    Hold your nose through the boring first 2 or 3 missions and find out that you have bought a game that has the fear factor of AVP2, the strategy of Delta Force and the quality friendly/enemy AI of Half-Life. Yes, the graphics leave somewhat to be be desired, but if your one of the many that say it's the gameplay that counts, then Codename: Outbreak has that in spades!

    An unique setting of this game keeps you playing it to the end.
    Back then game had a ok visuals and outstanding atmosphere.
    Not a masterpiece, but decent one.

    Codename: Outbreak is a weird game. For the first hours, this FPS is highly addictive. The mix between shooter, stealth and RPG convinced me. The futuristic story is innovative too. After some hours everything becomes very repetitive and frustrating. Always a matter of taste.

    This is where it all started for GSC game world. A forgotten Sci-fi FPS worth playing. It isn't a mindless shooter. It was an advanced game for its time. It's strategic and challenging. Visually stunning too.

    It's not perfect, when the different styles fail to gel the game can become frustrating, however when it does, it offers one of the best FPS experiences around.

    Our expectations have been comprehensively destroyed by what is a truly mediocre title. Save the world from a race of parasitic aliens? We'd rather have a nice cup of tea, thanks all the same.

    In all honesty just another military fps/team based game.
