With the upcoming Shadow Warrior 2 looking to be just as bonkers as the 2013 revival of the series, Flying Wild Hog seemed to have the old school FPS market to themselves, until Doom came out last month. Even their previous game, Hard Reset, had taken an old school approach, but this game didn’t have as grand a fanfare. Hard Reset Redux overhauls that game, expands on its short length and brings this gorgeous looking title to console for the first time.
On Episode 157, the Gamers In Beta crew opens the show with some non-gaming talk. They discuss some of their guilty pleasures and heroes. Once the gaming discussion kicks in gear, they talk about the Steam Summer sale, the availability of the XB1 S models, and Oculus dropping their previous DRM stance.
Games they’ve been playing are: The Division, DOOM, Hard Reset Redux, Marvel Heroes 2016, The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine, Overwatch, Mario Tennis, and Portal 2.
COG writes: Hard Reset Redux is an FPS that tries to recapture the magic from the classic run and gun era of shooters while adding a few unique tweaks of its own.
Steve Melanson writes:
"For someone who enjoys FPS’s, and has never played Hard Reset, then I recommend picking up this game without question. For the $20 asking price you get a solid single player experience, and you’ll get to experience another great shooter."
