Description: COMBAT INSTINCT is a fast-paced motion-sensing first-person fighting game originally designed for Virtual Reality Gaming experience. Run(using stand-still arm swinging), throw punches, guard, and dodge in this game as you’ll do in an actual fight. Face diversified enemies, and gather BOOK OF REVELATION entries to reveal secrets of the world.
Review: I just don’t even know where I can start with reviewing ‘COMBAT INSTINCT’. I suppose the game doesn’t look too bad and even up-close the textures look good for a VR game. I also liked some of the sound effects from the punches. …well…sadly that is all the nice things I can say about this game. From the poor quality narration to the terrible animation and the abysmal gameplay this game is as poor as action games get. Its just wave after wave of enemies throwing themselves at you and that is it. No skill, no tactics, just mindless gameplay over and over again. Oh, and it costs £11.39 to rub a bit of salt into your wounds for getting the game. If it was just a quid or less I might have suggested you take a look, but until it is that price I would punch this game over and over again in the face until it goes out of your mind.
