Advent Rising is one of those games you enjoy playing so much, that even when it annoys you to tears you still think it's great. The thing that really impresses me most about this game is the movement and action. If you're a UT player you'll already be used to the dodging movement, and being able to lock onto an enemy and slow-mo headshot him while doing a cartwheel looks cool no matter how many times you do it. It's let down in a few areas by some stupid design moves. Enemies respawning constantly can cause some major annoyances in some areas as they flood through a doorway you're supposed to get through. The story is let down a bit at the beginning, it was set up a little too hastily: "Oh we found you, but oops Aliens now know where you are and want to kill you." These are pretty much the only reason it didn't get a 5star. This is probably the most fun I've had with a game in a long time; you have to play this.
