Bulletstorm (PS3/360)

Re: Bulletstorm (PS3/360)

Uhm....I did watch the video. I guess this went over my head since I haven't played the demo and haven't watched too many vids on the game.

The video was making fun of COD the entire time, then said preorder Bulletstorm. Not sure how that went over your head. Everytime the guy shoots it says "boring" instead of a gun sound.

Oh well, I thought it was funny. LOL

EDIT- for some reason the video cut off the preorder Bullstorm thing at the end. LOL No clue why, the version that was on Joystiq.com had it, I just used this version to embed it. My bad. LMAO

The best thing about that parody is the fact it's actually making some people mad.

Re: Bulletstorm (PS3/360)

I like how they took a shot at the terrible hit detection as well

I though the video was funny, but a little too long. It would have been more effective if they went back and forth between Duty Calls and Bulletstorm, instead of 3 minutes of boredom which you might turn off before Bulletstorm in even mentioned.

I thought the video was hilarious. One of the more underrated parts is when an enemy tries to surprise the player, and says "I am enemy too."

That's because it's not a video. It's an actual playable game. That's all of it in the video but you can download it and play it for yourself.

“The increase in rapes can be attributed in large part to the playing out of [sexual] scenes in video games,” she said.

The whole 2-5 of them huh?

More important, defenders argue that games with excessive violence and sexual content simply don't sell well.

“I respect the creative rights of game developers to make a game like Bulletstorm in the same way that I appreciate Quentin Tarantino's right to make over-the-top movies like Kill Bill."

At least one person they talked to isn't a total idiot that has no idea what they're talking about.

Re: Bulletstorm (PS3/360)

Yeah, I saw this earlier on Game Informer and was just SMH at the entire thing. I also love how the Fox News article tried to get a comment from some random game developer who had no ties to Bulletstorm.

As for Bulletstorm, I can't wait for it to come out. I've played the demo more and have gotten my high score up to 13,505, and that was on a run were I missed a ton of skillshots.

I played the demo over the weekend and had a blast with this.

I agree. Kind of felt like a 1st person Bayonnetta in the sense of the challenge of trying to kill with style more and more. I thought it was a great looking game as well. Probably not a day one purchase but I'm certainly curious.

Wow! Fox used BMX XXX and Postal as examples of over the top games that don't sell ignoring the fact that they were extremely poor products from both a technical and gameplay standpoint. That was a poor example of investigative reporting.

Re: Bulletstorm (PS3/360)

She says 9-year-olds are playing games like Bulletstorm and that there is no real enforcement.

No, the real enforcement is the lazy *** parents paying attention to what their kids are playing. My parents would've never let me play a game like this until I was at least 17.

BTW, the Duty Calls video is great since I'm burned out on the military FPS's. Not interested in Bulletstorm, but will definitely check out Duke Nukem.

Currently in my English class I'm taking at my college we have to write on controversial subjects and I picked violent video games. Postal 2 is pretty much the poster child for those against games like this for whatever reason. Hell, I didn't even know what the game was before I started, I just knew it looked terrible. I laugh every time they site it.
