ALPHA PRIME Review

Written by zhangyuan on February 03, 2009 16:20
 The first-person shooter genre certainly seems to be bursting at the seams with AAA games that push the FPS genre forwardPractically every year a new game comes out that becomes the standard bearer for all future FPS gamesOne day your game might be the genre-defining example of innovative gameplay but within a week the game is old hat because something new came outWhat about the FPS games that fall below the radar of the hype train that is the mainstream gaming press?  Alpha Prime is one of those games since it doesn't try to offer a genre-breaking gameplay experience yet still packs plenty of firepowerFurthermore, the safest and quickest way of changing Final Fantasy XI Gil is to Buy FFXI Gil in stores, where the price of Final Fantasy XI Gil is reasonableYou can change for Cheap FFXI Gil whenever you want with little money

 

The story is your basic science-fiction story; the plot centers upon hubbardium, an element that powers space travel and is highly desired by race of manA huge asteroid was soon discovered with a huge abundance of hubbardium and a mining facility was built on the asteroid by the CorporationHowever the hubbardium soon started to cause insanity among the miners and the Corporation was forced to seal off the mineThe asteroid was named Alpha Prime and workers soon started to spread tales that the hubbardium was actually part of a living creature on asteroidIt didn't take long before illegal traders and miners tried to exploit Alpha Prime for its hubbardiumYou play the role of Arnold who has been persuaded by his former friend Warren and his old girlfriend Livia to help find out what's wrong with Alpha Prime.

 

Tried-and-true gameplay elements make up the majority of Alpha PrimeYou get the typical 'shoot as many people as possible and solve a few puzzles' element that we've seen in other gamesYou also get a large assortment of guns and a slow-motion effect that we've seen become popular over the past few yearsAlpha Prime doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, so to speak; instead it offers a straight forward FPS gameTips of making FFXI Gil are numerous; the best and quickest way is to Buy FFXI Gil in an online Cheap FFXI Gil store or professional Final Fantasy XI Gil websites, from where you can Buy FFXI Gil with reasonable price.

 

The basic gameplay centers upon you, Arnold, as he tries to find Warren in the mines of Alpha PrimeThe enemies are a mixture of crazed workers from the mines and military units sent in by the Corporation to stop youAlmost right at the beginning of the game you will probably notice that the A.Iof the enemies is lackingI would often stand next to an enemy who wouldn't do anythingOther times the enemies would keep running into walls to get away from me when I chased after themNo matter how questionable the enemies' intelligence was looking at me, their aim was always accurateThe only time an enemy missed me was when they would run away, which wasn't that oftenThis made the difficulty challenging whenever you entered a room with more than two enemies at a timeNo amount of cover or slow motion could compensate for five or six enemies with deadly accuracy.

 

Probably the best parts of the game are the visuals and storyGraphically the game reminded me of Doom 3 even though the game doesn't use the Doom 3 engineThe character models and stages looked very similar to Doom 3The framerate was consistent and rock solid regardless of the action on the screenThe story of the game unfolds nicely as you meet various characters in the game and find out more about Arnold and his relationship with his ex-girlfriend LiviaThe voice acting in the game was well done which helped in making the story more believable regardless of the science-fiction settingBesides, there is also an interesting mmorpg game called Final Fantasy XIAnd FFXI Gil is the most valuable form of currency in Final Fantasy XIWe are a group of dedicated players who have come together to provide Cheap FFXI Gil for the community

 

The big issues for Alpha Prime are the A.I and gameplayThe A.Iis so inconsistent that you can never tell how each stage will play outOne minute the game is clipping along at a nice pace with some great encountersThe next minute you're watching enemies run into walls or stand next to you without any actionBut then you run into a room filled with enemies with pinpoint accuracy that causes you to replay the stage five or six times before finishing itThe gameplay itself is the tried-and-true experience we've already had in other games; nothing really stands out as new or exciting, especially for a FPS gameAnd we all know that Final Fantasy XI is a famous mmorpg gameFinal Fantasy XI Gil world is the largest secure store for Members buying Cheap FFXI GilThere is only one real member store to provide FFXI GilOur loyal members knew that FFXI Gil world provides the cheapest FFXI Gil for their members
