    There's a peculiar lack of in-game music that, when paired with the spartan sound effects, makes the game feel lifeless.

    The story is much the same as the game itself, and while there are moments when it seems it could be picking up, it shoots itself in the foot. Normal enemies that take full clips to dispatch, 'puzzles' that make Doom look like a brainteaser... the potholes are all too common and apparent. [Nov 2003, p.127]

    This game is great. Good graphics, great gameplay, awsome story. My only problem is that it is too short and easy. If you thought this game This game is great. Good graphics, great gameplay, awsome story. My only problem is that it is too short and easy. If you thought this game was too hard you must really suck. The save system didnt bother me since I flew through the game. There are cheats for you who think that there arent, you just have to beat the game on hard and get high stats for some of the cheats. Im also a warhammer 40k player and I play Tau. P.S. I would like to see a battle field version of warhammer 40k. Full Review »

It's quite nicely done however and with voice talent that includes both Tom Baker and Brian Blessed you can't go wrong. Full Review »
