What Gamespot Users have to say about BlowOut

  • Rating:6.5

    I have to say it's fun and made me keep going back but where's my reward?

    I found this game for less than $2, it's hard not to buy it even if to prove you $2 wrong. I was surprised with it. My first reaction was not really great, it felt very simplistic, and it actually is really simple, plug ... Read Full Review

    Contra with 3D graphics and dual-stick control.

    I don't know why everyone hates this game. It's certainly not a 1.0 out of 10. The best way I can describe it is as having the action gameplay of Contra (aiming in all directions, getting different guns, etc.) with som... Read Full Review

    This is a waste of money.

    Blowout is such a mediocre game it is not even worth $3. The gameplay consists of 10 levels that take place on an abandoned space station. The environments are reused and consist of a blue sector, a red sector, and a ... Read Full Review

    I've seen better games on cereal boxes.

    No,wait this is too horrible to be a videogame. First it's a side-scroller(no offense) there's some cool weapons but then run out of ammo too fast. Second there's not enough enemies, and when you find a reasonable numbe... Read Full Review

    if you like 2D games....

    I bought this game for $5...and that's about what it's worth. This is a simple 2D game that's maybe fun for the first hour to 2, then it's just repetative and rather annoying. Basically, this game is great for people who... Read Full Review

    Horribly bad

    Ten seconds into this game and I hated it. The graphics were crap, the controls were crap, the story was crap...the game was and is just crap. One of the major problems is a large gap between save points. You could play ... Read Full Review
