PopSlinger Reviewed by Cyril Lachel on . It's hard to resist the style and charm of PopSlinger, a throwback shoot ‘em up now making its way to PlayStation and Xbox consoles. With strong characters and a story full of 1980s nostalgia, there’s a lot to like about this all-too-brief action game. Unfortunately, the shallow gameplay mechanics aren’t quite at the same level as the presentation. The soda-inspired weapons are cool in concept, but not all that different in execution, and there are a lot of weird gameplay decisions that feel like they were made at random. And then it just ends, right as it’s starting to get good. Maybe it’s because I’m not all that into soda, but PopSlinger failed to quench my shoot ‘em up thirst. Rating: 57%
