    And that is why Bulletstorm is the only FPS/Action game I look forward to. It is at least honest about what it is. 
     
    Although this "dev diary" is already too "core demographic" for me. I wish I had not seen it.

    This looks like exactly what I like best about shooters. Over-the-top, bizarre and downright outrageous. Hopefully this won't be yet another multiplayer-focussed game spun to look like a single-player game, though.

    This just seems like they went "Hey guys, let's make a game that tests our ability to say the f-word every other sentence, and when we market it let's use the word badass in every other sentence".

    Yes. And the same goes for almost every other high profile shooter out there. Bulletstorm is just honest.

    What was to be expected from the team behind Painkiller and the guys at Epic games. If the mechanics are good I'm sold, endless swearing or not.
     
    Also, I think they're just being self-consciously cynical about narrative for FPS games. Yeah, they could spout some patriotic or half-baked protest nonsense, but in the end do you really care? I'll take "motherfuck town" over "Afghanistan" or "indetermine Middle Eastern country" any day.

    It sounds like there won't be any multiplayer, but instead a co-op type game mode..

    I like what they're saying. I don't like the way they're saying it. 
     
    Game looks kickass, though.
