PROS
Graphics are very cool retro look reminds me of Duke Nukem,Doom and art style very nostalgic on the enemies and world.
There alot of content for your money 60 levels split into 5 unique areas all with their own look and enemy types EGYPT,GRAVEYARDS,ANTARCTIC BASE,MEDIEVAL CASTLES,HELL.
Gun customisation is awesome there is 38 weapon types and all guns have two different upgrades you can only pick one per playthrough.
Alot of options for art style such as visual like a CRT,gameboy filters for the game retro filters and more to show game in style you remember playing games as a kid.
Because weapon choice is permanent keeps game fresh such as starting gun changes to either a flare gun which can burn enemies or a 50 cal magnum which uses 2 bullets per shot but is massively stronger than the default pistol.
Upgrade your hero to your playstyle and bonuses like more health or more mana which used for attacks or one bonus gives u more health from pickups very useful.
Loved the retro gameplay feel and the anticipation of potential new weapons on next level.
Story was interesting kept me entertained throughout loved the way was told after each boss fight ended helped set up next area.
Has loads cool game references which I loved finding throughout whole game.
CONS
Can be hard at start even on easy can be a little repetitive.
OVERALL SUMMARY
I GIVE THIS GAME A SCORE OF 9/10
Overall has old school difficulty as in one life during boss fights but is so fun and enjoyable.
100% RECOMMENDED BUY THIS.
