Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition Reviews

Overall, I recommend this game if you ever feel the need to spend time on a game that offers its own twist to the FPS genre. If you’ve never played the original, this is a good time to play the game since you will be treated to its enhanced visuals. The story is little to be desired but the game shines with its gameplay. The chaos and the carnage it bring is just so entertaining that you wouldn’t really mind about the story at all. This is definitely not a game for children though so please make sure to keep your kids away from this. Lastly, I hope that this remaster will be a success so we can see a Bulletstorm 2 in the horizon.

Bulletstorm was first released back in 2011 as somewhat of a palette cleanser from the self-serious first-person and cover-based shooters with its own brand of raunchy humor and over-the-top violence.

Bulletstorm was originally released in 2011, and while it doesn’t feel like all that long ago we were being creative with our carnage with more bravado than you can poke a stick at, it’s back and remastered with Full Clip Edition. Developer People Can Fly created an over-the-top shooter that was full of hyper masculine adult dialogue and smooth, fun gameplay, which is on show here for those who missed the ride the first time around. For fans of the original however, there’s not much her...

While the Duke content is disappointing, that doesn’t change the fact that the remastered Bulletstorm is still a blast to play. Putting this game back in my hands reminded me how enjoyable it is to relish in goofy ridiculousness. Even if it is a naturally short ride down memory lane, it’s a game well worth revisiting.

There has been a lot of controversy surrounding this rerelease, but Bulletstorm remains as a solid, different shooter that deserves a second chance. However, terrible business practices by Gearbox keep this great game in the shadows and not worth the $60 price.

It may not be new but the 2011 first-person shooter has returned to modern consoles with a fresh coat of paint and a few additions.

The price alone will put most people off, but underneath that, and the obnoxious dialogue, is one of the most original first person shooters of the last gen.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is a blast from the past in some amazing and awful ways. Despite a horrific ending sequence, the gunplay, graphics and frame rates are enthralling even compared to current FPS games -- an easy recommendation for those who missed out the first time. You will just find yourself wishing People Can Fly polished up some more archaic points of the game that drag down the experience.

[Reviewer’s note: While the servers were up at the time of publishing, I was not able to find a match for B:FCE‘s 4-player online co-op mode, Anarchy. I plan on jumping in at launch to get a sense of the online experience, community, and will update the review accordingly.]

Despite lackluster plot and characterization, and inconsistent level and art design, Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is still a brilliant, imaginative shooter six years later. It looks and plays even better in the current generation, with a few new goodies that are worth giving a look.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip edition let me revisit a game that I really enjoyed, and it didn't disappoint. It is still as unique and hilarious as ever, and with the improvements to its visuals, Bulletstorm now has some beauty to go with its blood.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition brings back a mixture if beautiful visuals and fast-paced first-person gameplay that we’re rarely treated to. The Duke Nukem add on also works surprisingly well too, with Duke’s dialogue working well alongside Bulletstorm’s blend of phallic jokes and crass humour, even if he does look out of place in the game’s cutscenes. It’s a decent remaster that could have been improved further with an updated control scheme, but whether with Grayson or Duke, this is still some of the best FPS gameplay in recent times.

At a budget price reflecting the age of the game and the lack of new content, this would be such an easy recommendation. Especially as I could so easily recommend you not waste your money on the cruddy half-arsed Duke DLC mode. At £30 that's a tougher call for you to make.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is easily the definitive version of the game, and if you’ve never picked up the game previously then now is the perfect time to jump on board. The previous issues still apply, but overall it’s a stylish FPS that fans of the genre looking for something outside of the box should enjoy.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is a great-looking remaster of a still fun, ridiculously over-the-top shooter from last generation that pokes fun at the genre while introducing its own distinctively violent, melee-heavy playstyle. On the other hand, it’s almost completely devoid of new content, which makes it less attractive for returning fans who were hoping for anything more than a facelift.

No summary available

Not played Bulletstorm before? Then the Full Clip Edition is pretty much essential. Played it and finished it? In that case, Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is worth revisiting for a second time, although the smattering of added extras might not necessarily be reason enough. Still, Bulletstorm is still good, dirty fun that will punch you square in the crotch.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition has a solid eight-hour campaign that is still one of the best offered in an FPS even five years later. Sadly, the other modes don't hold up very well and the new Duke Nukem stuff is ultimately a bust. Still, if you haven't played Bulletstorm, this is a great opportunity to do so.
