No.

What do you want to know about it?
If your used to playing RT RPG then you'll probably find it strage that both the wolverine SMG and wolf auto pistol can down even a Pincer unit.

For those that mentioned they don't like first person shooters. It was primarily designed as a 3rd person shooter. If you don't like fps do you like sims? Just wondering since their fps too?

Rented it, played it, wasn't too impressed.
If it had a story, I was too lost trying not to die to really catch all of it.
They need to tone down the "Muzac" of the background theme (not the best re-production) and sound effects, so I could hear the voice actors.
Also, making the story elements take place when I'm not getting shot at would help too...
I do think however, there are multiple endings to the game.

Overall: OK, but I'm waiting till it hits Bargain Bins (like Battlecry).

Dude, I've beaten the game already so I don't mind...but don't ruin the ending of a game for someone who's never played it before.

All in all, I enjoyed the game as a rental, and could easily see myself paying 20 bucks for it. But it's a shooter with limited replay value...so I don't like spending 50-60 on games of that nature.

Your only a 5th stage invid for the first half of the story. You sure you finished it? You play the second half from another characters point of view, the significant other of the the human the 5th stage was copied from.

Three endings... unfortunately the point at where you choose you can choose to save your (mind you it's a female character your playing toward the end) boyfriend/fience/husband.

It's not really the ending now is it, since the end doesn't happen until after you make the choice to hold your ground, kill your fience/boyfriend/husband or the other guy. Granted you are about 7/8ths of the way done. Heck I figured out what the character was around his second flash back. Why...what character in RT:NG had black out flashbacks, that revealed her past?

AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!! I am playing it now! Even though I had it figured out after his first flashback he was invid, I did not want to actually hear it. Ah well, what can you do, but play the game and kick invid butt while sporting a cool Cyclone and sniper rifle.
