The good:
- Gameplay is decently fun.
- Gunplay is also fun with a decent collection of weapons.
- Art style aged well.
- There's many challenges and collectibles that spice things up.
- Story is good, characters are good with memorable interactions.
- Dialogue is funny.

The bad:
- Levels are too linear and "scripted".
- There's very little exploration or branching paths.

The ugly:
Trishka is a typical Mary Sue. She gets to hit the male protagonist without any consequences. Which is a typical sexist trope in media.

That's about it. Definitely worth it on sale if you can ignore the cringe writing of Trishka.

It is entertaining, negligible grinding required to add more weapons & upgrades. Difficulty is well balanced; not like those games which require very skilled players. It is a short game so doesn't waste time with side quests. Graphics quality is decent from the present standard. It runs smoothly, no FPS stutter or graphical glitches. It crashed once unexpectedly but it only cost me 5 minutes extra. Definitely worth a buy on Sale.

This game is fun as hell, but every other aspect has issues - especially the story (and writing in general, to a lesser extent).

However, I do not care because holy shit is this fun as fuck.

The skillshot system is a great way to incentivize varying playstyles and taking advantage of your surroundings while also being a good currency system (you [i]have[i] to get kills to get money, so why not do the cool combos along the way?)

I could go into more detail about the rest of the game (like I usually do), but this is one of the few times I don't care enough to do so.

This is a fun & flashy combat system wrapped up in a serviceable yet flawed story.

Go buy it (when it's on sale)!

VERDICT:
I've had this game sitting in my library for a while now, never had the time to play it until now and I managed to complete it in a few days, it's a pretty good game but easily forgettable in terms of story. I mainly played it for the gameplay, it's pretty amazing on how you can kill your enemies. Certainly wouldn't pay the asking price... in fact, i'm pretty sure I got this in a humble bundle, still a hidden gem and worth playing purely on the slaughter of your enemies.
Total Score = 77/100.

My only major complaint about this game was that it was much too short. Superb otherwise.

Anfangs relativ Unterhaltsam. Auf Dauer leider Eintönig.

Ab der Hälfte konnte ich es nicht mehr erwarten wann es endlich vorbei ist.

Negatives:
-Gegner KI frisst Munition
-Selbst hält man nicht so viel aus und muss ständig wieder in Deckung gehen.
-Deine Crew schießt zwar trifft aber nix, im Vergleich treffen die Gegner aber sehr gut!
-Obwohl das Spiel neu aufgelegt wurde in einer Besseren Version hat es weiterhin bugs!

Ridiculous, pretentious, vulgar and most importantly, boring. The game is just boring. Gameplay - stand and shoot, and if you get bored you can pull or kick. Shooting isn't interesting at all, you literally just stand there and hold down a button, the enemy first stands and then falls. It's so toothless, tasteless and just plain crookedly implemented and presented... In general, I endured only until the episode with the rolling wheel, then I did not play. I have no idea how the game has positive reviews, I can only note the good graphics, and the rest - generic garbage. "5" is only because may be somehow i just "missed" all the fun(nah)

Bulletstorm does "dumb fun shooter" right. It's not the greatest game of all time. but it's far from the worst game of all time, and it knows what it's about. You're not going to get a tale of legend that will be remembered for years to come, and you're not going to get such an incredible shooter that you're mourning the second it's over. What you will get is a handful of hours where you can enjoyably blast face and kick ass all over the planet, and you even get to be the good guys. It's a great game to kick back with a brewski or two-ski and watch the action unfold.

Bulletstorm's greatest strength is its creativity- you're given a kick that can launch enemies forward and a leash that can grapple enemies to you. There are a million environmental hazards strewn about the map, from pits of doom to sharp-as-razors cacti, to exposed wire carrying deadly amounts of voltage, and the list goes on. With these two tools in your repertoire, you're unleashed upon the masses to get kills in the most outrageous and outlandish ways possible in order to accrue what basically amounts to "cool points", which is the currency you'll use to upgrade your weapons and buy ammo. I loved this mechanic, because it meant the amount of money available to you was directly correlated to how badass you were being. If you go through and play this game like CoD, you're going to be rocking the bare minimum for your playthrough, and I thought this was a cool way to encourage engagement with the game's mechanics.

The weapons themselves were a ton of fun to play with as well; I particularly enjoyed the sniper rifle, which utilized a remote capability on its bullets, so once you fired, you'd be in direct control of the bullet itself, which led to some awesome skill shots. You've got your basic arsenal you'd expect as well- an assault rifle, a pistol, a shotgun, but even these had alternate fires that could shake up your gameplay. For example, the assault rifle could load a whole magazine into a single shot that would instantly vaporize an enemy, to which the game would award you cool points and display "BONED" to signify the enemy's current status.

I can't say that Bulletstorm's story did anything in particular for me. "Space mercs go kill people, uh-oh, their commanding officer was lying to them, time to betray him, but whoops, he betrayed us first, oh no!" It's serviceable; it provides an excuse for us to keep moving along and is passable enough that I didn't straight-up ignore the cutscenes. It's predictable and campy, but has just enough oom-pah-pah to keep your attention.

