As TransFed Marshall John "Dutch" Cane, you've been assigned to suppress a routine clone uprising on the massive battle platform, Honour Guard. Little do you know, the clones have been exposed to a Xeno genome virus, which has mutated them into aggressive, grotesque aliens. Their plan is to control the platform so they can spread the deadly virus to the TransFed colonies and the rest of the universe. Your orders are to take down the uprising at all costs, even if it means destroying the Honour Guard.

Ten levels of intense side scrolling action
Blast through walls, ceilings and floors to discover secrets and power-ups
Choose from a variety of weapons: 20mm Pump-Action Shotgun, 8-meter Flamethrower, Plasma Rifle, Machine Gun, 8'' NailGun and more.
360 degree range of firing motion
From mutated beasts to alien insects, evade 14 different types of enemies.
Collect "Modifiers" to power-up your weapons. Increase the level of efficiency, diversity and damage or enhance your physical attributes: Health, Speed, Invisibility, etc.

ONLY $10 at EB

Well that looks pretty cool, despite some lackluster reviews. I hadn't heard of it, so thanks for the mention! I sez a bunch of decent $10 games iz better than one overhyped $50 game.

Well, I'll be picking THIS baby up after christmas. After all, some of my favorite games are games I paid $10 for! (Can you say Chu Chu Rocket and Zombie Revenge boys and girls?)

AWESOME! deal, I bought one for the PS2 as soon as Blowout came out a couple weeks back for $9.99. It is like Contra game play and a game called "ONE" for the PS One, you can also pick up Blowout for XBox for $19.99. I LOVE Blowout, awesome game. :D :D :rocker: :rocker:

I, too, picked one up on sight. I think it's a decent game and an AWESOME game for 10 clams.

A Walmart here (No, not the one that fucked me on Mario Kart) has like 30 copies of that for $10... so I guess I should get it now. I just hope Murphy's law doesn't screw me up, so they'll have none after that.
