    Consortium is a tragedy. There’s an extremely clever game to be found within, but only when it works. It’s just the first part of a planned trilogy, and I have so many questions that I won’t be able to help myself, I need to play the second part. But I can only hope that it’s not held together by chewing gum and sellotape again.

    An overly ambitious, tedious, shockingly short game.

I don't knowSure, the product has some problems with the graphics and it's a bit undertone for what regards the menus or the UI, but... but. I don't know why, but I like it.

    Maybe because I have a story and some real charachters in front of me, maybe because I am not having only GRAPHICS to rule the price of the game. I like Consortium. I honestly felt to be myself on the ship, and I forced myself to act as I would in similar situations.

    It's a game not for everyone I fear though. Nowadays everyone wants graphics, loot, violence, action, shooting... this game turns the tide and focus entirely on the story. Damn for the first time after Mass Effect saga I felt that what I decided, no... what I said ! was worth something different in the story arch.

    If you like a game with a story and you want to be part of it , buy it. Otherwise, if you search something action oriented and to not face the consequences of your actions, go elsewhere.

It just blown my mind. If you love true RPG, where your choices really matters, with intriguing story and characters, this game is for you. I've finished this game 5 times now, and on every playthrough i see completely different content. Replayability of this title is insane.

    But, yeah, if you're looking for another generic COD-like stupid shooter - Don't buy it. You'll be disappointed. Not much combat here, and you can talk your way out of any fight if you are smart.

    COD-lovers gonna hate, but i didn't have such fun playing video game since first Deus Ex.

The game actually lets you wield your own influence over the characters and narrative, unlike a certain sci fi trilogy. Full Review »
