Abstract: There are two important things you need to know about the sequel to Shadow Warrior.Indeed, if I was to rank the skullgun in a list of Shadow Warrior's best weapons, it would probably land somewhere in the mid teens, above the half-dozen or so pistols I co...
This isn't helped by the story, which is paper thin. Luckily, in a moment of self awareness, the game has made all of the story excerpts optional, so if the story wears thin on you, as it did me, you can skip it entirely and just brawl.This is great becau...

The McDonalds ball pit of first-person shooters: disorganized, colourful, daft, and a surprisingly good time considering its limited avenues of entertainment. Shadow Warrior 2 is well worth your attention...
Shadow Warrior 2 is a fast, gorgeous shooter with smart loot components, trapped inside a world and age that lost its luster ages ago. Where the core gameplay still feels fantastic, the story, world and mission structure gradually drag it down short of be...
