==Review==

Bullet Sorrow VR is the latest title from a studio by the name of VikingVRStudio and what they’ve produced is a first-person VR shooter that almost everyone that have played it, consider it the spiritual successor to the Time Crisis series, except vastly better in almost every single way. Are they speaking the truth or is it nothing more than an over assumption? I think it’s about time I dived into the game and see if what the public is saying about it is true.

Bullet Sorrow VR has taken full control of its VR FPS system and thrust it completely into an experience that is quick, frantic, and the very definition of satisfying at times. When you first load in to the game, you’ve got a tutorial that teaches you everything you need to know in about 30 seconds – how to move, how to use cover, and how to shoot your weapons – then proceeds to put you right into the action. Once you pick up that pistol on the table, an enemy comes your way and starts to take pot-shots at you, thus starting you on your adventure.

How you move in this game is by aiming to a spot that you wish to move, hold down the button, and watch as you “blink” to that spot. It isn’t a very complicated way of moving across the map, but it does mean that the controls aren’t all that complicated and you can focus on what’s important: shooting people in the face!

Throughout the majority of the game, you’re bound to be dual-wielding your weapons and making the most out of the pair of controllers in your hands. From the beginning of the game, ever since you pulled the trigger for the first time, you’ll quickly come to understand just how satisfying the gunplay in this game really is. When you fire your weapons it has ample recoil that you’re going to have to fight over, but not to a degree that could be considered frustrating. Whenever a bullet makes contact with another enemy, the satisfaction quickly becomes apparent due to the sound the weapons make and the way enemies respond to being hit. Honestly, as far as FPS games go on VR systems, Bullet Sorrow VR is one of these games that manage to pull it off incredibly well!

Even though each individual stage that you go through is meant to be considered a story-based affair, I legitimately could not tell you a thing about what’s going on in this story. Unfortunately, the reason for this is a combination of the gameplay that is too much fun to ignore and how forgettable the story really is. For this game, gameplay is king and the story is a complete afterthought; similar to how old arcade shooters like Time Crisis used to be.

In terms of visuals, Bullet Sorrow VR does a good job of fleshing out the majority of its enemies and locations, especially so when you’re up in space on a ship. The setting reminds of something like the Alien franchise of movies and that’s a setting I can easily find myself getting behind. Weapons are all really well modelled, and even with a few hit-and-miss cases here and there, the game from an aesthetic standpoint succeeds with close to flying colours.

Previously, I forgot to mention one thing that FPS games don’t have too much of anymore and that’s a slow-motion feature. At the push of a button, you can activate slow-motion and bear witness as you see a myriad of bullets flying around you; resulting in a need for you as the player to make like Neo out of the Matrix and dodge them to the best of your abilities. While I must admit that it isn’t a perfect system at times and it does feel like some bullets I’ve dodged properly still somehow manage to hit me in some way; despite this it’s one of the many elements for this game that cements it as such a fun experience.

Overall, Bullet Sorrow VR is a great VR FPS game that plenty of people before me have mentioned that it reminds them a lot of Time Crisis, an accolade that I wouldn’t turn down in the slightest. From a story perspective it’s pretty darn weak and is quickly forgettable, but when you realise just how fast you get lost in the enjoyment of all the shooting and dodging bullets, you sort of forget all about the story and why it’s there to begin with.

Story may be a great let down, but the overall package you get in Bullet Sorrow VR makes it easily one of the best VR FPS games that are currently out on the market and as a result, I would warrant a recommendation to anyone looking for a brand new FPS game for their VR device.
