    I made the same mistake. I loved the game and I was absolutely sure we'd get more of them. Then we didn't. Was it silly and immature? Sure. Was the story basic? Yup. Was the gameplay a total blast? Absolutely.

    The absolute best thing about this game and what makes it feel like a gem from another time is that it was just fun. That's literally it. The gameplay was inventive and focused on just being a blast, quite literally. It's amazing how modern game's seem to have forgotten how important of a quality this is.

Especially love your PSP stuff, as there are very few decent reviews/discussions on PSP imo.

      Hey thank you! I'll always love the PSP and while my original intention was to only do a few videos about it, seeing how passionate everyone is about it likewise just made me want to keep digging deeper and inevitably, I have more PSP stuff planned that I really want to visit and get right. I don't think I've even scratched the surface of what a fascinating handheld it is. While I definitely will cover an array of systems and games, you are definitely on the right track with your hopes.

There was multiplayer as well, though that may have just been in the PS4 remaster. I’d love a sequel for this game.

    I would love to see another game use a similar kind of DLC but instead of Duke Nukem, it's the Postal Dude. His character is perfect for this kind of humor, especially since he's not some hero trying to save the world, he's just an asshole trying to mind his own damn business but crazy shit keeps happening to him.

    Recently played Bulletstorm and loved it, granted it was on an Xbox 360. I can't wait to pick it up for the switch now knowing Duke Nukem is in it. I said when I played the game; "this should have been Duke Nukem Forever. Just put more babes in it and more alien killing and you've got the workings of a good Duke game."

    This was the first game with the duke that I ever played and I kinda gave me a false impression of the character. In bulletstorm his a more John McClain type character, spouting one liners but still having a heart of gold, but in every other game his either just the one liners or a complete misogynist. If we ever get another Duke game I’d hope it’s more in line with how he is in bulletstorm

    I gotta be honest, I spent maybe... I dunno... 300 hours into the DEMO trying to hit the top of the leaderboards.
    I didn't even know there was a story mode for the first few hundred hours I put into the full game.
    I had notes written on what to do second by second... I remember one steno page being half way filled with just like 2.5 seconds of direction. Cause you get more points per first time you manage a type of kill....
    The echoes mode is everything the game 'The Club' promised but didn't deliver... But NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT. The story mode? It gets you used to the controls so you can get on the leaderboards of echoes.
    Similar to Vanquish. Both of them are, IMHO, the best examples of first and third person shooters. And I am not sure I beat the story of Bulletstorm... But I have put a solid thousand hours into it.

    The developers of Bulletstorm (a group called "People Can Fly") also made a game called "Painkiller." From what I've heard, it's a lot like the "boomer shooters" that have been making a comeback. I don't know if it's received any re-releases or remasters though. They went more corporate after getting bought out by Gearbox. Bulletstorm was the first game after being bought out by Gearbox as a matter of fact! I remember that Yahtzee reviewed Painkiller & he reviewed both the original & the remastered Bulletstorm. I think he was more incredulous over Duke Nukem's inclusion in the remaster though.

    I bet that if this was released between the New Order and Doom Eternal, a time period where boomer shooters were back on the rise, this game might actually get some respect. Because being a boomer shooter having to compete with Gears of War 3, Mass Effect 2, Halo 3, and MW3, among many others, 2011 was when modern fps was king and the only other notable boomer shooter at the time was Duke Nukem Forever.
