A stunningly realistic action game
21 July 2001 | by MovieAddict2016See all my reviews

Forget all the other games you've played, because this, is a real game. A game that puts you in a war to dominate above all other players. A game, to let you win trophys. A game, for winners. This Computer realistic action game reminds me of the game "aliens versus predator", it's stunningly realistic, and you can almost taste victory when you're playing. The graphics are wonderful, in one particular level you are in space, and the earth rotates before you, and it's so real looking it's hard to explain.

The plot of the game is, in the somewhat near future, violence has become illegal, but to provide the same excitement of fighting for people, the government provides a game show, where there are teams of players who compete in enclosed surroundings, to kill everyone and be the last player. There are different modes of play, one is deathmatch(kill everyone and be the last standing) Capture the flag(basic capture the flag game) and some more like that. It reminds me of the movie"Running Man" with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and I have enjoyed this game so far, very much. Give it a try, and I promise you won't be let down. 9 out of 10 stars(4 out of 5)
