Great game that offers fast paced action.
This game is something that stood out for me the first time I played it.
First off the game offers great game play that pretty much is aim and shoot, through grenades, get to the check point. The story does keep you going while offering a character change though out different missions. This is a well implemented aspect, but can be a little frustrating, right when you get going with a characture.
There are three character you play and each have there own abilities and weapons. These weapons you are able to up grade by finding parts in the area you are playing, as well s killing aliens. There are only a few areas of upgrade for each character, but each one does change the way weapons feel and damage given.
The graphics are solid and smooth, light effects look great as do explosions. The graphics are showing there age, but fit the game well and delivers were it needs too.
The top down action is great and lets you see the action with few blind points. It offers a change in game play from first person stand point. There are options for the camera that work well.
The game may feel a little short, but replay is there. You will want to go back, play it on a harder level, upgrade different areas, and search for 'secrets'.
Overall I do recommend the game, it offers great gameplay, fast paced action, functional graphics, varied gameplay, all at a budget price
