Blue Estate Critic Reviews

Packed with solid gameplay and a small learning curve, Blue Estate breathes new life into the dying rail shooter genre.

Blue Estate is a light gun game that doesn't use a light gun. Grab your DualShock 4, because this on-rails shooter uses gyroscope technology to take players through eight exciting stages. Too bad the jokes are awful and the gameplay isn't as accurate as needed, because Blue Estate does a great job of staging action.

A solid on-rails shooter that if great fun for the short time you will spend with it.

If you need a good excuse to kill a weekend and you are in the mood for some mindless entertainment with a friend (or solo, if you want), then Blue Estate is worth checking out.

A decent on rail shooter that just loves to be plain stupid and politically incorrect. Simple, straightforward fun, enjoyable if you're in the mood for mutant chickens, meta-referential jokes and "low-budget John Woo moments".

Blue Estate is not a bad game, and some of the things it does using the DualShock 4 are interesting, but for all intents and purposes it’s a light gun game that will last players a short time, and it’s a rather expensive one at that. I would recommend it, but at a nice sales price.

Compared to recent attempts to try and revive the on-rails genre, Blue Estate probably comes out on top. The DualShock 4 serves as a perfect replacement for PlayStation Move and, when paired with intuitive mechanics and stylised visuals, makes for a solid downloadable title.

Blue Estate shows that an on-rails shooter can work efficiently on PlayStation 4.

Blue Estate’s gameplay is actually really good: the motion controls work well and the simple control scheme makes it easy to play, if a little basic.

Sure, in the end, it all depends how much you enjoy this ever moving shooting gallery with personality, and ultimately it will be the determining factor of your purchase.

I give Blue Estate a little credit and weigh it more on the side of challenging instead of on the side of failure, just because there were some fun parts and some people might love the long levels, testy controls, and the crazy story.

Sometimes fun, sometimes not, Blue Estate is really just an average rail shooting game sold at an expensive price for only 4 hours of gameplay.

A lewd, crude on-rails effort that occasionally offers sharp blasting thrills, yet shoots itself in the foot (and mouth) with misjudged gags and gyroscope problems.

Utilizing the DualShock 4’s gyroscope and light sensor is a great gimmick, and it’s a concept I hope other rail shooters implement. Beyond that, though, Blue Estate is a boring shell full of cheap, unfunny stereotypes that isn’t worth a single playthrough.

If you love low-brow jokes that aren't funny, and laughing at overweight people just because they exist, you’d still be hard pressed to enjoy Blue Estate. I

For a game based on a comic book it’s suspiciously tedious and wide of the mark in terms of its humour - although we recognise that is subjective so you might take more from it than we did - but really the choices behind the control scheme mean that it fails in terms of what we’re here to assess; the game. From the moment you switch it on you’re wondering why you downloaded it, and the developers have no excuses.

Crude, sexist, and borderline racist, Blue Estate aims low in search of laughs – and still misses the target by a mile.

Not broken, just painfully, awfully average and repetitive. Offensive, too.

The game's crass humour, repetitive gameplay and cultural indelicacy results in a depressing relic that should be consigned to the same draw as that lightgun peripheral you never use anymore.
