I finally gave it a chance.
Over a decade after purchasing this game (and hating it) I decided to give Blue Stinger a second chance. What I found was a fun survival horror game that did not take itself too seriously. It is basically what Dead Rising would be if it came out in 1999. Blue Stinger has random people in need of saving, silly weapons and clothing, tons (for the time) of enemies in your way, and cheesy situations. It makes me wonder if some of the Dead Rising developers had anything to do with Blue Stinger. If you can get past the goofy voice acting and awkward controls you will have a good time.
