Frantic Syndicate-style squad combat done just right!
User Rating: 8.9 | Abomination PC
To me, Abomination offers a lot of the things which I want from a squad based game; a suitably twisted and interesting storyline, tense missions, especially at the insertion point, lots of weapons and gear to play around with, and an interface that once you're used to it will let you move your team about swiftly. Team members can have their skills enhanced which also shows in the game. You can even rename them, which is a nice touch. The Syndicate-style fixed viewpoint feels a bit oldschool but it gets the job done, and the attention to details in the background including some destructible features allow for some increased immersion into the environment.
Levels are randomly created from a set of templates and even though they all play out more or less the same, it still doesn't hurt the replayability. Compare it to going for a skirmish game in an RTS, or a clickfest in Diablo if you will. And it is always satisfying to have your squad set up a kill zone with prone snipers on rooftops backed up by automated heavy weaponry, only to lure the hapful enemies into the mayhem. It will be quite some time until I stop going back to this game.
