    One of the worst real-time strategy games I’ve ever played.

    Superior graphics...but its poor interface, repetitious campaign modes and unchallenging AI has relegated it to just another also-ran.

    That is the real problem with Dark Planet, it doesn’t do anything that might keep me interested in playing it (and with over 40 missions it should be trying to).

    A prime example of how amazing graphics can't make up for lackluster gameplay.
