  1. This might be a good example of what some teenager could do with the Unreal engine, a Commodore 64 and 2 sticks of chewing gum, but it's a poor example of a good game.

Although probably not worth the price when it came out, now that you can buy it on steam for less than 5 bucks or part of the entire package for 15 (actually as I right this there is a special for only 2$) it is definatly worth it.

Went into it not expecting much and was not disappointed. Full Review »
