This is one of the better games of it's Genre. I wouldn't say it's the best, but it's pretty damn good. :D I love these types of games, these "Arena" combat type games, but not quite as much as I love "Bullet Hell" Games. The game it-self is loads of fun, I love all the upgrades there are, and that you can't just "have all the upgrades" You have to pick and choose your "Equipment" and hope it all works out. Now that being said this game is heavily relient on skill over "Who has the better gun". You could buy all the "Best" guns and still SUCK and not win the round. Each gun has it's own pros and cons. The beginning pistol doesn't do a-lot of damage, but it does damn near TRIPLE the damage if you shoot them in the crotch!
Oh speaking of that, the bonus points are hillarious. One of the bonuses you get is the "Crotchshot" which almost gets you as much points as a headshot (If not the same). There is also the "Buttshot" which as you can imagine, is killing someone by shooting them in the ass. LOL It's just hillarious! Then there is the Ultimate Assassination! Which is killing someone by shooting them in the BACK of their head. :D There are others, but I don't remember what they are at this current point in time. :P
Compared to other games of it's type, I would definitely recommend this over others. Raze 2 is amazing, you gotta love the story, trying to save the world before the zombie virus released by the aliens you are fighting takes over your body, and turns you into the one thing everyone is trying to fight. :D Though I don't like the story as much as some others, It's still a really good game. I would definitely recommend it over the newer "Strike Force Heroes" games. (Which I personally do not like), but not over Arcane the game that introduced me into this Genre. Before I played that game, I wasn't even interested in this Genre. :D
