At first I agreed with a lot of the commenters about Bulletstorm. I thought it was absolutely childish and stupid that they were releasing a game where you can " Blow out a man's asshole." But then I thought to myself, "Why am I being a pretentious hipster by saying I am to good to shot a man in the balls after calling him a limp-dick retard." I answered my own question. "No, I am not too good for this game."   

I have noticed a lot of video games that have been released in recent years have had really dark themes and stories. Heavy Rain was a veritable Film Noir, the Assassin Creed trilogy is about how the world is filled with dark subterfuge and ensnared in a web of lies and deception, and Mass Effect is a game about the entirety of man coming to a bloody and violent end.   

Games like Super Meat Boy and Costume Quest have been great because they are just plain hilarious to play. But I just find the satisfaction of kicking a man into a electrical transformer then screaming about how it "scared the dick off me" to bring back great feelings from my childhood. It's like the first time you picked up a hooker in Grand Theft Auto when you were 13 years old, who didn't sit there and get a chuckle out of it?
I don't know if the game will actually be made or produced well but give it a chance. Your inner child will thank you

Well it's good because it's ridiculous.
A lot of games need a lot more ridiculousness.
 

Personally I think the dialogue is absolutely hilarious (son of a dick? How have I never heard of that before?!) but I'm still on the fence for the actual game... Hopefully Amazon has a preorder credit deal which would go a long way to getting me to buy it.

" Well it's good because it's ridiculous. A lot of games need a lot more ridiculousness.   "

All the bombastic action and ludicrously atrocious dialogue seem perfectly fine to me, I'm just worried the gameplay with devolve into "use whip thing, shoot then kick dude off cliff/into wall/into nearby environmental hazard"  over and over again...

Sometimes it's good for a game to have an extreme amount of stupid. That's why I'm gonna love Bulletstorm.

"We'll see ... depends what they do with it. There's gotta actually be a good game under that.  I fear it might get old pretty quickly.  "

I'm not interested in it because I'm so sick of Steven Jay Blum. He's in more games than Nolan North. I won't be able to stand playing 8 hours with him being all gravely.

If it sounds good to you, then go for it. Me? I'm just not the kind of person who enjoys ridiculousness of that level. Same reason I can't get into Platinum games...

Oh god it all seems so lame and forced to me, I don't find it funny at all. It just seems like pre-teen schoolyard jokes and bad shock humor. I'll get my one liner fix from duke nukem.

I appreciate the games that are overtly over the top (Bulletstorm), but when a game attempts to be serious and fails....then I get sad. 
 
Anyway....Bulletstorm, YEAH!

I think it looks cool, but the Bulletpoints and that "Meet the Characters" trailer were just stupid, and not in the good way.

I was considered to buy Assassin's creed brotherhood PC version which is coming the same date as Bulletstorm release (Feb, 22nd). but I think that I am done with AC (AC1, AC 2). enough. I changed my mind. I will try bulletstorm. gameplay demo looks awesome. but why do I feel some combination game like singularity, the forced unleashed, halo like, vanquish, of course, gear of wars?   

" ... gear of wars?    "  

I totally agree, everything is really dark lately, it works but its nice to take a break from games like that with something like Bulletstorm. Bayonetta was amazing for me for this reason.

Dicktits, yes dicktits!
 
I think I'll hate this game so...

The demo was fun, but it's one of those games that will get boring after a couple of hours, imo...

well after playing the Killzone 3 beta and the demo for this.  My mind is perhaps changed (it was gonna be Killzone now and Bulletstorm later).  Think I may get this game instead.  Bulletstorm just seems like  a lot of fun and I've been looking up MP stuff...there is a mode called Anarchy which is basically 4 player horde mode in which you get to next waves by racking up a certain amount of points.  Showed guys kicking enemies back and forth...looks really fun.  Gotta have that.

I'm not worried about it being ridiculous or stupid, I'm worried about the gameplay being bad.  They shot themselves in the foot by having any of the skillshots disabled in the demo, because it makes the game seem repetitive and experimentation seem unrewarding.
Edit: gameplay POSSIBLY being bad.  Should probably clarify that.

I think it's just Steve Blum doing his Rad Spencer voice that makes me feel upsetty inside. It just sounds all douche and no self awareness. Game does look promising though.
