Its funny to think this is one of the first games i ever played , i thought it was awsome back in the day. Sadley it hasnt aged nearly as well as i would have hoped the camera messes you around so much, you can be killed without seeing your character or what was attacking you. The game is insanely linear, i meen it teases you with little hiding spaces which contain bonuses weapons and health but as you progress there will only be one real weapon you use through out each stage. the clunky movement doesnt help the combat , your supose to be able to use the dodge key but too often i'd come back on to my desktop because i was holding some random hotkeys. The difficulty curve il say is speratic , some of the first few levels are the hardest and later when you get guns and futuristic tech its much easier, all be it at times it goes back to being hard. At one point on the medivial level i got so irratated by some enemys you cant block and cant shoot in time, i found my self turning to cheats just to give me a leg up so i could see the later stages. The enemy ai will at times be docile and stupid and other times overlly aggressive , you cant block some attacks and the ai at times will just wail on you till your dead. overall its okay not as good as remember funny to play it now after all these years, controls a bit hit or miss graphics...hard to judge based on its times not bad but i'd look at some clips somewhere before buying it, so you know what your getting into.
