Description
Alien Breed™ 3: Descent is the final explosive chapter in the Alien Breed™ series, and is a science fiction arcade-shooter with an epic story, swarms of highly intelligent alien enemies, high-impact weapons and stunning environments, developed using Epic Games' Unreal® Engine 3. Descend into hell and once again take control of the hero, Conrad, the ship’s Chief Engineer, in his last stand against the savage alien horde. While the doomed vessel, the Leopold, and the alien space craft plunge deeper into the planet’s atmosphere, with an icy ocean promising a watery grave, you have just hours to defy a grisly death and survive the alien onslaught for the final time. As you struggle deeper into the sinking alien ship, through the freezing waters flooding every corridor, the horrifying truth surrounding the existence of the Breed is finally uncovered…

mediocre TDS with bad camera controls

- repetitive game mechanics: find key card/console/valve to open the next door then repeat this process indefinitely - camera controls is really awful. Sometimes you can not even control it at all and all you really fight with is that controls. - aliens are boring, mostly because they are secondary copy-paste of the Aliens from movies. They spawn on you predictibly, often stuck in environment, just like you are. - this game do not need much resourses, so you can play it on old PC or laptop without dedicated graphics card. During all 3 parts of game i noticed only 2 crashes in one of the final levels, so game is mostly well tested for bugs and totally playable. - graphics is not bad for 13 years old game - comics style story art is nice, I liked it - cinematic sequences with bosses are nice too. Obviously, developers tried to copy-paste Dead Space style cinematic gameplay elements.

As part one should have been

If this was the first part of the trilogy it would be "a flawed but promising start with alot of potential", sadly is the third in the series and the last. It at least gets some milage out of the 3D and has the only decent bossfight out of the 3, and the part with the rising waterlevel is actually quite cool..but if you played them in order and back to back it just gets grating and predictable. Rampart backtracking of the worst kind (the keycard you need will always behind the door that will malfunction), the same ONE action/combat/escape sequence track shared between all three parts, the same "the only reason this part/boss is difficult because the camera is fixed and I can't see shit". Maybe the coop is it's saving grace, but single player you have to force yourself to continue

just more of the same

There's absolutekly no difference in the mechanics of the three games, same old technical issues too, this is basically a game that was chopped off in 3 parts to capitalize en Dead Space's popularity , but is short on everything, the visuals are passable, but the incesant screen shake is nauseous, the music is unispired, and so is the story, etc, I'm not gonna repeat myself, I already went over my opinions on this game on the first two entries.

too much grinding

if you're just playing this game its ok for what it is, but if you've just played the other two this is just grinding its not fun at all, its the same as the other two games but I would think more of a chore if you've played the previous ones. Story is meh
