Part hard-boiled crime story, part paranoid espionage thriller, 100 Bullets follows what happens when people from all walks of life meet Agent Graves, a mysterious figure who offers his "clients" the opportunity of a lifetime: an attache case containing the proof, the gun, and the carte blanche immunity to exact revenge on a person who's done them an irrevocable wrong.
Based on the Brian Azzarello's Veritgo comic of the same name, 100 Bullets features an original story by Azzarelo himself, two playable characters, and fully interactive environments.
This version of 100 Bullets was cancelled when Acclaim closed up shop, but a new game based on 100 Bullets was created for a 2007 release.
You've got to hand it to the folks at Acclaim: they're trying to breathe some new life into a tired game genre. By adapting the comic books The Red Star and 100 Bullets, Acclaim is giving gamers a chance to see someone other than Spidey or Batman (or whoever has a blockbuster opening that summer) take out some nefarious evildoers. The characters in 100 Bullets, however, might fall into the latter group. Read More »

The premise of the comic 100 Bullets is based on is an unusual but interesting one -- certainly one that will sound particularly evocative to people who hold the extremely dated opinion that comics are solely and wholly the realm of superheroes in tights. What would you do if a mysterious man handed you a suitcase with a gun, 100 bullets, and irrefutable proof that someone had damaged your life beyond repair -- and then told you that you could get away with killing that individual? This premise is at the heart of an intertwined and gritty conspiracy story full of secrecy and intrigue. Guns, comics, and conspiracy? It worked for Max Payne. Read More »
Does this sound familiar? A loved one has been killed and suddenly you're given big guns and an opportunity to even the score? This clich¿ sounds like something straight out of a comic book, and in the case of 100 Bullets, it's exactly that: a comic inspired game. Based on an original story from the comic book of the same name by Brian Azzarello -- who wrote this as an original script -- the story focuses on a world of clandestine operatives, betrayal, and conspiracies.
