Highly annoying auto-save breaks the game. Nice graphic designs dont make up for all of the game's faults

The GS review is pretty accurate except for a few things: The save system is not mentioned and it is quite annoying. There are automatic save points but it isn't always clear when the game is saving. So it also isn't clear where you will restart from until you die. Having to replay parts that you already won isn't fun. On the other hand, the graphics deserve some sort of award. The real-time shadows and light-sourcing is really, really good. And hi-res textures are used just about everywhere. Some of the levels are orginal (like walking through a Titan fortess made for giants). But the game design is so flawed, it is impossible to reccommend this game. You will fight against the targeting system. It is your worst enemy. I got it used for a few bucks and it was worth no more than that.
