Drawn To Death Reviews
New game from David Jaffe does have some great moments, especially when all four players on the map know what they're doing. Shame it's buried beneath jokes that are beyond bad taste, clumsy controls and horrible matchmaking.

Drawn To Death is an interesting idea that has been poorly implemented. The art style is fantastic to look at, but it’s at odds with the gameplay and isn’t helped by a lacklustre HUD.
Despite a unique design concept and a visually appealing art style, Drawn to Death fails to capture the magic of a truly great arena shooter, and degrades its quality with unfunny dialogue and juvenile insults.
Drawn to Death is one of the most disappointing games I've played in recent memory. The premise is fantastic and there is a heap of potential buried beneath the surface. Unfortunately, even after you dig past that rough outer shell, the inside is almost entire empty and devoid of engaging content.
With a look this distinctive, Drawn to Death could have hit the ground running. But as a decent shooter it merely limps, thanks to a number of unfortunate design choices, a lack of options, and rampant bugs. Intricate levels, varied weapons and unique characters may have looked good on paper, but any positives Drawn to Death has get scribbled over and obscured by the constant barrage of un-funny abuse it insists on endlessly spewing in your face.
One of the most unique-looking shooters of recent years, but not necessarily in a good way. Especially not when the action is this unrefined and purposefully annoying.
Drawn to Death has a big imagination, but it does not play well with others.
With its immature design and humour, Drawn To Death is a game out of time. Its server issues and general instability compound that, distracting from what could have been a fun arena shooter.
Drawn to Death is done with soul, but disappointing in gameplay aspects. It can not cope with it's duties in terms of matchmaking and providing a comfortable online play. And considering that except online there's nothing here, it becomes quite sad.

Not all good ideas are executed well but for a game to be this incoherent and aweful not in mechanics (which are at best mediocre) but in its presentation is something only David Jaffe can do! So I recommend Drawn to Death for only thise who have no self esteem whatsoever (or a high one not to care) and even than, the game isn't anytime more than a second hand product of much better titles

"Drawn to Death feels like the embodiment of the bad reputation that 90s punk bands used to have."
Drawn to Death is not an easy game to evaluate. You can experience fun matches, but there's so few of them that it's not worth mentioning. Matchmaking is terrible and virtually everything from heroes, weapons or abilities is strongly unbalanced. To make matters worse, the game's white background can make your head hurt.

Drawn To Death isn’t a good game. The game is terribly unbalanced and lacks content.
Drawn to Death has a lot of potentials, but developers didn't use them. As a resault, the final outcome isn't fun at all and gets frustrating after a while.

It's probably just as well Sony gave this thing away for free with PSPlus memberships. It's the only hope the game has of actually keeping an audience (because it's a multiplayer-only game, it needs a large and sustained community).
David Jaffe returns with an obnoxious, sketchy shooter that packs a surprising - if not entirely pleasant - punch.
