Expendable

"What are all those little ants down there?"

The only thing expendable here is this game. The game just didn't appeal to me. As a matter of fact, I don't think that it appealed to anyone.

The game is about a post-apocalyptic future where a band of aliens are attacking the earth. A war company had artificially created a band of expendable soldiers. There names are nothing but serial numbers. Pretty good plot for a bad game. Don't get me wrong, the plot is great, but the game play is terrible. The graphics aren't that bad except for one little thing... The view is like a bird's eye-view of New York from about three-hundred feet up. You can hardly see the characters at all. It's also hard to tell when there is an enemy coming after you because everything looks so small. To be able to see everything, you must have 50/50 vision. I know that that's impossible. Get my point? Thought so.

The controls are bad too. I's hard to aim at the enemies because the controls are too sensitive. You click the d-pad once for about half a second and the guy does a 180. The controls will make you very mad. I hate the controls for this game. They're terrible.

The sound and music aren't that bad though. No complaints in this area. The music is not staticy or anything. The sound is very clear. That's probably the only thing in this piece-of-trash game that I'm not against.

I have nothing else to say about this game except that is a piece of garbage. The programmers must have been drunk or something. Hey, take my advice and stay away from this game. If you read a review on this game and the review gives the game a good review, just don't pay attention to it. If you say to yourself one day, ''Gee, I wonder if this game is really that bad. I think that I'll go check it out.'' Then go ahead and try it. Satisfaction is NOT guaranteed. Don't buy this game. Don't even rent it. I'd rather see Titanic again than. play this game
