The atmosphere and feeling here is great, but it's ruined by some pretty terrible graphics. The screenshots for the game didn't look that bad, but in action everything looks very unimpressive, such as the awful textures. The character animations also look very stiff and unrealistic, for the most part.
However, those previous gripes are small potatoes when compared to the game's absolutely atrocious shooting. Enemies show no signs of flinching or anything while being shot and it isn't until you see the death animation that you know you've been making any progress. The AI is decent. Some enemies will run at you and make no attempt to hide, but plenty will run for cover and some will even blind fire.
There is definite potential here, but it's completely buried underneath the poor graphics and flawed shooting.
It’s time to wander through the Game Graveyard. A haunting, foggy location in which overlooked and forgotten video games rot under the murky surface of the earth. Unmarked tombstones litter the landscape and the tears of developers that once floated upon the air are now just dissonant wails in the distance.
Not all First Person Shooters will go do in history as a legend. What about the shooters that didn’t quite hit the mark? The hidden gems or the forgotten ‘next big thing’ which didn’t even turn out to be a small thing? Or perhaps the first-person shooter that was so damned awful that everybody tried to forget it exists?
HAZE = LMAO
Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason = This was a nice game. The water Physics, over all physics, and eye candy were TOP NOTCH thus the high system requirements. Nice pick up for those who couldn't run it on Ultra back in the day.
Project: Snowblind was a pretty awesome game that never got the love it deserved.
Oh, come on... Some of these are good. XIII, Cryostasis, and NOLF are my favorites on here. Nobody forgot NOLF though. Huge fan base for the two original titles!
But then we see Haze and Legendary. Seriously? Legendary is horrible! No gamer would say otherwise. It's just trash.
Shawn Long of GAMINGtruth.com takes a look at yet another game that had potential to be great, but just fell flat on it's face.
I remember being excited before booting up this game's demo. I had hoped, like you, that the creators would live up to the story. Sadly, it just didn't happen.
Man, when this came out, I was dying for it to be awesome!
Sadly, that wasn't the case. Great article!
I've lost interest in this because I can't play as the Nazi's. Thanks for ruining everything whoever made this game.
This game just completely drop off the radar and then suddenly just pops up back again expecting gamers to be excited about it then many other great games are coming. No thanks, I will just pass on this one. But I do like the art style of this game
At first, the script sounded awsome!! but ... they didnt manage to pull it off
They should have never put it out.
This game is pretty bad
