What players say
dont see why all the negative reviews never had a problem with the game. like one guy said if you played and like the originals, then this will be fun. Only i didnt like is you can easily get stuck on some of the obstacles

Decent, short and sweet and if your a fan of the previous games, you'll notice missing features. Nothing major though, plays the same as a kind of mix of Alien Shooter 2 and 1 with limited upgrades. Some new enemy behavior and a bit nicer visuals. Otherwise about the same as the other games. Lacks the replay value of says Alien Shooter 2 Vengeance, but still, price is low enough that I can recommend for a good bit...
