These experiences scream fun and it doesn't take long at all to get lost in the game and find yourself playing "just one more level." Not only that, but the game is genuinely funny and you'll face a midget with a giant head and bull horns, explosive chickens, bikini clad women with automatic weapons and that's just to name a few encounters. The reason to love Chili Con Carnage is because it will have you doing insane action stunts like swinging off meat hooks while shooting enemies, taking out helicopters with rocket launchers and jumping off vehicles before plowing into a group of explosives. For this fact alone, I almost rated this game lower, but once you get used to the quirks of the aiming system and allow yourself to just play the game, that's when the real reward begins. This forces you to almost always be jumping through the air constantly while shooting to make the most of the combat system. This is a good solution for this particular part of combat, but you'll find that normal movement makes it more difficult to utilize the auto-aim. The developers solve this problem by automatically putting you into slow motion once you leap in any direction and then at that point moving the analog stick allows you to aim. Mostly it has to do with the fact that Total Overdose (the game that Chili Con Carnage is part sequel, part remake of) used two analog sticks and had you flying in one direction while being able to shoot 360 degrees while still in the air. But first I want go over the little that's wrong with the game. This is a fairly easy review for me to write because I really like Chili Con Carnage and it's fairly easy to sum up why gamers should care about this title.
