This is a perfect little game to play when you've had a stressful day, just want to fire up an action oriented game and blast away, no thinking required. As others have mentioned the graphics aren't the greatest, but that really doesn't matter. Gunning down hordes of more aliens than you could possibly hope to survive, and somehow surviving anyway is awesome! This is a really great game for the price. Some cons (and they are minor, given the price of the game) the voice actors can sometimes be sub-par, especially compared to what you'd get in a triple-A title. The path finding / AI for the monsters needs to be tweaked. Aliens will often get stuck on an obstacle, not knowing how to simply go around it, while you gleefully mow them down. Also, the player character does the same thing. You have to explicitly guide him around every obstacle. The pathfinding isn't good enough him to avoid anything on his own. All in all, though, this is a fun little game. You'll quickly forget the graphics (and just about everything else) once you have your first serious rush, and have enough firepower to blow everything away!
