Game Revolution writes: "Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is a World War II game with a twist: What if British Prime Minister Winston Churchill died in a car accident and the Nazi army won World War II as a result? Before you or I can answer with "unspeakable horrors", the introductory text fades away to reveal a lighter outlook: blimps! Rocket-powered blimps! Nazi blimps tearing through the Big Apple like Cloverfield. To learn how this Hollywood-sized spectacle degenerates into a cheeseball Hollywood mess, just keep reading.
Turning Point delivers a few compelling moments, propped up in front of a barely complete game. I can deal with the goofy premise and the B-movie theatrics, but uncomfortable gameplay and dull, repetitive graphics suggest an alternate timeline where Turning Point sits on my shelf, never to be unwrapped."
+ A few good moments
+ A million suplex animations
+ Decent music
- Gets boring fast
- Weak controls
- Sloppy, unsatisfying story
- Average to poor visuals
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 think the Ps3's entire lineup of actual exclusives has vastly improved visually since 2006.
Although there are those who believe that Gears was the end all of FX with the ever AMAZING unreal engine, which to this date produces graphical marvels like Rainbow 6 1.5 and Turok.
