Bulletstorm is now on shelves in the US, and if you haven't read our review, then consider this sentence the equivalent of Christian Bale dancing up and down your street singing, "Read all about it! The brick-shittingest new IP of 2011 reviewed!" But not content with today's mere outpouring of critical praise, EA, Epic and People Can Fly have stolen a few more headlines by announcing the first paid DLC for the game...
Want to work with Epic Games? Good luck with that. Want to kill with Epic Games? That's a little more doable. This weekend, the Bulletstorm developers at People Can Fly and Epic Games are inviting PS3 fans to join them online for a little co-operative Anarchy Mode action.
In the lead-up to Cliff Bleszinski's big announcement on tonight's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (which we already know is Gears of War 3), Epic Games and EA announced a new title: Bulletstorm...
Official PlayStation Magazine editor-in-chief Tim Clark picks three highlights (and one lowlight) from the presser.
"Do cool stuff, get cool stuff, do more cool stuff." That's what Bulletstorm is all about, according to Cliff Bleszinski. In this video of the Hideout level, the same demo we saw at E3, Cliff's deep, sexy man-voice explains the vision behind Bulletstorm. See the vistas, the skill shots, the weapons, and the f*ckers that need kicking off ledges from Cliff's point of view...

The Old Spice model has just posted a video response to a tweet from Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski – and it’s really funny. That is all.
Epic Games' Bulletstorm trailer from Gamescom is back, though this time it’s got some commentary from Producer Tanya Jessen. The trailer serves as a reveal for the enormous Heckaton, a legendary monster that makes Gears of Wars’ Riftworm look tame in comparison. The trailer also shows off Trischka, a hard as nails, bad-ass chick in a game full of hard as nails bad-ass dudes. There are also some mutants called Burnouts, who sport pus filled oozing sores as their only weak point. Lovely.
Forget love. Forget religion. Forget the beauty of nature. Forget bungee jumping over alligators with the rope tied to your man-potatoes. Going off current evidence there is no experience more life-affirming than partaking in the creative destruction of Bulletstorm's limb-shredding, combo-killing narchy. I found that out when I previewed Epic and People Can Fly's upcoming FPS batshit-'em-up, and this new content description from the ESRB's rating session only confirms it.
The staid, grey world of modern FPS is going to take a solid, Technicolor kick in the balls when Bulletstorm lands in February. Want to know just how amusing the shape of the bruise is going to be? Click on.
There's a storm approaching! It's not a big deal, though - just know that if you live in Michigan you may see 2 to 4 inches of snow tonight, so have that shovel ready to clear out the drive in the morning. Also, a Bulletstorm demo is coming to Xbox Live and PSN later this month...

If you don't count the ESRB card and producer credits, the teaser for tomorrow's Bulletstorm demo manages to go ten seconds before someone says “shit.” If that seems like a blue-balled eternity, rest assured that once those ten agonizing seconds of pretending like anyone cares about Bulletstorm's storyline are over, it's “motherfucker” this and “butthole-clenching” that and explosions and gibs till the cows come home (at which point, the cows get blown up in a manner that’s as inventive as it is sadistic)...
