Boomstock is here, baby, and if you are now wondering, "What is Boomstock?" I am happy to explain: It's "a celebration of booming and shooting," with new game announcements, updates, demos, and a very nice Steam sale on retro-inspired shooters.
Earlier this year we rang up a list of 10 essential boomer shooters that every FPS fan should play, and if you're a little behind on that particular homework you'll be thrilled to know that all but one of them—Quake, which feels a little ironic, somehow—is currently on sale. That includes:
- Amid Evil - $6/£5/€6 (70% off)
- Dusk - $6.79/£5.69/€6.62 (66% off)
- Selaco - $18.74/£15.74/€18.37 (25% off)
- HROT - $10/£8.37/€9.75 (50% off)
- Graven - $5/£4.19/€5 (80% off)
- Wrath: Aeon of Ruin - $5/£4.19/€5 (80% off, I'm playing this one myself right now and it's quite good)
- Ion Fury - $10/£8.39/€10 (60% off)
- Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - $11/£9.49/€11 (50% off)
- Blood Fresh Supply - $2/£1.43/€1.63 (80% off)
That'll keep you busy for a while, but yes, there is more. Blood West is down to $8.49, the Shadow Warrior Trilogy bundle is under $20 for the whole shebang (and it's a ton of fun), Hard Reset Redux (which I will always defend) is $2, Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem is half-price at $10, and if you've ever had the urge to try BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3: I OPENED A PORTAL TO HELL IN THE FAVELA TRYING TO REVIVE MIT AIA I NEED TO CLOSE IT, this is your lucky day my friend: $2.09 will buy you that ticket to ride.
There's more, of course, but you get the idea: Lots of shooters, not a lot of money. The Boomstock boomer shooter sale on Steam runs until September 27—if you've got some time to kill, you can catch the whole Boomstock showcase below.
