Description: A furious PvP Multiplayer brawl in VR set in the Saloon-iverse of Cowbots and Aliens. Free movement, deadly gunplay, multiple competitive modes and a custom networked physics system that lets you use EVERYTHING as a weapon makes Cowbots and Aliens the immensely satisfying ruckus VR deserves. Includes intensely fun single player AI to play against as well. Flip a table and take cover, break a chair over your friends head, hurl a tomahawk, jump out with six-shooters blazing or just practise shooting beer bottles out of the sky. Cowbots and Aliens is a wild west brawl scene brought to life by robots, aliens, the magic of VR and you!
Review: Cowbots and Aliens is one of those games that was probably a lot better when it was first released than it is now. That is mostly down to the lack of online players to play against, but at least you could have a shootout with friends. If you have ever had a dream of being in a Wild-West saloon shootout this is the game for you and to be honest it is a lot of fun to play. While a little basic in terms of graphics you can easily find yourself getting into this game. But there is no way I could ever justify its £9.29 price tag, so it is a good job it is often in a sale. I wouldn’t want to pay any more than a few quid for this, but it is worth a look…for the right price.
