Hard Reset: Redux isn't an epic adventure by any means, but for the price tag it delivers enough bang for your buck.

Honestly, Hard Reset Redux is an easy game to recommend for those wanting a little more of what made Doom such a success last month. Fast-paced shooting, combined with some great visual design and a few upgrades to keep your arsenal fresh. If you’ve not played Hard Reset before, Hard Redux is well worth the price of admission.

Awesome first person shooter!
I am giving it a five star, because there is barely anything this game does wrong. The atmosphere and music is awesome, the graphics and destruction on enemies is awesome with unique blood effects depending on the enemy type. In addition, the lighting and bump mapping looks great; not to mention, the weapon upgrades keeps you intrigued.

very pleasantly surprised :3
admittedly, a gog sale impulse buy for me (i don't believe i'd have gone out of my way to pay the standard twenty buck price tag for this without a youtube review like i normally do), i really did grow to love the game and its presentation. i'm only a couple of hours into it so far, but the overall feel and atmosphere of this fps is really engaging and satisfying just to watch unfold before you. the cutscenes that flesh out the story are done in a neat modern comic book style with fabulous artwork. the voice acting in it is well done and not cheesy in my opinion. goodness knows that if the voicing comes off as cheesy or poorly performed, it gives the game an absurd or campy feel. i've played a couple fps's before and hard reset redux feels like a cool fusion of the newer wolfenstein games and blade runner. very dystopian/cyberpunky and i'm here for it. :-) i missed out on the original release, so there's no way i could honestly compare/contrast it with that version. i see some reviews that paint this game a little unfavorably becuase they *have* played the og one. anywho, the guns are very satisfying to pew pew the robot baddies with and the gameplay gets tense and almost spooky what with a bunch of murderous robots racing at you in a poorly lit industrial-type environment, lol. i think you should get it, it's very fun.

Fun surprise!
I had no idea what to expect from this game when I saw it on a GOG sale for under $2.00. The screenshots looked good, and I liked Flying Wild Hog's work on Shadow Warrior 2, so I took a chance. Glad I did! This is a pretty well-paced, fast and furious FPS. It looks great, runs great, and plays great, even on my budget gaming laptop. What struck me the most was the artistic aesthetic. It looks straight out of the original Blade Runner. The streets are dark and grimy, high rises draped in near endless neon signs surround you everywhere, and when you look up, you get a sense of scale that reminds me of the classic Ridley Scott film. Flying cars scuttle about near and far, up, up, WAY up in the air to be swallowed by a persistent dark, rainy sky. I really enjoyed my ten hours or so with this game, and I only knock off a point because the story is a bit by the numbers 'ex military tough guy takes on the evil future corporation/AI' fare. The story unfolds in between levels with some pretty cool comic book style cutscenes, but there's just not much there. That, and the game could have used some more enemy variety. This game is on sale for $1.99 right now. It's well worth your time, and it's worth more than that, to be sure.

Shooting game
I remember hearing about this game around the time of its release but never really picking it up. Said "what the h*ck" when I saw it on sale and for that price, it's an okay time. It delivers on what it promises to be: A dumb shooter where you shoot enemies with big guns. The story is forgettable at best. You can tell that this is just the testosterone-fueled fantasy of some Polish guys. The fun part is more about strategizing fights and using your environment to take the least amount of possible damage. The dash mechanic, which is apparently part of this redux version, helps soften the blow a lot if you do find yourself out of position. Some bad stuff that has to be mentioned though: The level design outside of the fighting arenas is quite bad at times. Multiple times I was left wondering where to go. For this type of game where you're supposed to turn your brain off between fights, you really shouldn't have to wrinkle your brain to find the next lever to push. Weapon diversity is there, but it's so clunky to switch between the different modes of the two weapons mid-combat that I found it more useful to only unlock the stuff I would actually use and just leave the rest as is. The katana you find midway through feels very out of place as well and just used up time when switching between the other two weapons.
