Stylish, ludicrous kills net big points in this ridiculously over-the-top first-person shooter.

This game is really great on the PC..

Something about the precision with kb&m and the leash/kick/skillshot mechanic is just really satisfying in this game. The weapons are Quake-ish, and there's no jump button - there's a slide. You basically Scorpion "get over here" bad guys, aim, and kick them into deadly objects. Electrified wall of computers? That's bonus XP. Spikes? Oh man. Set them on fire, kick them into things. Kick them off the side of tall shit. Leash them into sharp things. And you probably won't see all the skillshots for 5 hours.

Yeah, the gameplay part is quite fun on the PC. Definitely enjoyed playing through it.

I was disappointed with that game. Got it during Amazons summer sale and while it's definitely a well made game, it just did not click with me. Looked pretty on pc though

One of those games I knew I would enjoy but ended up absolutely loving it. One of my favorite "gameplay" games of this generation as far as shooters go and enjoyed the hell out of it on PC. It's up and down with the story stuff but that's second fiddle to the exquisite shooting.

Its definitely the better Duke Nukem game that came out that year

It was a pretty cool game that encouraged creative kills even if it was just finding electricity or spikes around the level.

I never played all of it, but it sure as hell was the most fun I had with a shooter this year.

Bulletstorm is hilarious. Don't take the story seriously and enjoy the novel kill mechanics.

I remember loving the Disco Inferno shootout..

Yeah, I was surprised at how well the PC version felt, still not amazing but a lot better than most console ports I think. Definitely some of the most fun I had playing a shooter though, love me some over the top action games!
