Ion Fury + Aftershock (PC)

Revisited this game again. This time after playing Blood, I've come to appreciate the alt fires as well as weapons I don't usually use. I pulled up a guide and explored all the secrets this time around and was surprised to find this game make a lot of references. Clearly a labor of love, my opinion hasn't changed about this game albeit I recall previously saying the game got kind of boring by the middle part because it was all caverns and generic labs and idk on replay I just kept going and never felt the monotony of things.

Like Amid Evil, my true reason for replaying was to see the expansion pack Aftershock. They put in a vehicle section and an open world cross-country thing ala Half-Life 2. It's great. And I smiled as they finally included a Silent Hill 1 megasecret (the main game only put SH4) in this one. There were new weapons that I found situational at best but nontheless fun to use. And there were new enemies but they came like at the butt end of the campaign and I mean they were great additions, I just wish I spent more time with them and there weren't alot either. No, the main reason to play Aftershock really is that there's just more Ion Fury to go around and I honestly wasn't disappointed. They even just made the final boss a traditional circlestrafer (the main game final boss was a bullshit Icon of Sin reference that required precision aiming amidst a sea of mooks) which was refreshingly easy.

It's not so cliche anymore when it's happening to you.
