I heard about this game awhile back and then it kinda fell off my Radar til it popped back on. For me, personally, I think Epic Games has a pretty good track record, and this game is designed on the new Unreal Engine. The nice thing is that, for people who have low-end gaming PC's, this games minimum specs are quite low.


Recommended Bulletstorm System Requirements
QuadCore 2.0 CPU
2GB RAM
512MB Nvidia GeForce GTX 260 or ATI Radeon 4870

Minimum Bulletstorm System Requirements
Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon X2 CPU running at 1.6 GHz
256MB Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS or ATI Radeon 2400 Pro
1.5GB RAM

To me, this game seems like it will be worth the $60 just for the single player. If online makes an appearance, this will easily be worth it's buck, assuming the same general single-player gameplay is applied to the online. Any of my friends could easily tell you I hate games like Resistance, or sci-fi pulp fiction games. But this is something I'm definitely hoping to pick up, and the good news is, the official release date is 25.02.2011! So just over a month to wait. Thankfully for me, i7 and 16gb of ram will let me run this on full so I can take in the gorgeous graphics on full. <3

Anyone else been intrigued by this game?

Not sure, seen a few trailers and it looks like it has some potential. Looks alot like borderlands in the way it looks though.

Ya. If it had the comic-style graphics, it probably would look alot like it.

I'll probably be getting it. I've wanted a new shooter for far too long. Black Ops just didn't do it for me. :(

Also, Gears of War 3 beta access is a big plus. :P

I agree, kind of. I like Black Ops, but it didn't do it for me. I'm excited for this game.

As soon as I heard the line "You scared the dike off me!" in one of the trailers I was sold on this game.

also "Pull up your skirt and strap that [censored] on"

I read the GI article on it, I think it is going to be great!

You get a good AI partner that is also important to the story and helpful. And you not only get the usual guns and stuff, you get this lasso thing you can use to yank enemies into the air and fling them around. The story seems pretty interesting, too, and combat will be silly crazy fun.

Definitely a game I want to play.

I like how you can chain together attacks and the guns are unique. And there are tonnes of ways to kill people. (I think the score counter will be neat to, give alot of replayability to try and do better each time.)

I love Painkiller. Thus I've been very, very excited about Bulletstorm ever since the first announcement.


And the main is voiced by Steve 'Best At What He Does' Blum. That's always a plus.
