  1. Purge, despite not having the best graphics ever, is chock full 'o' fun... If you have the means, than by all means, pick it up. It might be what TFC junkies need to hold them over until the big one arrives.
  2. If you’ve got $30.00 (online play is free by the way) and can handle some old school graphics and sound and deal with some learning pains and aggravation … you’ll probably have fun.

    Purge is an average game and as such there really isn't much of an online community despite the game being out for over a month. It's just not catching on.

    Nearly every game I played (via a cable-modem connection) was hindered by lag issues at some point, and "network disconnects" were common. [July 2003, p.80]

    The actively playing community is practically nonexistent. A sheer lack of modes hurts, a distinctly copying style mars, and some unpolished, "like to get you stuck between two rocks" level design is unacceptable.
  6. Purge still offers gameplay that is fairly unique. Unfortunately, balance issues, poor level design, and a lack of online players keep it from fully realizing its potential.
  7. those looking for the next "Ghost Recon," "Battlefield 1942," or "Half Life" "killer" will be in for a mighty letdown.

    Purge is very fun, especially now they released they expansion pack Purge Jihad. I play it a few hours after work most days to level my characters.
