Wow...Amazing Story...Wonderful Scenery...Phenomenal
The story is basically the tension between the GDF (Earth) and the Strogg (alliens). This is set into the future, but still seems like a Quake or Doom game.
~Gameplay~
The monsters are just incredible. There are different monsters that fight differently. Some might stay back and defend each other, some might come out into the open and guard their fellow teammates behind them, some might come sprinting at you and just push you back. There are many guns and most of them are familiar, rail gun, pistol, machine gun, etc. There are many vehicles also.
~Story~
This story was built so well. I really don't want to release any spoilers and such, but a lot of the movie scenes are bloody and gory. The voices are quiet though. It's very hard to hear them.
There's one movie scene where an alien is trapped in a closed container and he looks like he's "sleeping". Your friend is standing right next to the container, and the aliens eyes open wide. I was thinking, "Wow. He's gonna die". (Don't want to give out any more spoilers.) The effects of the movie scene blew me away. It actually seemed like a real movie played with real actors.
~Graphics~
Some bodies looked rectangular and not that well done, but I believe that I had my graphics on low quality. The blood was a bit too much. I'm not very sure if people can have that much blood ooze out of themselves so quickly. I really wanted to see detailed shades of the color. It seemed like I only saw the color "dark red".
NOTE~
If you want to play Quake Wars, I strongly recommend that you get this game to know the story of the Strogg and GDF. You will understand QW much better if you know why these two enemies are fighting.
