Now I won't lie to you, I'm not entirely sure what the name is of this boss you encounter in the gloriously silly and over-the-top shooter Bloody Wolf, but it seems that general consensus is amongst the few who have played this is that this guy is called "The Knife Punk" or as we shall now call him "Tesco Brand Wolverine". I bet you're thinking to yourself "well we're off to a good start when you can't even find out what the boss is called", but trust me you want to hear about this fella, and why's that?

Well A, because he absolutely sucks as a boss battle, and B, because he literally brings a knife to a gunfight.

Now Bloody Wolf is a game that falls into the "Metal Gear" mentality, in that it takes itself way too seriously while at the same time being utterly drenched in "the silly".

From enemies that die like they're in a school play, to others that will shoot everything around them but refuse to move a single inch towards you, all the way through to the fact that when you complete the game, the pair of heroes refuse to go on another mission because it's time to party, Bloody Wolf is just a slice of weird and wonderful.

Yet when it comes to Lidl Logan over here, things fall off the deep end, because when he rocks up to battle you the first time around, you are stripped of your guns and have to battle him with your combat knife, making for a pretty engaging battle.

However when he shows up again for the rematch, for some reason the game doesn't apply this restriction so you're free to shoot him in the face and down him in seconds. Seriously he won't even get close to you this time around making him into an absolute laughing stock in a game chock full of weird moments.
