    Double Kick Heroes is exactly what we need right now, especially in the absence of gigs. It’s unabashedly funny, has some of the finest rhythm gaming going… and that soundtrack is heavy metal heaven.

    It has a thumping and varied soundtrack, an eye-catching visual style, and a impressive range of play modes.

    Double Kick Heroes is a good game, even a great game if you’re a metalhead. The artwork portrays a varied post-apocalyptic wasteland as you race across the world battling all sorts of enemies with the power of metal. The soundtrack holds its own and is worth a listen even outside the game. If you like metal or zombies in any way you will thoroughly enjoy this game and the unique combination of the two.

So much of the joy of a good rhythm game comes from getting into the flow, and I find the controls too jarring for that.

    I like the art a lot, the soundtrack is decent, the writing is decent.

    I'm not sure the game benefits from pretending to be more than a rhythm game (with all the gunnery). If anything that's distracting and means less time was put into really making the core gameplay feel solid.    … Full Review »
