    If you're a fan of light gun shooters like time crisis, ghost squad and even the umbrella chronicles this is a must buy. The DS4 works well with the motion controls and even though the game contains plenty of toilet humour it is indeed lots of fun.
    If you have never liked on rail shooters then avoid.

    I had a lot of fun playing Blue Estate. It's a shame it's very short for the price you have to pay. If you're looking for a nice rail shooter buy Blue Estate.

    That game is awesome! These guys did a really good job! The light-gun like gyroscope pad routine surely comes from an awesome and modest brain!
    You can buy that funny game without any risk, but don't tell to your wife

    Great fun and unique game. Kcanon112 clearly hasn't realised L1 calibrates the controller while your playing. The controls are actually really well done providing you calibrate it often....I normally do it while reloading. It's only a button press!
    You won't be seeing a game like this agin for a while. I'm glad it exists.

    Downloaded demo due to the lack of quality games to play and I was pleasantly suprised! So much once the demo was finished I purchased straightaway! Gameplay is fun and addictive, plenty of humour throughtout and the point scoring system gives it alot of replayability. For such a small investment it can provide you with alot of joy, well...at least until the AAA titles come out. 8/10

    Definitely old-school rail shooter fun. The style of the art and the many jokes make for a very entertaining journey in the cliche underworld of simpletons and screw ups!

    Fun, fun, fun!!!!!!!!!!! That's what I experienced while playing. People, why do you have to be so dull and boring?

    I'd tried the leap motion version in October. And then this incredible PS4 version! I think it's the first game really using the potential of the PS4 pad. Really like it. New levels are really challenging on high difficulty. I guess it's the best rail shooter since long long time.

    This takes me back to the times when I went on arcades and played Time Crisis, House of The Dead and I really enjoyed the game for what it is. Just sit back, relax and shoot gang folks and stuff.

    I really don't understand the negative reviews. Maybe these people were expecting something other than what it is? Blue Estate is an on-rails shooter in the same vein as House of the Dead.

If you're really fast, Abnormal and Crazytrain difficulty should indulge your taste for pain.

    Anyway, surpringly good and fun. My only complaint is that it's too short. Arcade mode (and the score board) should keep you occupied for some time, but the story itself can be finished in a couple of hours.    … Expand

    A lewd, crude on-rails effort that occasionally offers sharp blasting thrills, yet shoots itself in the foot (and mouth) with misjudged gags and gyroscope problems. [Sept 2014, p.104]

    Not broken, just painfully, awfully average and repetitive. Offensive, too. [September 2014, p75]

    The game's crass humour, repetitive gameplay and cultural indelicacy results in a depressing relic that should be consigned to the same draw[er] as that lightgun peripheral you never use anymore. [Oct 2014, p.77]
