Yes, as you probably picked up by now, this game is famous for killing you - a LOT. Now, most reviews has been presenting this as a good thing, and in many ways it is. You really do invest more emotions in your death... Read Full Review

Running on the Doom 3 engine, and it looks exactly like Doom 3 in fact. It seems like that engine can handle only one type of visual design: Narrow, dark, bumpmapped alien-type scenarios. So, the game left me with a feel... Read Full Review

I liked Duke Nukem 3D, and who didn't? It was one of the first FPS-games that gave the main character some personality, and did not take itself seriously. Quite refreshing, when it was released like a million years ago. ... Read Full Review

After seeing the 6.5 review from Gamespot I was reluctant to buy this game, even though I like RTS games. I thought it would be another over hyped flop trying to cash in on a famous brand. Luckily it turns out the gam... Read Full Review

Great story driven game, no skills required. Excellent choice for new gamers.
