Soundtrack Perfection

It's hard, and sometimes not for the best reasons, but it's still fun and cool as hell. If nothing else, the soundtrack keeps bringing me back. The music in this game is incredible. The game itself is like Metroid meets Doom, and it is a thing of beauty.

Intergreedy strikes again

F this, I´m giving one star this time...Raising the price by 100% once again out of nowhere...Guess what, it can´t even be "justified" by being in the Preservation Program...Absolute dogshit...I feel sorry for who actually likes the 8dof genre.
