    It's simply an average two-bit thug. [Aug 2007, p.63]

    Vietnam veteran Joey Verolla is a really, really tough guy who can not only lift two kalashnikovs but also fire them simultaneously. And he does this trick with any other handgun, even SPAS. If it doesn't properly impress his enemies, it's because they are brainless. As is the entire game - despite some interesting mission designs, quite amusing (and gory) finishing sequences and virtually useless ability to seek cover by putting your back to the wall, this shooter is as simple as some precursors of the genre.

    If you are a hardcore action shooter fan, you may be insulted by the total lack of challenge or variation in the gameplay, and if you are not, there is nothing here to attract you to this uninspired generic disappointment. This is one confession that should have stayed within the family.

    The problem's with the lack of inspiration or effort. [Christmas 2006, p.81]

    Utterly horrendous in every conceivable aspect.

    Made Man's combat is as boring as daytime television, and all you do is fight.

    Good to play through about three times then after that it gets a bit tedious. The removal of two points is do to the predictable nature of Good to play through about three times then after that it gets a bit tedious. The removal of two points is do to the predictable nature of your enemies within the game. They get shot and then they don't move. The action really carries you through the game but its game dynamics could of been concentrated on a bit more. Don't let this put you off its enjoyable but just needs a little more work on the dynamics and possibly the modeling.… Expand

But unfortunately it fails in all of these. The story is messed up, the Vietnam sequences were awful and the enemies AI was terrible. Even for a game released in 2007, the graphics were simply too bad. The low-res textures are easily visible. But atleast the gunplay is not broken. Nobody had expectations with Made man, the game was destined to fail anyways :v… Expand

There are new gen games out there. This one is a rip off of its predecessors. The worst thing is that you cannot move your mouse 2 tackle enemies. The lead only moves around 2 shoot others,his arm is fixed with his body like a mummy. This is crap. Don't play it.… Expand

    If your into a game where you have endless killing, going from point A to point B, with essentially no plot, then this game is for you.
