Here's something you might have missed. It's got PLENTY of problems, but the muzzle flash just shines too brightly. I loved this unfinished gem.

@@Scyon13 This is exactly why it is actually worth paying for reviews, actually. Since this channels can probably reach potentially a couple thousand actual buyers among the hardcore, it's likely cheap to pay for a good review. Imagine if you had to pay to reach 2 million buyers, now that's too much of a risk to pay. A few hundred bucks is much more reasonable.

@@Erlaxis I doubt a few hundred bucks would do it though you would have to pay the a couple grand at least and that would be for a 7 or 8, with the price rising on a yearly basis also then why wouldn't large companies pay for their bad games to get good reviews? It doesn't make financial sense as they would just be shooting themselves in the foot in the future as big name reviewers would just ask for more and more.

Considering the films were from around the 1990 (when some of these content creators were too young to soak up the era's pop culture or had even yet to be born) and international interest towards Hong Kong films is waning, I'm not surprised the themes of this game flew over their heads.

To offset that though I think ShillUp said right at the outset that this game was built by two guys hacking away on their own. Ralph tends to give a bit of extra leeway to small and indie teams but also clearly says that. Look at his review of Tower of Time, Gris, Ashen, even WH40K martyr & Darksiders 3 ... he's always on record of being a little easier on smaller shops and reviewing them with a lens to the expected capability of indie-scene games. We're not going to get AAA out of a 2 man studio, but indie games are a different scope and expectation. (He only ever really screwed up on his No Man's Sky review). Remember - the Hong Kong massacre is less than $20 on steam right now so they're not charging a crazy amount to begin with. Anyways, all that said - there's something to be said for a flash game every once in a while. :)

Holy crap this looks fucking awesome! I haven't really sat down and played a game in a while. I typically love style and rule of cool, over efficiency and precision. This looks like just the ticket. Thanks for pointing this game out! Thanks

How great is it that the director of John Wick 4 credited The Hong Kong Massacre as the inspiration for the top down perspective action sequence with the Dragon’s breath shotgun.

What's your opinion on Anthem now, after about half a year of your last video? I was pretty hyped once, but the more I see of it, the less I like it. :-/ A preview/ review from you would be very helpful. :D Can we expect some Anthem content? I guess after you played the demo, right?

This game is the perfect example of what fun gameplay can achieve on what is on every other basis a bland or even bad game. Gameplay and fun are the two paramount features a game must have above all others

I agree with everything you said. I had no idea this game existed until I saw the launch trailer, then I bought it no questions asked. Yes, it has problems but it is also the most satisfying shooter since Max Payne 3. BTW: wot part of 'straylia you from? I'm from melbourne

This is funny in 2023, bc Hong Kong Massacre is doing Max Payne, but people see John Wick; but Max Payne was doing the Matrix that’s, also, John Wick … sort of. And now, a John Wick did Hong Kong Massacre, so whole thing is a giant Keanu ouroboros.

Super safe might work if you just want top get through but you won't get any upgrades that way because you need to do fast, or no slo-mo, or bullets only hit the enemy perfectly runs to get enough to stars to unlock stuff.

Great review... made me buy this the ps4 pro, im really enjoying this except for the slightly off controls and maybe if we could get bullet tracers a different color and when changing angles to fire it can be pretty jarring.. well on ps4 anyway, and turn the blurring off on the final kill 😄 hope the devs add a few patches to tighten everything up

Maybe for the future, just...when you are reviewing games based on PC gameplay, at least I would be happy - if I know what engine the game runs on. Is it Unity or some custom made, etc. Thnks!
