Since me and the Mrs. spend a good deal of our time saving the world from the creeping unknown, getting into this game was no problem. Although dated by 3DO standards, this early title will provide a good dose of "Doom-styled" action for junkies of that genre and will give you a taste of what to expect from it's forthcoming sequel, Killing Time. If you can hunt this one down, it'll be worth the trouble.

R.I.P.
Hmmm... This game is worth a one time rental, but I would never recommend someone to buy it. It's to slow paced, boring, I swear if I don't go blind from looking at the graphics I'll fall asleep from listening to the sound. There is obviously a good game idea behind this title, but it just never made it out into the open.
