Xbox 360 Critic Reviews

A funny sort of cat-and-mouse first person shooter with an original premise and style. An absolute bargain at the price, and a game that gives more expensive XBLA titles a run for their money. There's plenty of fun to be had, and Bloody Good Time certainly live up to its name.

Outerlight (The Ship) came up with a boosted version of its favorite genre : the murder game. And works rather nicely ! For 5 euros / 400 Microsoft Points on Steam and Xbox Live Arcade only ? Seriously: it's a good deal.

The game feels unique, looks good, and adds a new twist not seen in a lot of multiplayer games.

Bloody Good Time is the spiritual successor to The Ship. It maintains its quirky style of action and strategy combined with a Sim-like gameplay. At its current low pricepoint it's hard to pass up on.

Freaky, ironic, disrespectful, Outerlight's game is a nice FPS and a funny lesson on how to kill people in strange manners. Not a masterpiece of Xbox Live, but a worthy experience for multiplayer games addicted, at a cheap price.

This unusual first-person shooter barely boasts enough content to justify even its budget price tag.

With a more refined combat system, BGT would be a fine prospect at its slim price tag. As it is, it doesn't quite live up to its title, but then Fairly Good Time doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Some nice black humour but way too tedious gameplay.

Between lag, lockups, and a general lack of players, Bloody Good Time guarantees that you'll have anything but. [Feb 2011, p.79]

The concept may be a worthwhile shot in the dark, but its choppy execution is straight to video.
