    Welcome to the Club
    The Club is a third person shooter from Bizarre Creations. The Club is , aptly enough , set around a club of millionaires who gamble on the lives of the member. The basic aim of The Club is to get through a level , racking up as many points as possible in a short time.
    -Gameplay
    Each of the 8 levels has 6 rounds. Each of the rounds is set in a different part of the current area , which range from an old prison to a manor in rural England , and using a different game mode. The game modes are very similar to each other , but still offer a bit of variation over the whole "Run and shoot" gameplay. The controls are a bit awkward at start , but once you get used to them you'll find it incredibly simple to pull off the most stylish of kills. Theres a fairly large list of weapons ranging from pistols and machine guns to rocket launchers and mini guns The online mode has the 5 single player game modes and 3 additional ones.
    -Graphics
    The graphics in The Club are amazing. They don't fully take advantage of the Ps3's 1080i capability , only going up to 720p , but you'd hardly notice the difference. Each of the 8 characters are of very different styles and the design on each of them is of constant high quality. The varied level design is excellent , but can be a bit confusing at times.
    -Sound
    There isn't much sound to speak of in The Club. The music has a sense of urgency and the weapon sounds pack an almighty punch.

    Ranks
    Gameplay : 7/10. It gets a bit boring after a while.
    Graphics : 9/10.
    Lifespan : 8/10. If your the kind of person who always goes for the high score , you have a huge amount of play time here.

    Not exactly an essential addition to a collection , but worth at least a rental.

    I downloaded the demo when it first became available, and have not played it since.

    Something about it, I do not like. The graphics are nice, and the game play makes for a decent multiplayer experience.

    Playing it brought back fond memories of playing Winback on the N64, which was a game I loved... This game just isn't good enough. :(

    Not too bad. Not much of a story to it. Gnarly as hell idea though. Fun for the first bit, but I got bored pretty quick.

    I also played the Demo once, and only once. Didn't really get me hooked much at all, just felt like a slow shooter and am not really a fan of these slow shooters. None the less great review there Jynx, short and sweet but you better believe it covers what it needed to, great stuff.
