Replay – Breakdown
Ever wanted to do a combat roll, dropkick your enemy, and backflip your way out of a firefight? Released in 2004 for the Xbox, Namco's Breakdown is a first-person action game that combines gunplay with over-the-top melee acrobatics.
Join Andrew Reiner, Brian Shea, Suriel Vazquez, and GI intern Zak Wojnar in this trip through a relic of the shooter landscape. Stick around for the second segment, where in a rare moment of Replay Roulette, the team gives up and picks a new game.
