    A dull, but undeniably unique sci-fi shooter for the PS2. Pros: Hilarious; varied stages to play through and lots of weapons to play with. Cons: After awhile, it's frustratingly repetitive; overall, visually unimpressive.

    I think this game has a very interesting concept and I love that they incorporate comedy into it as well. More upgrades would have been better for the Saucer or more guns on Crypto. There are only 5 enemy classes which isn't bad just could have been more. The other thing im critical about is the anal probe. Definitely should have allowed you to upgrade that so you can extract brainsI think this game has a very interesting concept and I love that they incorporate comedy into it as well.

The best part about this game is simply running around doing what you want. Expand

    The game does not hold up well at all today. Extremely repetitive. Have to grind for hours to get all upgrades. Air controls are terrible and floaty. Very limited visibility in the ship. Still a great campy self aware story but everything else in this game hold it back from being amazing. Hoping the remake is going to be great.

    The game is practically false advertising.This game is a bonkers, mad, chaotic, amazing and insane but it does have flaws. The stealth levels (especially LEVEL 10) are extremely flawed, the gaurds are all over the place, the disguise energy runs out too quickly and the game gives you no hints and gives to many over the top powers.

    Destroy All Humans! is a successful mix of 3d-action, free roaming game play, conspiracy theories and sci-fi silliness. It has no apparent flaws but there’s still something missing from the mission design and the game as a whole. It promises a bit more than it manages to deliver. [June 2005, p.64]

    No aspect of life remains unscathed, from sexual repression and homophobia to government conspiracy and rampant paranoia. And it's funny. Very funny. [July 2005, p.114]

    Bottom line: being an alien is fun, even if it is a bit rough around the edges. [July 2005, p.76]
