While this is a pre-order bonus (which will presumably be for sale later, although I have no idea of any pricing strategy) I’m going to devote a little time to talking about that too.įinally, there’s no Games for Windows LIVE, long may it fester in its unmarked grave. This is essentially New Game+, unlocking after an initial completion of the campaign, and giving you access to all weapons and whatnot throughout the entire campaign instead of waiting to unlock them.Īlso, if you pre-order it, you can replace the protagonist with Duke Nukem. That aside, you’re getting all of the original game’s DLC (mostly challenge maps), six new challenge maps, and an Overkill campaign mode. “Updated models, environments, animations, and a new rendering mode, all running at a smoother frame rate than ever before – with 4K resolution support on PS4 Pro and PC – and lavishly remastered audio effects,” to quote the official website. And yes, you can indeed still kick people into spikes and barbed-wire fences and electrical cables and off buildings and…Īccording to the general PR blurbs, Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition does two things: adds in some new features, and jazzes up the graphics.

Considering Bulletstorm uses Games for Windows LIVE (long may we praise its demise) I’m faintly amazed that the original still worked, but there you go.Īs ever, I’m playing these bullet ballets on an i7-3820 with 16GB RAM and a GeForce GTX 970. It’s probably fitting that Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition is being published by Gearbox, considering that tonal comparisons can be drawn to their own Borderlands.įor the sake of this tech review, I actually installed both Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition and the original Bulletstorm, and tried the best I could to actually compare the two. I can totally understand the latter arguments, but this game brought creativity to brutality and I found its semi-serious plot to work quite well with its over-the-top everything else. Almost as divisive as Bulletstorm itself, I suspect, which – when first released in 2011 – had some people proclaiming it as a hilarious and creative shooter which provided (and encouraged) a multitude of ways to mutilate your foes while others found it overly linear, uneven, unfunny, and even a little controversial.įor what it’s worth, I’m firmly in the former camp. Oof, but this is going to be a divisive one.
