As someone who hasn't experienced bulletstorm before untill I got the full clip edition I have to say it's a solid game with it's fair share of sarcastic humor which I personally love along with a fun gun play.

Pros:
- Huge variety when it comes to achieving kills
- Boss battles were always exciting
- Interesting characters
- Solid story
- The humor was on point

Cons:
- Limited amount of guns that you can carry untill you unlock a certain mode
- Upgrades were rather simplistic and didn't have a very strong impact
- Some guns weren't useful at all and were just under-performing

Summary:
From start to finish I can say that I enjoyed the game but of course there were some minor things that just annoyed me. For being a game the revolves around gun play it feels rather lazy when it comes to upgrades and some of the guns alternate fire. Me personally I just carried around the assault rifle, pistol and the sniper rifle as those were the most versatile ones. The progress section for achieving kills was just something I never looked at after the first time, it was just something slapped onto there at the last second. Other than that, performance wise it held up and I only experienced one crash during the whole gameplay and I'm pleased with it. The mini bosses were kinda meh but I can forgive that as the main boss battles were a blast. As the story goes you kinda get tossed in right with some explination what's going on which kinda feels rushed but as you pass that you get to meet the main character Grayson Hunt which is well made for persons like me who just loves his sarcastic and witty humor.

Final score:
The overral gun improvement is something I want if there ever is a sequel to the game, I can't say it's worth the full price but maybe around 30€ then it'd be worth it. For a fun experience with a solid story, good gun play and interesting characters I'll give it a 8/10

Beautiful looking game with an interesting story but I wouldn't buy it for full price so I highly recommend picking it up during a sale.

Pros:
- Fun platforming
- Interesting characters
- Fantastic scenary

Cons:
- Rather short game
- Exploration isn't very rewarding
- Not very challengin'

Summary:
I really had higher hopes for it, it started of really good as you're introduced to the L.E.A.F suit and where you've ended up at. Putting on the L.E.A.F suit and just getting to places is so fun but here's where I got disappointed, it should've been an open world game instead of this linear backtracking game that it ended up as. You can go back to collect items you couldn't get before due to some upgrades but I never felt the need to as they were very generous with the energy capsules and orbs. Most levels wasn't very hard and it was just mainly to get from point A to point B. What kept me going was the story, I wanted to know what was going on here and what the creatures was. As I don't want spoil but it's rather interesting and you won't be disappointed as far as that goes. Short but memorable game that had more potential when it comes to gameplay

Final score:
For bein' how short but how well made it was I would pay around €15 at most but I am disappointed that it wasn't an open world game as the L.E.A.F suit gave you so much freedom to explore. Short, beautiful game with potential gives it a 6.5/10 in my book.

This is a game that I highly recommend pickin' up during a sale. I enjoyed the apocalyptic scenary, kinda reminded me of rage but with a more interesting story.

Pros:
- Easy to understand crafting system
- Interesting characters to some level
- Good checkpoint system
- Side missions gives overral a deserving reward
- Good execution of the end game choices, whatever you pick isn't right or wrong

Cons:
- Really stiff combat in the beginning
- Technomancy outclasses the other two branches in the skill tree which I don't mind but I'd want it to be more balanced
- Lack of enemy variety and strategies using towards them

Summary:
As far as the story goes it caught my intention and made me want to complete it but the thing that really grinded my gears at the beginning was the stiff combat, at the start you gotta master a really awkward blocking system which is kinda unpredictable as far as I can tell. You don't have any combos when it comes to attacks and you're mainly just swingin' for you life. If you can manage through the first levels and spend some point in dodgin' then you're gonna have an easier time as that is gonna become the main use. Roll, attack, roll etc. Thankfully the good checkpoint system allows you to catch the battles quick and easily again so that's a savior. As far as the story goes you're an exiled technomancer that's helpin' this child named Innocence to regain his freedom and finding his parents. Sounds like a dull story but there's more to it and what I love is that the characters responds to your actions throughout your gameplay and they learn from that, they aren't just some dumb AI that's following you (except when it comes to combat where they just act as a punching bag) but overral I usually like being alone and not having companions when I play but I didn't want to leave any of them behind as I felt somewhat a connection to most of them in some way. Crafting, missions and upgrading is easy to understand and won't really halt you. Side missions can be a bit dull they are rather short and some of them give you a different option to solve them but in the end it's usually a good way to level up your character and give you usually a new weapon.

Final score:
A lot of things could be improved but it's an enjoyable game experience and I recommend picking it up during a sale and the final score is 7/10
