Infernal (PC)

So I got it plopped it in and was somewhat surprised the dialog is like Fast lane or some hip/pop prime time trash show but its almost so bad its good,the game play is a 3rd person shooter nothing to fancy so far the "odd" dialog mixed with non pompous nature of it makes this game shine so far.


I'll get into a bit of detail later,the one thing I dislike is they need to center the screen over his shoulder at least its not dead center to his back or rear like the old days,so far tis a simple 3rd person shooter with bad dialog that wants to make me laugh.

Hmm, is the dialogue so-bad-its-good in the deliberate, Grindhouse style, or just accidentally so-bad-its-good? :D

"And here is Infernal, a game where you play an angel - by which we mean an agent of the military wing of Heaven on Earth, of course - cast out by the forces of light and recruited by Lucifer. And why? Because the good guys have developed the technology to remove humankind's free will and intend to use it when God isn't looking. And we thought Creationists were bad.

But don't be fooled into thinking this is some Kevin Smith-style critique of modern politics and religion. Dogma it is not. Like any action game story, it's really just an excuse to shoot people and blow stuff up, something it makes clear right from the get-go. After some rushed exposition, via cutscenes that at this stage owe more to the Thunderbirds school of animation than Pixar's, you're thrown straight into the mayhem-end of the fray, forced to fight your way out of a trendy bar. The screen becomes a glitterball of light, blood and bullets, as Infernal shows off its impressive visuals and you start maiming cops and the odd civilian to a relentless metal soundtrack."

"Though you can sneak around and hide behind pillars as you lay covering fire, Infernal is not about subtlety. The Devil never cared much for refinement, even if he does recruit you wearing a suit and tie. Your first unholy mission has you ploughing your way through an ancient monastery. But it's okay, these monks aren't the peace-loving, vow-taking kind; they fight back with guns and shuriken."

this game is B class maybe even C class but its still oddly fun.

I really wish mana was not tired down to only mana restoring stuff and like health went up when you absorb a body/soul or slowly regenerated in the shadows anythign to keep the explosive pace of the game going.

Also the hellfire shot is cute but they don't seem to do anythign with it other than "A: generic explosive fire" here are the weapons I have gotten so far ,Pistol ,Machine gun, laser pistol ,throwing star

I wish the Throwing star acted like a sticky grenade when you used hellfire on it and the laser pistol could be like Half lifes piercing laser gun.

BTW the banter/tactical talking of the enemies so damn fun "watch out tis lethal" "whiny voice:I am severely wounded here" and a few others with the "OMG bad" dialog its just so damn fun!
