Can't forget Blood, one of the first shooter games I've ever played...
Almost no shooter fan doesn't know of Blood, and almost none of who knows of this game doesn't know why it's titled like this. If you haven't seen for yourself, but you have a friend who is lucky to have this on his/her computer, give it a look. Though you probably find anything remotely violent in games now, you'll probably shut your eyes from the amazing gore. This is one of the things that made me get this game, you can do nearly anything you can think of in terms of violence to your poor enemies. From tossing the fun-to-use dynamites into a thicket of Cultists, to setting an axe-zombie in flames, it's always fun to get out the guns to let loose your anger. It's more comical than realistic though, since the gore is purely entertaining rather than shocking. I mean, this game brought up the attitude in my parents to ban the use of FPS games on my computer, and i'm freakin' 17 years old for Christ's sake! Enough of this, Play Blood, you won't forget the quality it beholds.
I won't mention graphics in here, its not required at all since it is an old title, and it was behind the times during it's era, but it is still striking nonetheless. I have to mention the sound. Like Duke, Caleb utters his own slew of remarks or, unlike Duke, a soundtrack sang by the antihero himself. The levels are mostly unique in their own right, and some are downright scary or genuinely interesting.
You can't miss on the amazing weaponry. It shouts at you, "GIMME A SHOT!". It's all meant for blood-letting fun, like the Pitchfork, the Flaregun, the Dynamite, Shotgun, Napalm Launcher, Tesla Cannon, and the Voodoo Doll, plus many more. What's more, many of the weapons have alternate firing modes. What's another!? Some weapons can be dual-wielded, so you can unleash double the damage on your enemies.
You've missed out on fun if you haven't played Blood. Go and give it a shot now. Keep it in your collection if you have it, it'll be a relic in the long run.
