Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior

It's a little lacklustre and I keep remembering the "Who needs Halo?" thing as I play, but it's fun and, at times, funny. It's nice seeing what they were trying to do at the time and, even though it doesn't necessarily play as nice as even older games, it's serviceable. I do find it funny that it tries to keep you miss and hit shots statistics with the level of spread, it's confusing noticing I got a key I didn't even see several times in a roll, and it was genuinely cool seeing a general fall victim to artillery in front of me. Even the little rubble fakeouts show that there were people trying. If you come knowing it's an old game, which was old for its time, and very much a port, you can still take something away from it I'm not the biggest t'au fan, but I've been enjoying a few books. I'll read the comic and then try to find the novelisation of this game eventually. This game is giving me some enjoyment out of the Blue Men. It kinda makes me want a Space Marine 1/2 or a Boltgun sort of game to come out for the t'au. Hell... I've been missing cover shooters — would be nice having a throwback with the youngest race in the galaxy.

pretty cool game. love the silly animations.

The title is correctly worded. The game, besides being made for PC, it was made for PS2. It is a rollercoaster ride for Warhammer fans, but it is not so well done in some testing/QA departments. Sound design is repetitive and annoying sometimes, and it makes the game not age well. But if you play it like a multiplatform game released in 2003(same year of Max Payne 2, NFS Underground, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time), you'll understand it's limitations. In regards to the lore, having Tau as characters seems odd for me as a Warhammer fan in a videogame, given that they are not seen much as the face of the game. Compared to Space Marines, Orks, Eldar and Chaos, for example. But having them as "good guy" characters made sense in the plot. Overall, a fine game if you are a Warhammer fan and collector, skippable if you are not interested in traditional hard FPSs.

Great early 2000s shooter (aiming isn't great but you get used to it).

Not the best of the best but it was something ! i played it alot as a kid and its a fun game :D
