Gunz - The Difficult

Gunz - The Duel, is an amazing 3D 3rd person shooter that also has a touch of 3d sword fighter. Unlike most shooter games that involve melee, the difference between the two is quite obvious, yet amazingly balanced. So much so that pros will continually swap between melee and range in the middle of a fight jumping in for a slash or stab then jumping back and gunning just as quick.

The game is basically "Devil May Cry" + "The Matrix" The fast paced shooting and sword slashing is complimented well by your ability to run up and along walls, dive from and behind cover, and even reload on the go. It's even possible to reload during any of those tricks which makes them great for getting out of a quick jam and quickly getting back into the fight.

Gunz's biggest draw back is how long it takes to get the hang of the literally constant flow of combat. This is by no means your average shooter, this game is only recommended to those with the quickest and sharpest of reflexes.
But to those that fit that category, you'll be happy to learn that Gunz - The Duel scores a 7 out of 10
