    The worse is the sound, even with EAX!

    Probably the worst game I have ever played in my life. Poor grpahics, gameplay. In fact there is absolutely nothing good about it. Dont even waste your time if someone offered it to you for free.

    Crap graphics requiring the latest super compter. I can run doom3, halflife, BF2 with no problems and at a high setting, but this has to run at 640 x 480, I mean the the last time I ran at that res was in doom 1 days... Loads like a pig, plays like a pig maybe it is a pig. do not buy this game... Mine will be on ebay if you want it :)

    I did my best (and still am persevering) on getting through this game. Problem is .. there isnt that much to like here. Voice over is poor, story is fragmented, badly told and unbelievable (even if things like this existed) and graphics look a bit dated (although the water effects are nice and weapon feel/animation was ok) Level design was overall, good - but as with everything here it I did my best (and still am persevering) on getting through this game.

If money isnt a problem and you feel like a blast, this "will do". But there are so many others out there that kick its ass.… Expand

    Graphics are on par with Quake2, AI is as retarded as Doom3 or PacMan, and the physics and controls are absolutely horrid. Stay well away from this title.

    This game is by far retarded. The player jumping abilitiy is anemic, the loading time aweful and overall playability very poor. Do not buy this game...

    For some reason my EB was selling this, so I purchased it out of curiosity. HORRIBLE GAME!! Terribly unbalanced. Melee weapons are stronger than firearms, A.I is retarted, graphics at best are mediocre. Save your hard earned pennies for something better.

    I really tried to get into it, but this game is no good, it plays like an old skool fps(dukeNukem/doom etc), without any of the merits of those games. The gameplay is tedious, lacking tension or frights, the voice overs are poor, the story is weak. The graphics were okay, physics poor. I could go on but you get the idea.

    The AI is the worst, they run at you in a straight line, and get stuck if you step behind a wall. Game has been pretty boring so far. Object physics are ok, but player physics are crap, jumping seems so lame, and strafe / walk back are much slower than forward which fucks up my style of play where i like to duck and run.

    Game crashes about every half-hour, which is quite a blessing as you have usually had enough by then! Loading time is abomination considering graphics are outdated and the levels simplistic. The weapons are lacklustre.

    I got it for free from someone else (obviously another person that did not think too highly of it, or too kindly of me for that matter). I installed it, and started it. It took the painfully badly concocted intro longer to finish playing than for me to uninstall this sad, sad abomination. Generic arsenal, non-attractive graphics, terrible narrative and rusty controls.

    This is one of the crappiest games I have ever played, periode. Don't let the screenshots fool you. It looks good on the pictures, but it's like a mid 90's fps with suit and a tie. trust me. Don't buy it. I gave it a 1 because it was possibe to use the mouse to look around.

    I've reviewed some games that have made my balls ache in my time, but this one takes the biscuit of dull pain. Fundamentally abominable! [PC Zone]
