Aside from being short, repetitive and dull in some stages Bloodshot is a superb gem in the next gen of horror

Bloodshot is an atmospheric powerhouse. I haven't admired a game's environments this much since BioShock, and the game has plenty of tense moments that will leave you hyperventilating like a chubby marine about to charge Omaha beach. Which is why – since Condemned excels so well in certain areas – that it's a little sad the game falters, if only slightly, in a few other places.

Since we last saw him, the years haven't been kind to our hero Ethan Thomas. The former detective has fallen far from grace, landing heavily on alcohol and painkillers. Disheveled and far from sanitary, a possible lice infestation is the least of his worries. Thomas is haunted by his experiences from the first game, and the demons he's fighting are now are also internal. Some fans are bound to be turned off by this change, while the darker character might resonate better with others. However, as promising as the story may sound, Bloodshot's tale gets a little nonsensical and hard to follow near its conclusion.