If you're the type of person who wants to shut off their brain every so often and just play something, this is the perfect game to kick back with. It's creative, it's fun, it's flashy; it's the Michael Bay of video games, really.

Bulletstorm parece no começo uma cópia de gears of wars. Mas feio. Tudo parece ter sido finalizado sem acabamento, se apoiando apenas na engine da Epic. Os personagens parecem o primeiro rascunho da unreal engine e são todos iguais na motivação e design. Os inimigos estão ali somente pra você ter algo pra atirar. O jogo até explica algo sobre eles mas não faz sentido. O fator principal do jogo é o chicote que você usa que serve pra puxar itens e inimigos. Mas depois da metade do jogo, seu uso acaba ficando bem chato. O legal é explorar formas de matar os inimigos e as armas que você pega. História boba e trilha sonora média. Serve pra passar o tempo. É só.

A decent little playthrough, pretty lackluster in every department. An ode to the early 2000's FPS games, with a very linear path and a whole lot of a few different enemies, with a few different guns. The dialogue was absurd, if I 12 I would have thought it was hilarious. Only redeeming qualities were the kicking and pulling slow-mo abilities and the short length of the game. Extremely generic and there are plenty of other better games in this genre, but if your bored and see it on sale for like $2 give it a go.

Wow... this was not good. The story was very generic, the Madworld point system failed at making the game play less repetitive and more fun, I hated most of the characters, and they did a terrible job at the worldbuilding. Not to mention they also thought there would be a sequel so we got a shitty cliffhanger ending.

Bulletstorm is a an FPS on rails (there's only ever really one way to go) and uses cover shooter principles to regenerate health. There are no med packs to collect or buy here and the only thing you can upgrade are your weapons. The main character looks like Slaine the Barbarian from 2000AD, but acts like Jack Black on amphetamines, with the cringy gags to go with it. You play this character - Grayson or Grey for short and the game essentially revolves around you leading a small group of ex-assassins against your former Boss and his army standing between you and him. The initial couple of scenes don't really matter and I'm not sure you can even die in them. There is little training to be undertaken, despite the rather cool laser whip you are given early on and it all speaks to the intuitive and basic nature of the controls in the game.

Bulletstorm has a secondary meta-objective despite the 'get your boss' storyline and that is to make and find as many different ways to kill your enemies as you can. The more of these you do the more 'skill points' you receive and this is the currency of the game that will buy you ammo and upgrades at 'Dropboxes' scattered at the start of each level and key regenerative points. And there are plenty of creative ways to kill opponents, only rarely in the set pieces might you run out of ammo, but if you do then you are using it wrong and need to rethink your game plan and weapons choice. Usually you are given hints at the weapon to use by drop cases just before you need them, they are full of the ammo you should use for the imminent boss encounter. That aside, you'll probably develop a knack with certain weapon combinations and prefer those and sufficiently upgraded they will work to the end of the game in combination with your laser rope.

The story is over the top and a bit naff to begin with, but you soon get into it and there are some character developments and nice plot twists. One gripe is the simplistic nature of it, being a PC port. The final combat scene against the end boss is just a combination of button pushes at prompted intervals to win the final battle. The weapons on offer are a standard variety, machine gun, shotgun, sniper rifle, grenade bomb thrower and so on. They are nothing special and there is little different in reload time on the heavier ones, but they do carry less ammo, so the standard measure of power vs shot number (rather than re-fire rate) is used to temper weapon selection. This works well because the levels are well designed with wide open areas having limited cover, crowded areas, multi-levelled areas where you or the enemy can significantly have the high ground and close, narrow short corridors. Obviously these various elements favour different weapons, the shot gun in the corridor, precise shooting to hit some enemies in specific places, etc and the levels will always require you to use a combination of levels to best get through it, meaning you can't rely on one gun and perfect its mechanics alone to succeed at this game.

Overall though, Bulletstorm has a solid mechanic - the use of the laser rope and the movable cruise missile of bullet time at it's core and runs smoothly with no crashes on a modern rig. It is accompanied by a loud and ripping metal backtrack throughout and the tension is nicely ramped up at various occasions to harness that 'just one more level' desire.

Great game, thoroughly recommended.

Sometimes the humor can be a little cringey for modern times but man is this game absolutely insane. It a circus for guns basically. I had so much fun kicking dudes into spikes, grabbing them with my electric leash and blowing their heads off, or filling them full of lead from a multitude of destructive weapons. This game is a smashing good time and definitely is an under rated gem. If you love fast paced FPS action then check out Bulletstorm. It's an ode to everything action packed from the 90s.

Like most FPS games that take the piss, Bulletstorm's story is loud, obnoxious and kinda cringe. What separates is from other shooters of its caliber is the player's goal: to stack as many points up as possible with unique kills. I'm surprised at just how many kinds of kills the game registers as unique. Both firing modes of each weapon has their own, as do specific enemies and specific setpieces. You're rewarded for turning enemies into fireworks, sniping them in the balls, or (my personal fave) pulling enemies into cactuses with your rope. It's a really fun core mechanic and I'm sad that Epic didn't expound on it with sequels to Bulletstorm or with similar hyperviolent titles like Gears. At least you get to listen to Steve Blum for eight hours.
