For only $15 it's a good romp through the future.

As I got going with this game it took some time to get used to adding power-ups and deciding how to attack the different demons and odd creatures that abound in this game. It reminds me of Serious Sam but without his serious weapons. I have found that the game tends to lock up when you're in a major battle with a slew of your enemy monsters swarming around you, or at least when you play as a sword wielding Templer. All the side quests seem to have been placed so you can get through them as you make your way to the main quests objective.

The graphics are pretty intense especially when you're in a fierce battle. I've had a lot of trouble with the game crashing after playing for just a few hours. Another minus is there's no way to save your game unless you're at one of the major bases. If you don't stop the game in one of them you'll find yourself fighting your way back to your main objective. In some ways that's a good thing because you can continue to level up which helps you get to the better weapons and armor.

Over all it's like a crazed FPS only you have several blades to choose from in fact there's even one that reminds me of the Light Saber from Star Wars.
