    A gamecube and ghost version of Broken Helix. Broken Helix was a great PS1 gem involving branching story lines and aliens. Depending on what path you take, you even become a Alien, killing things left and right.

    Anyways, Geist reminds me of that game through puzzles, combat, and overall layout. However, it is 2023, game needs a serious remake. A person could easily argue for a 3 out of

    El primer juego para mayores de 18 que tuve. Mirándolo hoy en día no es el shooter de la decada, pero recuerdo que tenía un sistema de juego bastante original. La historia era bastante entretenida y tenía un multijugador convincente. Gráficamente correcto, sin mas. Tenía jefes finales algo complicados. Un buen juego.

    This tongue-in-cheek attitude won't hamper the experience, mind you; it just serves to further distinguish Geist from the competition.

    I would love to be sitting here writing about how great this unique game is, but after creating such a cool concept the developers let the rest go and forgot to add the things that truly make a shooter great, like good AI, freedom of approach and a gripping story that progresses in interesting ways.

    If you are willing to forgive some of the niggles with the engine, then underneath lurks a program full of idea, invention, wit and life (although the motorcycle section seems somewhat out of place).
