And, if nothing else, danger truly defines the lot of a Bounty Hunter; it truly feels as if the environment is somehow calculating your defeat (or insurgence).

A perfectly competent single-player shooter with neat space-sim elements (and Henry Rollins!), but if you absolutely need multiplayer replayability, look elsewhere. [Aug 2003, p.77]

Movement from left to right is way too slow, which screws up everything. It takes three full seconds to turn 180 degrees, so death is guaranteed in cramped quarters. [Aug 2003, p.85]

I actually quite like this game. It's got decent graphics, an okay storyline, and pretty awesome gameplay. This game is kinda like Halo, but it takes place in space. It's a first person shooter and space combat game from the creators of Star Trek Invasion & Battlestar Galactica (Warthog Games). If you enjoyed Battlestar Galactica the Game or Star Trek Invasion, then I suggest you try this game out in the future. The only two problems I had with this game is that it gets ridiculously hard later on and the soundtrack is pretty mediocre.

This game is perfectly fine as a solo game. Not every FPS in the world needs to be Co-Op.

The storyline may be a reworking of a stock plot, but somehow feels fresh against this background.

Despite being a rough composite of a half dozen other first-person shooters without much personality of its own, Mace Griffin Bounty Hunter is still pretty good.
63
Fun at times (especially in the first few hours before the minor annoyances begin stacking up) and does a nice job of mixing up run and gun and sniper action, but the AI is buggy and sometimes the game absolutely drags.
60
The space-flying gimmick surely doesn’t warrant a purchase on its own. This should’ve been a very decent shoot-‘em-up. What happened?
50
More attention needs to be placed on the space aspect of the game, and players should have the same sense of freedom as in titles like Halo instead of wandering through narrow halls.
40
Disposable amusement; if you want to experience an immediate, reassuringly predictable FPS then you may find elements to enjoy here.
