I was surprised... I wanted to play a top-down shooter, and I ended up coming across this older one on sale. If you don't take into account the dated graphics from the PS2/Gamecube era, the game is fun. The plot won't surprise anyone: it's a mix of Alien and Independence Day. Although more focused on action, the atmosphere is suspenseful and a little "gore". The gameplay and soundtrack are good overall. The dubbing isn't great (sometimes the characters' lips become out of synchronization with the audio), and the characters themselves are little or not at all charismatic (with emphasis on the main thing).

Very good game. I enjoyed playing this game a lot. I strongly recommend this.

Jeu moyen, déplacements pas intuitifs et manette non prise en charge = note moyenne

C’est une sorte de Diablol mais avec moins de clics dedans et qui se déroule dans un univers de science-fiction au lieu de la fantasy de supermarché des Diablol ! mais ça ne pisse pas bien loin non plus puisque c’est basiquement et bassement inspiré des Aliens… en version clairement basse du front ici. Notre petit bonhomme dégomme donc des xénomorphes qui ont infesté différents niveaux de différentes installations… autant dire que ça s’avère rapidement répétitif pour ne pas dire carrément chiant. Pas de sauvegarde (y compris automatique) autre que lorsqu’on a fini un niveau entier… entièrement ; si on meurt, comme un chat (mais nettement moins tout de même !) on entame notre crédit de… neuf, non quatre vies ! et on rédémarre pas loin de là on a mouru… La maniabilité reste des plus correctes (souris et clavier bien entendu) et les graphismes sont proprets (limité au 4/3 cependant, vu que c’est un machin qui date de 2005). Jolis effets sonores également. Mais c’est décidément très bête… et répétitif. Et chiant.

Reasonably entertaining top-down shooter with mediocre graphics and voice acting, but lots of fun weapons and enemies to fight. The plot gets pretty weird towards the end.

Very nice Third-Person fast-paced alien shooter. Excellent voice-overs. Story is basically this: aliens are attacking the Ganymede colony (one of Jupiter's Moons) - you are an engineer and need to take care of EVERYTHING :)) Yep! I liked it quite a bit. About 6 hrs of game in it. A twist at the end ;)

I played through the first two stages of this game and was thoroughly unimpressed; it took about an hour to do, and there was really nothing in there which made me want to keep playing. The voice acting was poor, the graphics did not age well, and there was really no hook that grabbed me and said "I am curious about what is going on/invested in the people in this game." The fact that there are grammatical errors in the text and even in the lines given to the voice actors is kind of sad. If you want to play a game like this, Alien Swarm is both free and vastly superior.

A decent little game that has plenty of action and different weapons to choose from, as well as a pretty solid story. Slight repetitiveness and very average voice acting which does pay a part in the game reduces the score.

the game was made in 2005-6 and the graphics are like it was made in 1999 the gameplay is just simple but good the story was awful (i didnt finish the game but i played 2-3 hours of the game and i just didnt want to play it anymore) i dont know how crazy all the ppl are who vote it for 10 this doesnt worth even 1 euro i am glad i won it on steam and i didnt pay for that s*it!

Story is a pretty generic Syfy one. Enemies aren't that difficult to face, story is also quite short. I finished the campaign in about 5 hours. Gameplay isn't that great, never really enjoyed my time with that game. Wouldn't recommend it.

Meh. Playing it in co-op is also a bored. These types of game should stay on flash nowadays as they do not age well. My opinion of course. Bland gameplay, graphics, and environments.

The only reason to buy this is if you don't like online games, because Alien Swarm is the same thing, but there are three major differences: 1. Alien Swarm is free 2. Alien Swarm is online 3. Alien Swarm is better Not saying much either, because Alien Swarm isn't that great.

A 3D top down shooter with weapons to upgrade and a semi destructible environment? Defiantly my kind of game. It is a LOT of fun. The (seemingly) pre-rendered cut scenes aren't that great and neither is the voice acting but the game play more then makes up for it.

This game could have been so much more! But let's start with what didn't work: the dialogues were mediocre at best. Although the controls were fairly good, there were problems with aiming. It's a shooter, and nothing else. Not only is the story linear, the game play is also. No fancy missions or character development, just run through shooting everything that moves. It's lacking a lot of depth. There's also no compelling reason to use any of the big weapons until very late in the game. The handgun works fine for 3/4 of the game (even on hard mode). On the good side, level designs were good, graphics were decent, the view angle is refreshing, and some of the scenes can put you on edge at times. If it's under 5$, you might feel you got your money's worth.

This game is very interesting, you have many weapons to choose from, upgrades that make a measle pistol into a little killing device, and a very interesting storyline and concept. The only thing that disappointed me in this game was the ending, it was quite anti-climatic really.
