I had high expectations for High on Life. Even though I'm not an FPS fan, I was excited to play this Xbox exclusive. When I saw the first reviews, I was convinced that the hype was unwarranted, and the game wasn't anything special.

Perhaps the most significant feature of this game is its ambiance. That's probably the best part of the game, for sure. The world is completely crazy in a good way, and I liked it, but I had the feeling that it was too much at some times. The game is 100% crazy all the time, and it can be overwhelming.

The story is as crazy as its ambiance. It's a game that doesn't take anything seriously. Most of the time, you'll be interacting with your talking guns. In the end, the story is crafted to have your guns making jokes while creating a reason for the crazy world.

The gameplay is just okay. It's an FPS, nothing special in this regard. It's a pretty common game in this aspect.

High on Life is not a game for everybody. I only recommend it if you are expecting dark humor and don't care about its simple gameplay. I finished this game disappointed. It's not bad, but it could be better.
