So So Shooter ( X360 )
You know I went into this game with low expectations and didn’t think it was all that bad. The story is cheesy with Matt Hazard being a washed up video game hero making fun of the very video game he is in. I think the game was long enough that ...

Only Minute Fun ( X360 )
The concept of this game seems to be an achievement whore's dream, but I just could not bear to plod through this redundant mess.  Not only are the controls lackluster in so many ways, the presentation shows it age almost immediately.  While I understand what the developers where trying to ...

Full of unrealized potential, Eat Lead disappoints on many fronts ( X360 )
Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard is a game that should have been better.  Despite excellent voice talent, a (mostly) humorous script, and writers who are obviously passionate about games, Eat Lead is a jangled mess of a game that falls victim to many of the foibles and clichés ...

Charming, but Boring ( X360 )
While this title tries to be a pastiche on gaming past and present, what it ends up being is a relatively boring game with cute little quirks that lose their humor due to the simple fact that the game is still a 3rd person cover shooter.StoryYou play as the has-been ...

Can a cliche ridden game jokingly be any good? ( X360 )
Don't be fooled by the title, Matt Hazard is a new video game character. One riddled with all the clichés you'd expect in a video game that pokes fun at video game clichés. The only problem is by poking fun through it's incredibly dumb AI and ridiculously trivial and repetitive ...

Game Parody, Bland Shooter ( X360 )
 I’ve always felt there was a difference between being humorous and having a sense of humor. It is actually a slight distinction because to be funny you need to be talented enough to craft a good joke. Having a sense of humor though is different, because you’re willing to take ...

The Axl Rose of gaming. ( X360 )
Eat Lead : The Return of Matt Hazard : A Meta-third person Meta-cover-based Meta-shooter. Forgetting that Eat Lead is billed as a spoof of the video game industry, lets talk about the gameplay first. Your objective, more often than not, is to go from Point A to Point B in ...

Just watch Dr. Horrible again instead ( X360 )
Cross-posted with my site gammatesting.com. I say this a lot: “Comedy is hard.” I don’t do comedy in my own writing. I throw in some funny here and there, sure, but usually to relieve the tension or because some amusing moment grows out of the larger narrative. But I can’t ...

Generic shooter with an interesting twist ( X360 )
You take on the role on Matt Hazard a washed up gaming action hero who's career has taken a slid recently.  Like all washed up gaming action heroes you now eat and drink too much and stay at home all day watching TV.  Suddenly the game developer you work for ...

Eat Lead - Review ( X360 )
Eat Lead is one of those games that flew under the radar of most peoples "games for 2009" list. I for one didn't even realise it was due for release. So I popped it into my 360 and had a look, what I found was a fun game that made ...

I liked it ( X360 )
I like it. Really, I did. Although the game may be short, and the achievements are a joke to get, the gameplay itself really wasn't too bad. I beat it in 6 hours. Its short, but the game overall was fun. The graphics are fine, the gameplay is fine, the ...

From my blog... please check out: seanevansblog.wordpress.com ( X360 )
As much as I love the industry, I’m very much aware that a lot of games are fundamentally stupid. Even within the few decades of the medium’s existence, a lot of our most revered titles are absolutely ripe for parody. Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard solely exists to ...
