    Yeah, it's an ok game. Don't let the nostalgia blind you. It gets repetitive rather fast, and the levels are not as great as those in Duke Nukem 3D. The weapons are awesome, but Lo Wang isn't as funny and he doesn't have as many lines as Duke. Still, I would recommend it to anyone interested in older FPSs. It is still a classic from 1997, and I prefer it over any modern military shooterYeah, it's an ok game. Don't let the nostalgia blind you.

It is still a classic from 1997, and I prefer it over any modern military shooter -with the possible exception of Battlefield, that I found really addictive.

    I bought this from GOG as "classic complete" (with expansions), but with today standards, the controls are so annoying to me, I deleted.

    The weapons and atmosphere obviously made a real difference in comparison to other games of that era. I don't really remember the quality of the music and sounds though, I can't rate them.

    If you want to discover old games, you can give it a try, bargain price at GOG.    … Expand

    The game was one of the last great 2.5D games ever released before 3D took over. The gameplay is very great, the graphics were ok, the interactivity is great as expected, the guns are good to use, the character himself is a Japanese parody and is a little weak compared to the character of Blood or Duke Nukem. Overall great game
