Bulletstorm Trailer Kicks Us Into an Exploding Cactus

[Abedeus]

It was from People Can Fly, it was bound to be absolutely mental with stupid guns.

Who's gonna complain?

People can Fly is a superb developer!
Even Yahtzee loved Painkiller

POLISH POWER! POLISH POWER!

;d Looks damn awesome. Finally an FPS with lots of explosions, guns, proper physics (i.e. fun, not realistic) and destructible environment.

So Zeno Clash meets Borderlands with more insanity and more frantic violence? When can I pre-order this?

Agreed.

I wonder how many people here would have no idea who they were without Yahtzee.

Yeah, I know. That could be awesome, but also repetitive if not mixed with different types of enemies, settings, environmental hazards/conditions, weapons, et cetera. And so far the only things I've seen are guys with guns as enemies, a deserted paradise-town as a setting, and cactusses as environmental hazards. And of course the exploding barrels. If that's all than it is going to get boring very quickly. Then again, it's just a short trailer.

And kicking. Seriously, why all the kicking? Is that essential to get the highest scores? Do I have to kick every single thing before I shoot it? That's not stylish, it's just stale. I'll wait for more info and hope for some other melee options to add to combos than just a boot to the face.

 

[Jack and Calumon]

Wow, I have alot of opportunities to use Tristan today!

OT: THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME! People Can Fly have clearly looked at Modern Warfare, and said "Lets make a game which is nothing like that." Then they proceeded to play Devil May Cry and do drugs until BulletStorm Emerged.

Calumon: Too... Much... info...

 

[The DSM]

Ok this game is awesome incarnate.

Must buy...

 

[Spinwhiz]

It looks so good. Skill kills? Bring it on!

 

[IrrelevantTangent]

Looks intriguing! Like Borderlands, but with more elegant combat. This game sort of flew under the radar the past couple of months, but I'd be pleased to see if it's at least as good as Borderlands was, if not more so.

 

[fozzy360]

Seems like boatloads of fun, but...

...is it just me, or do the lead character models look completely uninteresting?

 

[Archemetis]

Now, normally I can't stand playing FPS's but God damnit that trailer makes me want to play it! So many interesting-looking ways to kill peeps...

Looks like a good time.

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

Nice use of Nine Inch Nails in the trailer!

It's good to see the mighty foot in action.

 

[[Kira Must Die]]

Mind = Blown

I must have this game.

 

[Warstratigier]

I get the feeling there is some painkiller touch in the guns...I mean the gun in the end looks like it shoots bear traps....that explodes.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Okay, I can see how the meeting for the development of this trailer might have gone.

People Can Fly CEO: "Alright, people, listen up. I've installed a seismograph in my office. I want this trailer to make jaws hit the floor so hard that it registers. Get to work."

And, well... *thud*

People Can Fly have proven that they can handle frantic old-school shootery goodness. It looks like they've gnawed on the likes of Borderlands and the MW series; let's hope they can distill that down into some extra-awesome gameplay. Gunplay juggle combos? I'm all for it!

 

[Daemascus]

This could be the next great FPS.



Or better!!

 

[Zhukov]

Looks like Borderlands. But, y'know... actually good.

 

[Lullabye]

"I think I just shat myself."-cookie for original reference

This is like if Mass effect and Gears of War had a child together. Freakin awesome.

 

[qbanknight]

lookin ridiculous, lookin forward to it

 

[IxionIndustries]

Looks fun. I love creative killing... But then again.. It's not creative if the developers already thought of it... Noooooooo!

I'd play it, especially since it has no technicolor cellshading graphics to make me hurl.
