The explosive return of ludicrous gibs!

Rise of the Triad, a very modern take on classic ultra-violent FPS gameplay, filled to the brim with over-the-top humor and gore, and offering hours upon hours of fast-paced crazy action in single and multi-player mode, is available on GOG.com for only $14.99.

After nearly two decades one of the most memorable first-person shooters returns with a blood-dripping, gib-blasting, gun-slinging, rocket-spamming vengeance! The ominous organization known as "The Triad" is plotting to take over the world by force, terror, and apparent nazi symbolism. Is up to the agents of H.U.N.T.--High-risk United Nations Task-force--to stop the evildoers once and for all, preferably by splattering them all over their (not so) secret base walls. Be warned, there are even darker forces at play, here, as the Triad is known to dabble in the occult and demonic worship, as a way of reaching for power to obtain their evil goals. Oh, and it has a dog-mode.

Rise of the Triad: Modern K9 Warfare trailer

Rise of the Triad brings back everything we loved about the first-person shooters of the 1990s. Swarms of enemies, no hand-holding, awesome guns, badass one-liners, a pretense story, and ridiculous amounts of virtual guts flying all over the place--all checked and accounted for. Apart from a diverse and challenging single-player campaign, that pays a tribute to the game's predecessor, the new Rise of the Triad offers many multi-player game modes (the game supports its own DRM-free server network). The game's fully moddable and a robust creative tool comes with every copy, so you can extend your experience indefinitely. All that, for a fraction of the price of most modern FPS games of comparable scale!

We promise, nothing can make a classic FPS fan feel as good as spamming lead at the minions of evil and watching their insides painting the walls red in Rise of the Triad, for only $14.99 on GOG.com

Well, it's bloody amazing. Bloody being used to help emphasise how good it is, but also because it's joyously violent. Loving it so far. Ridiculous that it's only $15 for what you get. Great job, guys.

I feel like a kid at Christmas, I had trouble falling asleep last night and woke up at 4:30 this morning, took me nearly an hour to get back to sleep.
Soooo anyone going to be up for some multi in about an hour or so? :D
Awesome release for GOG. I hope the game is a success!

Phaidox: Any (early, obviously) impressions to share?
I have only tested it, but it sure feels like Rise of the Triad, and not just a shitty game named after a classic.
I love modern remakes of classics.

The God Mode is just like the original complete with the yawning sound and all :D.

I haven't found the power-up that does Shroom Mode nor have I yet managed to find the Excalibat or Dog Mode :D
LOOOOL, when you die the radio guy occasionally says "I think you should stick to using a game controller"
Quite gory :). Rather good game. Looks like only 5 test servers for multiplayer is up atm
The game has some bugs though, like if you open a door/gate and an enemy sees you, but then run backwards and it closes, the enemies just "stick" to the gate and you can see their hands clipping through it.

Also when an enemy does the "no please" on his knees occasionally he shoots at you (yes with no gun in his hand, so the muzzle flash looks like it's coming out of his head)
Holly shit...over 5.7 GB....
arghh can't dl it till end of next month
