We said in our Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon review: "A standalone sandbox packing nostalgic action thrills alongside contemporary gaming commentary. You don't need to be an '80s kid to 'get' Blood Dragon, but it helps."

Loving it so far, it is like Tron was in an orgy with every cliche ridden 80's action and sci fi movies and gave birth to Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon!
From the VHS tracking style loading screens, to over the top guns (love the minigun where if you fire for any length of time Rex starts screaming "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"....a la Keanu in Point Break firing into the sky in frustration lol)
RELEASE THE CYBER SHARKS!

The "Kobracon" weapon reminds me of two things; "Cobra" from action force/GI Joe, and Cobra-Kai from Karate kid.
