If you get your gun out too quickly in Receiver 2, you’ll shoot yourself. Pop a bullet through a window while you’re standing too close, and you’re asking for a shard to slash through your jugular. Or maybe for the debris to jam up your rounds, leading to deadly miscalculation the next time you run up against a turret. Bleep. Click. Dead.
The slightest mistake can be fatal, and this is what makes Receiver 2 one of the most captivating games I’ve ever played.
