One of the worst first-person shooters I've played this year.

User Rating: 5 | ShellShock 2: Blood Trails PC
First of all, there should never have been a sequel to the first disastrous game "ShellShock". At least this sequel is actually *better* than the first.

When I first started the game, I've noticed that the graphics... are just... ugly. The graphics aren't as bad until the levels progress. Once you enter the Jungle parts of the game, you will start regretting you ever played this atrocity.

The game play is really nothing special. Especially the controls that can get very clunky when firing a gun at the enemy. And what I've noticed from the guns are that most of the guns and sounds are very lackluster and recycled from previous War shooters. Another bad part about the game play is when an enemy charges after you with some melee weapon or knife, and you have to hit a certain button combination to push him away or shoot him in the face. It doesn't really feel satisfying, it's just tedious. The creators might have tried too hard with variety and satisfaction.

I rather play Soldier of Fortune: Payback than play ShellShock 2. At least both games are brutally blood-thirsty with gore. No wonder ShellShock 2 was banned in Australia. SoF: Payback was another bad present war-time shooter, but at least the graphics are appealing to look at. Sorry to change the subject a little, but everyone might as well just keep ShellShock 2 off their mind anyway. Do not play this game unless no FPS at all appeals to you.
