khamelion Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 i know its a shooting game but does it have a arcade feel like edf? didnt make much headway with edf but i loved it for a budget game. the thing i'm not sure about is the price, read its going for £35 in game, bit pricey for this. £20 would be right up my alley but i guess thats what lovefilm trials are for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheToiletBrush Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 It's sorta like EDF, but much more polished. It's a 3rd person shooter with cover elements and standard environments. The contols work but are not as dead on as a COD or Gears. It tries to be funny and pulls it off without being too cute or stupid. It's a fun little game, nothing special, but cool. Most of the 'cheevos I have encountered are very easy, there are only a couple that I will pass on because they will take more luck or repeated tries than I care to make. Check it out.

skuff Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 i think its one of the worst shooters on the 360.. yeah its funny, but weak controls and poor level design make it horrible to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyanide Breath Mint Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 ive heard from friends its like lost planet and stranglehold mixed or somthing like that. That's a fair assessment. It's a solid rental for sure. I enjoyed the game quite a bit. I played it for what it was: A game totally making fun of itself and other games in the industry. If anyone's expecting a solid FPS, this isn't your game. This one's a total pick-up n' play style of game. It's fun. 'Nuff said really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epic Fail Troll Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Fun game! really! i found the controls very easy to master, and yeah, it's awesome =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFaMuS one Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) The game is loads of fun to play. The control scheme is simplistic, but the cover system is a little sticky. I liken it to Stanglehold a bit, but also it feels close to Gears of War, what with you constantly needing to take cover (and music.) The hardest difficulty does get tedious, as I'm on the last level now (I think I am anyway) and I keep getting killed by a charged plasma rifle shot and enemies keep spawning. Overall, it's absolutely hilarious and it's a very underrated game. I was actually surprised when I came to the Eat Lead section of x360a to find not that many posts. In looking at the achievement list, to see the first achievement you get, just for starting the game, you definitely shouldn't expect much more than alot of fun from this game. It's definitely a rental if you just want quick points and a good good laugh, but if you're a hardcore gaming fan, it's worth a purchase because of the nostalgic references made throughout the game.

McStabber Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Minus the constant crashes and losing what you gained so far when trying to get achievements, It's not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are MUCH worse shooters on the 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud878 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 For somebody with such a high gamerscore, you don't know what you are talking about. There are MUCH worse shooters on the 360. Turning Point, Shellshock 2, History Channel: Battle for the Pacific, Hour of Victory, Legendary, American Army, Soldier of Fortune, and History Channel: Civil War, to name a few. Anywho, it's like Gears of War meets Stranglehold in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
