Killzone: Mercenary reviews drop - get all the scores
The review embargo for Killzone: Mercenary has lifted. Has Guerrilla Cambridge captured the spirit of its Amsterdam-based parent studio, despite squashing it down for the Vita?
Despite the late embargo (in terms of release date), not many scores have come through yet. At this stage, it looks like critics aren't hating it, but there aren't many of the high scores the core console releases have pulled in, and there're some rather alarming numbers at the bottom of the pile if you're an "eight or above" kind of gamer.
Past shooters like Unit 13, Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified and Resistance: Burning Skies have also failed to set the world on fire, despite it being touted as one of the handheld's key genres,
Dave's also been playing it and has assembled some thoughts on the matter.
