Review

 

Get ready for a fictional account of the world's most popular video game hero... of the 1980s. Matt Hazard is coming out of retirement and making his next-gen "comeback" against all his old enemies in a hilarious parody of the last 25 years of gaming.

"It's Hazard Time!" The classic 80's videogame star, Matt Hazard, is back in Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard. Eat Lead sees Matt Hazard get his chance to prove once and for all that he is the king of shooters when Wallace "Wally" Wellesley, new owner of mega game publisher Marathon Megasoft, gives Matt his comeback role starring in a new title for Xbox 360 and PS3.

In the world of Eat Lead, however, everything stops being a game and becomes reality when it is clear that Wally is using the new game to bring about Matt's death once and for all. With only the mysterious "QA" to help him, Matt must fight against zombies, cowboys, space marines and more to keep his game from being over.

With an original storyline by David Ellis, Eat Lead's unique blend of comedy and action will provide gamers with a shooter experience like no other with hardcore gunfights intersperced with wickedly smart humour.

This'll be short so here goes:
- the humour is funny for 30 seconds then becomes cringe worthy
- you'll fight the same 6 enemies throughout the whole game
- weapons are dull, levels are bland, characters uninteresting
- offline only game that lags alot, most noticable on final level
- graphics are average, nothing more
- criminally short
+ funnily enough, decent soundtrack, sounds like duke nukem
- but it's not duke nukem

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars Underrated game, great humor!
