Set in the world of a deadly underground bloodsport, "The Club," is a violent arcade style first-person shooter. Short on story, "The Club" relies heavily on fast-paced, timed action. Players choose from eight different characters, each with their own unique skills and fighting style, and set them loose in a variety of urban environments with a singular agenda: kill or be killed. As the body count piles up, points are assessed for accuracy and "flair." Definitely NOT recommended for the younger crowd. (Rated M for Mature; 360, PC and PS3)
