AREA 51 AND BEYOND...

I remember when this game came out, I had just read the Matthew Reilly novel "Area 7", and just wanted to jump into some similar action described in the book. Although Reillys book didn't deal with aliens, the game did, and it was something I felt was a pretty OK topic, considering it's implications, Area 51 in the US, should not deal with anything else.

What did I get?

A smooth game with some nice graphics and cool leveldesign. There where some Half-Life2 moments, but for the most part it was fun. I enjoyed the fake moon-landing studio and the spectacular end. And everytime I see the DVD-box at the store I want to buy it to play it again, but I resist, there are plenty of good games out there, better to have a nice memory of it instead...

+ Graphics...
+ Easy gameplay...
+ Perfect for PC...

- Could have been longer...
- Some character flaws...
- Repetitive monsters...

It's a fun game, please try it...
