XLC Gaming Network writes:- I grew up around the late 80’s early 90’s period of gaming and doing so I will always hold a place in my heart for certain retro titles. The FPS genre will always be a stand out genre in the history of gaming with the likes of Wolfenstein, Doom and Quake. These three are some of the most iconic and defining titles in the genre. This week I got the chance to preview Bedlam, a FPS game which takes you back to the golden era of the 80’s and 90’s period of gaming. However this isn’t just a FPS title as such with developers RedBedlam touting the game as a genre jumping shooter. This is something that makes more sense once you start playing the game and a direction that is very interesting. This is certainly a title which I feel could be a hidden gem so let’s take a look at what you can expect to experience if you pick up this title on Steam Early Access.

That probably means payday is just around the corner too and so where better to spend your latest wages than with the new Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight sale? Take a look at the full list of bargains available for both Xbox One and Xbox 360 players between the 28th March and 3rd April 2017. It's a pretty good week...especially if you like your wrestling."
If it were for its gameplay alone, Bedlam would probably be regarded as a lacking first-person shooter that would have been better if it were released 30 years ago, but when you throw in its surprisingly good storytelling and amazing sense of atmosphere, it becomes an adventure worth embarking upon
I like the look of this game. We need more games that are based on novels! I love Metro 2033 and I want to see more people adapting novels into games
Yeah, if done right, there's a ton of untapped potential in the novel department!
Seen review scores all over the spectrum for Bedlam, but I think any developer should be applauded for trying something different, even if it doesn't quite hit the mark.
I'm getting this in a few years once I finish Fallout 4 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
Pitched as a shooter for those who survived online gaming in the 80s and 90s, Bedlam takes a look through an iconic time in online gaming serving up some authentic gaming nostalgia with up-to-date graphics and gaming features.
