There's a reason they call it blue
When was the last time you played a rail shooter? Excluding a few surprise breakouts like Child of Eden and The House of the Dead: Overkill, these controlled shooters are on a slow track to obsoleteness, hearkening back to a time when arcades ruled the world. Thats why a game like Blue Estate--a rail-shooter massacre rife with idiot gangsters, crude humor, and ham-fisted satire based on the kitschy comic of the same name--is such a weird shot in the dark. But it works in its bizarre way, and being locked onto a track while mafia goons come at you with bottles and machetes was never so entertaining.
For some players, the games loud, snarky, and ultra-violent nature might be too much to handle, but if youre into silly pseudo-noir with a dash of skull-cracking, Blue Estate is right up your alley.
