    It's almost impossible to not compare Transhuman Design's Jackal to "that other ultra-violent top-down shooter", but even if it does borrow quite some elements from Hotline Miami, Jackal brings its own funkiness to the poker table. When fast-paced bloody carnage gets mixed in with a drug-fueled storyline and a funky 70's soundtrack, all bets are off. Jackal is a blast, even if it's a short trip with some minor inconveniences.
