Deathloop reviews: 'Ingenious' shooter is a contender for game of the year
"There is nothing on this planet quite like Deathloop," ventured Matt Hewson on games website Player 2.Gamespot and IGN both scored the game a perfect 10, praising its mysterious premise and "Deft storytelling". Gamers play as Colt Vahn, a gruff hitman, who is one of the only people unaffected by the loop, which resets at midnight every night. The Telegraph's Tom Hoggins gave equal praise to the game's character development in his five-star review, singling out Julianna as the game's "Most characterful star". "I've never played a game like Deathloop before. More accurately, I've played a lot of games that are a little bit like it... but never anything that fits so many interesting ideas together to create something so fascinatingly unique", he wrote. Deathloop, despite its flaws, shows that unique, innovative and quirky big budget gaming experiences are now coming to the new generation of consoles - giving people more reasons to think that now is a good time to upgrade.
