My Steam review:
While I do recommend this game, it comes with some stipulations:
1. It must be $5 or less.
2. You must LOVE FPS games.
3. You must understand while the game itself is meh to ok, you're really coming to laugh at the story and dialogue.
You know those films where the dialog and acting are so bad, it becomes entertaining in a funny way? This is the video game version of that.
Summing up the game play:
-The levels are designed well enough and varied, but VERY linear and there's a very noticeable lack of detail at times.
-Enemies aren't varied at all. It's all enemy soldiers and three versions of robots.
-Standard weapons: Pistol, Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, Machine gun, Rocket Launcher, grenades, etc.
-The enemy AI goes from being completely unaware that you're standing in front of them to being able to see your movement through walls and rock.
-Don't waste health because the enemy doesn't miss. Ever. Ok, the guys with the rocket launchers will miss, and the shotgun weilding baddies lack range, but the guys firing pistols and machine guns will always hit you.
-A Max Payne bullet time like system that felt like it wasn't fleshed out. It can help even out the bigger fights agains the enemies who don't miss.
-A driving section that comes out of nowhere with poor driving physics.
-A hacking skill that seems like an after thought, and could have been used more effectively.
The game itself would be kind of bland without the amazingly bad dialogue and voice acting. Don't worry, you'll get the jist of the story. It's just that you're playing a Sci-Fi game with dialogue that's like it's from a bad 1930s crime novel. On top of that, it's read by people who got bad scripts or don't understand punctuation. I'll grant you something might have been lost in translation, but those English voice actors should have known better.
Again, if those three stipulations are things you can deal with, pick it up. If not, you should skip this game.
Now for you DTMers, I cannot stress enough just how terrible the voice acting and dialogue are in this game.
Malcolm, this is one you should pick up so we can read your ranting review.

Were they trying to fuck up or was it unintentional?
