogue isn't very funny but a few jokes made me laugh pretty hard. Someone said they would kill my dick.
It's like you're trying to play an FPS game while someone is screaming "AAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHH!!!!" in your ear the whole time.
The combat is really fun and the skillshot system is pretty addictive. Basically you're scored on killing enemies in stylish ways. Crouch slide in to a guy then blow him in half with a shotgun, kick a guy on to a cactus, set a guy on fire then launch him in to the air and blow him to bits with gibs raining everywhere. That kind of thing.
There's only 8 different guns in the game but most of them are very cool including a triple barrelled shotgun which instantly ragdolls enemies and a cannonball launcher.
It's also the most Unreal Engine 3 looking game ever made, if you've played Gears Of War you'll see it straight away. Every character is a jacked weight lifter and at times it really looks like you're playing a first person GOW.
It runs perfectly and looks mostly great.
Get it.

For me, this game has everything I love - loudmouths, guns and gore. Underappreciated gem hands down.
