Halo Effect: Combat Evolva

A cheesy, colourful, sllck, sci-fi/action epic.. think a third-person Halo crossed with a stripped-down Mass Effect - this game was obviously inspired by the former in many of its designs, gameplay and vehicles, and I think it may have heavily inspired the latter in its story, themes and character powers. Also, there's visual stuff that reminds me of Evolva in there too. Anyway, lots of frenetic fun to be had, some nice music, great creature designs and beauitful vast vistas to behold - for a 10 year old game I think the graphics have held up quite well due to the texturing being quite subtle and smooth, and the style being very cartoonish. Unfortunately, the game is marred by some really annoying bugs, involving a dozen or so CTDs in my playthrough, and some finnickety keyboard controls. Also, the boss fights are very, very tough, even on easy. And the most annoying thing is this was the first in a trilogy that never got any sequels. A shame, because I quite enjoyed this and would like to see more. Well worth the asking price.

Surprisingly fun, very underrated

I bought this game on a whim when it came out years back. (The cover art was cool :); But I was really satisfied with the game. The storyline for the game is really interesting and it takes you through a few twists as you play. The character you play as gets special powers that add a unique dynamic to the game play. At one point in the game I stopped using weapons and relied entirely on my powers! The graphics are pleasing, even though they weren't the best at its release. Cinematic graphics are highly impressive and the voice acting is really well done. The musical score for the game is incredible. So many of the songs are highly emotional and lend itself to the current scene incredibly well. I teared up a few times playing because of the music and the scene that was going on. Many people never knew about this game which is really unfortunate. There was a planned trilogy that we'll never see anymore. Like many games first impressions really help sell the game. I just don't think people gave it enough of a chance because the beginning of the game throws you into the action within 10 minutes. If I didn't already own the game I would definitely buy it off of GoG. (Well, I may still do it for the free extras).

A shame, but fun...

5.99 is an excellent price for this really fun experience. The physics feel like Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Not as fun as The Force Unleashed, but still really fun. It has a lot of content, requiring some time to complete. You can wield guns, you can use melee, and as you progress through the game, you obtain psionic abilities. You can duel wield any weapon in the game, making the bulkier missile launchers look a little funny when duel wielded. The graphics arn't anything special, but they serve their purpose. I guess you could say that they're pretty good for GOG.com. The story is pretty good. Can't compete with a lot of stories out there. As I said before, this game is really long, and requires a lot of game time to complete. The story is really long but ends quite suddenly, leaving you with a "What was the point?" type feeling, after all, this game was meant to be in part of a trilogy. All in all though, this game is very enjoyable, cheap, packs a lot of content, and the story that it does contain is pretty good. I recommend it for those willing to spend a few bucks for a few hours of game time.

I would not have felt so ripped off if I had paid under 2 bucks for this game when it first came out.
