XIII

After Rayman the next title I waited a long time for. After all the Strategy or RPG games on gog.com finally a great shooter.I am glad that this has been released here, because I lost my copy some time ago. Thank you gog for bringing us back the good ol days.

6 of 5 must play. 5 of 5 great story great gameplay. 4 of 5 great story average gameplay. 3 of 5 average story average gameplay. 2 of 5 play only if it's your favorite genre. 1 of 5 play if you have nothing better to do. 0 of 5 play if you're a masochist. -1 of 5 avoid. XIII score is -1 of 5.

An abhorrent piece of bacteria laden putrid wet bull excrements. This game has checkpoint save system which forces you to replay significant parts of a level after failing, and the failing often comes to trial and error in missions where you have to avoid detection. You have to endure all cutscenes (filled with dumb, boring, uninspired parody of a dialogue), all unskippable scripted events (follow a dude slowly for a minute? Why not!) all over again and again after each failed attempt caused by random trial and error mistake. This alone is unforgivable, but paired with absolutely average and boring gameplay, makes this one of the worst FPS/stealth games I've ever played. Absolute piece of unwashed dog diapers. Total garbage. This game deserves to be forgotten and it's developers should be put to shame for making this. I cannot express how mad I am after painfully enduring this piece of feces. Just no.

... baiting with vinegar. If you want us to "agree to receive marketing communication...", you'll have to find a decent bribe. This one is insulting

although the graphics or the distinctive shader and some of the interactive scenes were novel at the time of release, as a shooter the game failed for me. the shooting/movement is not precise enough and the leveldesign and AI lacked in every departement. Still recommended if only for nostalghia and the lack of guts and risktaking in todays shooter landscape.
