    Destroy All Humans! is a damn fine B-game from an era when publishers bothered to fund such things. I wish there were more new games taking these bizarre, silly swings at ridiculous ideas with sizable budgets. For now, I guess, remakes from a different time will have to suffice.

    I never got to play the older version because I didn't have much exposure to popular games when I was younger. I only played whatever I couldI never got to play the older version because I didn't have much exposure to popular games when I was younger. I only played whatever I could get my hands on. So being able to play this classic with basically 1:1 remake of the original's content is a refreshing experience for me.

    So I played this game on both Keyboard & Mouse as well as an XBOX One Controller, and I have to say that K&M is the best way to play this. The UFO controls are wonky on controllers. I like to play 3rd person games on a controller because they usually don't require much precision aiming, so that was a bit of a disappointment. There are also challenges in exploration mode that are hard to get a 3-star rating on if you're playing with a controller. That can get annoying very fast. I also wish they had custom save points for missions because if you fail an objective you have to restart the mission most of the time, and sometimes you will be loaded back to a checkpoint but that doesn't help as much as you'd expect. So those are my two issues with this game.

    That being said, the game has so much charm! You can tell this was a passion project. I love the story, characters, humor, and the mindless cartoonish violence. I sincerely hope that THQ greenlights a remake for the sequel. I give this game an 8/10.

    Note: Pay no heed to the inevitable "this game is offensive to my modern sensibilities" people. They will always find something to be offended by even if its decades old. I'm glad that the developers didn't change the game in a detrimental way.
