"If it moves kill it"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is a great game. Pure mindless fun imo. Its nice to have a game where you just shoot the oncoming assault of enemies without needing to find keys etc. If you like games like Quake and Doom but felt those needed a graphical makeover…then this is the game for you. Checkpoints appear to let you know where to go as well which is nice. Theres also the ability to change into a demon when you collect enough souls and it makes you see enemies as if you were Predator and using his vision. All in a ll for the price…this is a great game with mindless gameplay and great graphics. Sound is pretty good as well.

Why compare games?

This is an awesome game, and I enjoy the mindless fun (slight pun intended). It is a great game, it makes me think of an rpg game in fps mode. It's graphically stunning, and has the atmosphere without going overboard.

Compare it to doom, unreal. whatever. but it's different. It's cool to be different, if this is different.

It may have taken 3years for me to get around to playing this game, but i'm glad I waited. There's so much dribble in games today that it's nice to be able to just enjoy a game once in a while.

Basically Doom 1, only better-looking and with less puzzle-solving. Prepare to disengage your brain. Compared to this, Unreal Tournament – or even Doom – is a masterpiece of intellectual finesse, sophistication, and subtlety.

This baby lasted a whole day on my hard drive, but that's only because I wanted to give it a second chance in the morning.

"Incredible"
5 stars"

This game is amazing. Very very nice graphics. Same physics engine as halflife etc.

No fagging about in this game, all on action, Amazing environments.

Rivals Doom3 in graphics, but better. Huge open environments. Its what Doom 3 should have been(to remain faithfull to Doom 2 theme).
