Area 51 - Xbox

A New Gaming Experience

I think that Area 51 is really a revolution in the gaming world because it is one of the only games that really exposes what we believe area 51 really looks like. The game includes testing on humans, government cover-up, hidden alien species underground, and even the so called, "fake" moon-landing. This really is an alien/U.F.O. nerd's dream game! If you are as obsessed with aliens and what is really out in the universe as I am, then you will love this game. After all, the universe is just too damn big for us to be alone...

Great Game

Great graphics, good storyline, amazing gameplay...my only issue with this game is it's length. i beat it in about 3 or 4 hours but it was extremely fun while it lasted.

At first playing this game i was reminded of the arcade and immediatly thinking i would need a light gun. Well i was wrong...and im glad too because as a first person shooter this game is pretty fierce. It is a sci-fi fpshooter, but dont you dare compare it to halo 2. Area 51 has alot of different qualities to offer. Area 51 has a great campaign mode which immedietly immerses you in the role of Ethan Cole. David "Mulder from X-files" Duchovny provides his voice for your character and after every level it makes he more intresting providing his own verbal diary of the events that had just passed..the story is well scripted and its fun non stop action. The gameplay is pretty sweet the weapons you'll never grow tired of blastin aliens with dual wielding shotguns. What also is cool is the ability to change yourself into the alien and have the special abilities that go along with it. Wrap it up id say the gameplay was great, easy controls. Fun to play and the graphics are great(xbox potential) and the weapon firing animations are also pretty realistic. Im giving this a 4/5 beacause of the Multiplayer. It's just not as fun as the Campaign..but this game is a definate addition to ANY sci-fi first person shooters library!

"Area 51 is one of the best underated games I've played in a long time"

Ok. I know its been a long while since my last review. But I might still be able to pull it together. Let me start of by saying that this game should have got more critical acclaim than it did. Not only did the framerate handle perfectly with the relentlessly fast gameplay, the story was on cue to make a very good movie. The only thing that holds this game back is that the FPS mechanics of the game have already been done countless times bfore. It's a very good thing that I decided to wait for it to become cheaper because it is definitly worth $20.00. Anyone who likes FPS absolutly must pick this one up. *Looks like I am back in business cc6k(Jamal Higginbotham)
