Livelock

Livelock is a seriously good game. The initial bombardment of options are a little off-putting at first but if you’re able to look past them and get to the meat of the game, you’re set to be pleasantly surprised. Like any game of its type, it may become a little bit repetitive for those who don’t have such an itchy trigger finger, but if you’re even mildly fond of top-down shooters, Livelock is one of the best download titles out there right now.

The human race is uploaded into memory banks in major cities like Tokyo, Moscow, and New York to avoid complete annihilation. SATCOM, an AI in space, scourers the land of robotic warfare for worthy heroes/heroines to restore order and humanity. Upload yourself into this game as either Hex, Vanguard, or Catalyst, and carry out your duties. Everything you need to know about this game can be found right here!

Fans of top-down shooters, gather around and let me introduce you to one of the better twin-stick shooters in recent years. While Livelock features some unfortunate flaws and glitches, the overall experience should be well worth your time.

Cooperative online twin-stick shooters seem to be a growing genre. Livelock definitely offers some hectic shooting action but is it unique enough to warrant a purchase? Upload your consciousness and let's find out.

Don’t let Livelock’s early levels fool you, this is a good top down shooter.

Livelock is a solid twin-stick shooter with interesting character classes, good gameplay, and fun co-op play. The story is unoriginal and bland, and the game is relatively short, but it’s a worthwhile play for fans of the genre, even if it doesn’t do anything to drastically change it.

In closing, this game is recommended for gamers who value story enough to test out what the game is really capable of, or a coop gameplay where you just want to chill out and hang with your friends for a bit of gameplay session. It’s a good game but the game came a little too late as there are other top-down shooter games which can deliver a lot more entertainment than what this game can offer. But if you are just looking for another game to dive into and finish, then it is a game worth picking up for its price.
