The latter has you drench yourself in the blood of your foes to regain health, and is an absolute rip-roaring time. It's safe to say that I was blown away by Boomerang X. As I said in my Boomerang X preview, it's the DOOM game I've always wanted and it may have ruined FPS games for me. Gun are overrated - boomerangs are the new hotness.īoy does the boomerang feel good to fling, and you'll quickly get access to a handful of superpowers that'll only make the wooden spinner even more fun to use.

It's fast, frenetic, and a whole heap of cool. String together a flawless succession of moves, and trust me, the feeling is unrivalled. What else should I be playing:Try Far Cry Primal if you want this with fewer guns and more mammoths.įar Cry 2 was excellent, but Far Cry 3 stripped out much that was awkward about the game - its grim setting, its protagonist's malaria, its respawning enemies - for something that was less interesting but more purely fun, thrilling and silly.

The Himalayan-inspired setting of Kyrat is a gorgeous location, and it's even more eager to give you toys to play with than its predecessor. Liked the hang glider in Far Cry 3?
