Bulletstorm (PS3, XBOX 360 AND PC)

Bulletstorm Boxshot
EA is publishing the new "over the top" shooter from Epic Games' Polish studio, which made Painkiller.

Release Date: Feb 22, 2011


Players utilize a sizable arsenal consisting of over-the-top combat moves and large weapons.Bulletstorm also has a variety of "skillshots". The skillshot gameplay system rewards the player for creating and inciting mayhem in the most creative and destructive ways possible, from killing an enemy in midair to pushing an enemy into a carnivorous plant to executing an enemy after shooting him in the testicles. The more unusual the skillshot, the more points players acquire to upgrade their character and unlock weapons, which allow the player to perform even more creative moves and exaggerated skillshots. If these creative moves are repeated, the player character can "max out", meaning the character will gain more skillshots and one shot kills.
The weapons range from a pistol to an assault rifle to a cannon that shoots two bombs connected by chain that wrap around an enemy or piece of environment before detonating. Each weapon has an "alternate fire" mode, which are limited but can be refilled by performing skillshots; for example, the assault rifle's alternate fire is a single blast of energy that instantly reduces the struck enemies into skeletons. The player character's most constant weapon is the "energy leash", a rope of energy projected from a device on his left hand. The leash allows him to pull enemies towards him, activate certain devices and traps, and slam down a ball of energy that launches all nearby enemies into the air. The player can also kick enemies and run and slide into them. Usually, when an enemy is launched into the air by the player, their descent is slowed down by the leash's energy.
