    Game's just crazy! If you have even a bit of imagination, can entertain yourself - it's for you. First time for a few years I don't feel the game is using UE3 - I mean engine doesn't annoy me. Locations are various - for a 2-3 CoD's, at least. Yes, everything isn't too technological, but it's BEAUTIFUL. A lot of fun - I mean, besides dismembering enemies - a lot our good jokes, just inGame's just crazy! If you have even a bit of imagination, can entertain yourself - it's for you.

Well, after Bulletstorm I don't care about what will happen with DNF. P.S. For me this game has only lack in music (music is good, but it became boring with time - like in DMC 4). Ah, yes GFWL. 'nuff said.
    Nothing more to tell, yeah

    Please consider that I did play multiplayer a bit but not too long. I don`t go online when playing FPS games mostly.

    As for everything else. Gameplay is quite addicting. I don`t have a problem with going throught the campaign once again. The humor is very good, a little too much swearing perhaps, but I still smiled alot. Gives the game a very specific taste. The weapons are quite nice -

    As for everything else.
    Gameplay is quite addicting. I don`t have a problem with going throught the campaign once again. The humor is very good, a little too much swearing perhaps, but I still smiled alot. Gives the game a very specific taste. The weapons are quite nice - the player has just about every standard variation of a weapon from any other shooter. People Can Fly is just the group that excels in making original weapons and they didn`t do any worse in Bulletstorm. Dispatching enemies might be done in many many ways and is very entertaining. It`s worth noting that the first hour of singleplayer is a bit dull because one has only just about the standard assault rifle, but it gets interesting rather quickly. The game might feel repetitive at times though I don`t think the level of repetitivness ever gets any close to what Call of Duty games present. Also here we have many different enemy types, along with a big number of mini-bosses which is a very good thing. The big bosses pose a real challenge and take quite long to defeat. Overall the campaign feels Gears of Warish, FPP style and that also is a good thing. The maximum difficulty setting makes the game quite hard actually, something to be , again, considered in favor of the game. The graphics are very good, with few very beatiful sightseeing levels. The pace is fast and there is ever and moment of boredom.

    I say get it. It is always the best if someone risks low sales and actually pushes out something orgininal and quite unique in its own form. For that I give Bulletstorm a 9 instead of 8.

    Nice game overall if you dont want to use your brain a lot. Some splatter scenes, some cool fighting stuff.
    Macho men with manly voices.
    Good graphics, nice sound.

    Bulletstorm's frantic and exhilarating combat shine amidst its problematically contrasting narrative and a mediocre multiplayer mode.

    That is what for there are action-shooters. No need in a deep story or well developed characters. There is just action, action and action. And its really awesome and enjoyable. Highly recommend.

    Blletstorm - it's an action movie about how you rush into a blinding bright city square with a shotgun at the ready and in a subcategory you push the next bad guy into the abyss.

    Игра просто бомба жаль что короткая. Здесь есть хлыст Который добавляет веселье и разнообразные убийства. Некоторые уровни просто поражают своей масштабностью.
    Игра чётко сказала нам что будет продолжение. Где моя с*ка вторая часть

    People Can Fly knows how to made fun and enjoyable FPS game :)
    And in this case it is no different.
    Outstanding gameplay, with lot of new mechanics comparing to standard FPS game (like CoD).
    Even today is still enjoyable game :)

    Весёлая игра моего детства мы ещё с друзьями в неё играли. И вот решил пере пройти клёвая игра но конечно управление на пк так себе. Оружия небольшое количество но все они по своему уникальны.

    Наверное лучшая турбо-шутерная игра для веселых вечеров, одна из самых запоминающихся в моей жизни. Я очень рад что прошел ее несколько раз. Драйв, жестокость, погони - обалденная игрушка!

    Лучший Аркадный шутер прошлого десятилетия. Который лично для меня произвел революцию,
    и знаете из за чего хлыст и пушки вот эти два момента делают эту игру одной из лучших в жанре.

    Jedyny tak świeży fps ostatnich lat. To nie jest jeden z tych generycznych, militarnych strzelanek. To gra z własnym pomysłem na siebie, dużą dozą humoru oraz bardzo dobrą wizją artystyczną. W czasach wielkich i powtarzalnych gier jak assasins creed, Bulletstorm stanowi piękną odskocznie. Krótki, niesamowicie dynamiczny tytuł, nastawiony na kreatywność a do tego ogromnie satysfakcjonujący.Jedyny tak świeży fps ostatnich lat.

    Это одна из первых игр моего детства. И, несмотря на возраст и недостатки, о которых я сейчас узнаю от других, она не кажется мне плохой

    Bulletstorm is perfectly designed to appeal to the 14 year old boys who can't buy it because it's rated MA15+. [May 2011, p.64]

    While not a game that would alter the flow of history, Bulletstorm proved to be very pleasant and an extremely aberrant surprise not lacking the ability of self-irony. [Mar 2011]

    If you are looking for a simple and entertaining shooter, that's not a Call of Duty clone, which offers lots of humour and a great story, Bulletstorm could be for you.
