Rogue Trooper is Eidos Tomb Raider of 3rd person shooters,awsome!,packed of action and refreshing,quick must know about.
You are rogue trooper,on Nu-earth planet,a placed trapped somewhere inside a black hole,it was a paradise before,but now is a living hell created by weapons of mass destruction,with deadly armies of nort and gi's fighting for domination,the norts are the bad guys,the troopers are the good ones.
Since the beginning you'll jump into the battlefield to face hordes of nords with fully armed weapons(not very responsible though),dumb but deadly guys,watch out!you have to make your way through many obstacles,big weapons and wild fauna,together with this sticky norts (sailors,infantry,sargents,mobile-suit equipped,etc),with many different objectives,gadgets,several kinds of weapons,stealth,slide,shoot behind cover -cool moves.Nu-Earth is your home(Gi's)and you have to gain it back!
You will have besides the weapons certain kinds of grenades and explosives that you can aim,throw,use as traps,disable electronic and electric devices,very useful,and my advice,save them.
you have a special skills menu accessible with the triangle bottom,which will be your best defence against multiple enemies,will also provide with distraction and silence,stealth killings is also a good way to earn salvage,very important to unlock cool features,weapons and upgrades,this point items can also be collectible from fallen enemies and allies,so don't leave them behind,on every body there's a hidden secret,there's also some collectibles on wasted parts or bodies somewhere on the game well hide,so look for them.
your health will be generated onto a limit,pass this limit reaches it's dead line and i think you will find safer to use a medpack,also fabricated with your collected items at discretion.
every single item that you collect or fabricate is upgradable,so again,Collect!
your wall covered shooting is something like the big big brother of gears of arms,you can shoot from behind walls or surfaces,and you can even have the choice to blind shoot enemies forcing them to get scared and look for cover(even this mode you can try to aim quickly + provide additional damage).
you will collect your special moves from three of your friends who died heroically,they will integrate as three special bioships allowing you to aim more perfectly(automatic),deploy your assault weapon with a tripod-motion detector to automatic render to dust your foes,and the very good looking and distractive hologram to full the norts and take them down before they realize george lucas is in town.
now,i always like to keep it simple,and to summarize,the gameplay is amazingly well constructed,detailed and pretty good frame rate speed almost full time which delivers smooth graphics and strong environment effects and surroundings,the voice acting is great,and your chips will talk very nicely and help you through your every step to glory.the sound is also satisfying,though not the best of this game,is really addictive,quite easy and a lot fun,with a great constructed story line,even good for the big screen.i strongly recommend this game for all third person shooters lovers like me around,see ya and ....
Kawabonga!
