Playing this game in Nightmare or Trauma mode is a real chalange and need a little bit tactics so you can stay alive, or else you'r dead meat i guess.

You people are ******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why does everyone say that this game is only shooting all the time??? It has so much to it! It has awesome design in enemies and levels, gigantic bosses, and awesome music!(ambience music). The shooting all the time is the less important feature!

It looks like a modern day DOOM cause you run fast and have huge strides just like DOOM and the guns are really powerful

As he said this is if you like games like quake and doom but tbh if you're not from that era and/or just can't be bothered with mindless shooting this is not going to be fun all the way through. Some of the levels can be scary but it grows old very fast if you don't care much for the gameplay. Also props for a great review!

F%@k the plot, and there is no point.This is an old school (wolfenstein/doom ) FPS with better graphics. And a new expansion pack is on the way. ASS KICKING INDEED

Looks real good but I think it lacks a plot and perhaps some depth. Or maybe that was the point of the game just straightforward ass kicking

Though it was showed, he never made mention of the gun that shoots shurikens and lightning. :\
