Once again, you, the player, return as a battle hardened marine fighting the forces of an alien enemy on the planet Stroggos. Your enemy, the clever and malevolent half machine half human Strogg have been invading earth for years, stripping the planet of its natural resources and using the body parts of the deceased for gory experiments. Now, in a last attempt to stop the invasion, you are sent to Stroggos to destroy your enemy before they destroy your world. However, the planned invasion on Stroggos ... Read More

Liked it better than Doom 3 and the exp pack. At least it didn't take 10 seconds to put a shell in the shotguns chamber. Better weapons also. To bad Raven abandened Soldier of Fortune.
Rating: - pretty, linear and no directions
wish I could have all the effects cranked, but, even with the newest patch, I couldn't access the very highest resolutions (and it wasn't my system since it's a 2007 high-end/crossfire model).

I had to reboot twice to get this installed. 'Way too much work for a so-so game. Pretty graphics, boring gameplay. Shoot-it-up, fine. I started shoot-em-ups with the original Wolfenstein. It was immeasurably better than this. I wish that it was the old 'try-before-you-buy' days. I wouldn't have bought. Find another...better would be easy.
Rating: - After Quake 3?
After Quake 3 I was really apprehensive about this purchase. I thought, oh no not another frag everything party but this has goal. Not much of a story but it was ok because the graphics were cool and game play smooth. I thought it was long enough but game writers need to include more puzzles in these to add to fun. The AI in this is terrific for the time it came out and the weapons selection is super. Once again I find myself comparing every game to Half life.
