Aquanox
(hx) 05:50 AM CET - Dec,11 2001
Aquanox is an first-person shooter set in a spectacular undersea world in the year 2666. Maybe you should to know that Aquanox is actually a sequel to 1997's Archimedean Dynasty, a subsim game that is similar in style to space sims like Privateer. That's why Aquanox features a similar design, as you'll return to the underwater world of Aqua featured in Archimedean Dynasty as a mercenary who gains credits by completing combat missions. However the games are pretty different, while Archimedean Dynasty was a complex, mission-based simulation with trading and privateering, Aquanox is fast paced fist-person shooter! The game features over 30 single-player-missions, 9 completely different playerships, over 40 different enemies, including gigantic creatures, solid story and detailed world with over 70 NPCs and multiplayer support including deathmatch, teambased etc. You can tell me, that gameplay in Aquanox is too much simplistic, but I don't care :) I have been playing Aquanox for the past five days and I like this game very much. I could say it's pretty addictive shooter. Don't forget to try this playable demo (60MB) and visit
Aquanox homepage for more info.
snd: 4/5 - great techno/house aggressive soundtrack, poor&non-professional voice-acting
gfx: 5/5 -
impressive, playing ground looks very realistic, GeForce3 support, eye-candy and thunderous explosions, utilizes self-developed KRASS-Engine from Massive, too cheap looking movies
playability: 5/5 -
excellent, addictive (though it's repetitive shooting), interesting story line, multiplayer via the Internet/LAN (Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag), skirmish missions are too difficult

a decent game, nice fps, but I hope more subs are available, and maybe it would be better if it have battle cruiser type of gameplay though |
