patches

please tell me but it was still good

Decent budget shooter.
This game runs on the 'Jupiter EX' engine, so it looks and plays a lot like the FEAR series, with all of that game's strengths and weaknesses.

On the PLUS side:
Nice graphics. I certainly enjoyed the settings here a lot more than I did in FEAR. Here you get some time in various settings. The game is stable. Never crashed once on my aging XP system. Weapons look and sound good, and the feel is right. Good firefights, and good level design, given the game engine limitations. Overall it's quite a fun little shooter.

On the MINUS side:
This game is extremely short. Maybe three hours to finish it, tops. Though the environments are varied, there are not that many levels. And because it uses the FEAR game engine, you don't get much time outdoors, although the few outdoor areas are beautiful. All areas seem cramped, mostly due to the use of the Jupiter EX engine, which apparently has trouble rendering large outdoor areas.

OVERALL:
I enjoyed it. My main complaint is its short length. But if you enjoyed FEAR, and want more of that style gameplay, then this will suit you.

Great graphics, but too short!
I was fairly impressed with this game, mainly due to the cost vs. features ratio. For a <$20 game, it's pretty good! I mainly look for FPS games, which is why I tried this one.

The graphics are great, very smooth, and it'll run on just about any standard PC with a halfway decent graphics card. No problems at all during gameplay (loads fast, too!).

My biggest dissapointment was the length (or lack of length) of the game. Before I knew it, the game was over. I was expecting to play this game off and on over Christmas break, but three days after I bought it I was finished.

I had hoped to find another "Far Cry" (and yes, I did buy Far Cry 2, and yes, FC2 is a *big* disappointment in comparison to the original), so I'll keep searching.

I would recommend this game as a "trainer" for someone who has little or no experience with FPS's, but true gamers will be disappointed.
