Livelock

Run, shoot, blow things up. A twin stick shooter that I played with a keyboard and mouse, because that's what civilised people do. Livelock features robot avatars on a mission to save the world from other robots. The varied powers, weapons and powerups of the playable robots are numerous and varied across the different models, but generally boil down to shoot more, shoot faster or activate a power that knocks things over or affects their movement. It's ok. Speaking of ok, the enemies are plentiful and the variety of their types is acceptable. Some shoot, some punch, and some explode. The terrain also explodes, though not all of it, so you'll find yourself totalling a truck, but unable to affect a line of bollards. It's all.....ok.

VERDICT: Probably worth $5 from the bargain bin but not a cent more.

Final Word: It's definitely worth checking out for the co-op mode if nothing else.
