GameSpot: 5 / 10 by Cameron Woolsey
Dirty Bomb is frantic and entertaining, but doesn't exactly sparkle with originality and stability.
TotalBiscuit, The Cynical Brit: by John Bain
PC Invasion: 5 / 10 by Paul Younger
Acceptable, but could have been so much better. Dirty Bomb is hampered by free-to-play nagging, small maps, and too many uninspiring matches.

Dirty Bomb Description
Dirty Bomb for PC is a dynamic first-person online free-to-play shooter, similar to the renowned Team Fortress 2. Splash Damage is the studio responsible for the production, the team itself has been founded a few years ago by ex-moders and specializes in this game genre, the productions they have previously created include such titles as Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and Brink.
The action of Dirty Bomb takes place in a futuristic London destroyed by a mysterious cataclysm. The town has now become a battleground for private military organizations, the soldiers of each of the factions now fight for the dominion over the city, as well as the riches it holds.
The players will have a choice of several classes in Dirty Bomb, each distinguished by a unique skillset. The developers have prepared a number of characters, including : Rhino (a demolition expert, who uses a mighty minigun on the battlefield), Arty (a support, offering allies ammunition and calling in airstrikes) and Nader (an agile, quick and warlike woman). Every hero has a specific set of weapons and abilities, using them effectively and playing to the strengths of your class is the key to victory. Furthermore, the game is strongly focused on cooperation, choosing the correct character to strengthen your team’s lineup is crucial and is a major step on your way to victory.
There is a variety of game modes in Dirty Bomb for PC, designed for 5v5 and 8v8 skirmishes. The developers from Splash Damage have put a lot of effort towards the Objective (completing specific tasks) and Stop-Watch (attacking and defending objectives for a certain amount of time) modes.
All of the above is highlighted with a cartoony art style, very similar to that of Gotham City Impostors or Team Fortress 2.
