Every game cliche rolled into one.

Dinosaurs, cowboys, mad scientists, tanks, robots, aliens, and large breasted women have been some of the biggest hits in entertainment. Here's one game that tries to combine all of the above into one package based on Half-Life. Granted, there was only one large breasted woman, but there's plenty of the rest. A bit too much of the rest to the point that it detracts from the realism. Cowboys and dinos in space?

I had fun with the game and it was a temporary fix for Half-Life style gaming, but it just doesn't have the same magic that the original Half-Life has. I also found the weapons control system changes annoying.
