The rise of the First Person Shooter during the early 1990's was a significant leap for gaming tech. Whilst Wolfenstein 3D and Doom ruled the roost on PC's, console gamers weren't entirely left out.

Whilst ports of those PC classics were available, original titles would also make an appearance. Such as Bloodshot, a Mega Drive and Mega CD release developed by Domark and published by Acclaim in 1994.

Does the power of Blast Processing make this a First Person Shooter one you'll want to power through?
