Well this is a game I never knew existed. Most of these games, I had minor knowledge of, but this is a game I never heard of, not a once. Terrawars: New York Invasion is a shooter all about playing as a soldier that must stop an alien invasion taking place in New York, obviously. The game was developed によって Lady Luck Digital Media, this being their first and last game. Released on Xbox Original and PC, Terrawars was a game made on passion. The developers themselves went to New York City, Manhattan to be exact, in order to get the game to look as close to New York as possible. It’s kind of nice that these guys had the passion to do that. Now, did they put as much effort into the game developing itself? No.



So the game starts with a タイトル screen that looks like your mom spilled wine on the family vacation 写真 によって accident and we start with the first level of the game. The game doesn’t really give あなた much context. あなた just start the game and are dropped into a cutscene of a destroyed New York while your helicopters fly overhead. And with no 音楽 または dialogue, just the sound of the helicopters, it gives a very awkward feeling. Then あなた get the first mission… It’s a タレット section, yippie. And I don’t know if it’s my version of the game, but the gatling gun is loud. Like really lou. I had to turn down the volume on my TV to keep it quiet. And the aliens in this game look really dull. They’re just these blue humanoids that explode in a 火災, 火 of green when あなた kill them. These aren’t the aliens from Halo, that’s for sure. Thankfully the タレット section isn’t too long and あなた get on foot eventually. But man, does it leave much to be desired. Unlike other FPS games like Halo, which has a lot going on and with quick gameplay, Terrawars just has あなた stand there as あなた 火災, 火 at one alien at a time, slowly draining their health before あなた 移動する onto the 次 one. Why do these aliens have to have so much health? It’s just tedious to kill them. And the lack of any ambience または any 音楽 または anything but your gun and the same one scream sound あなた hear from the aliens starts to get really tiring. But trust me, once I got to the first friendly ally in the game, I wish I didn’t ask.
あなた run into a friendly AI shortly in the first level, and boy, did this game skimp out on the voice acting. Private Jim モーガン, モルガン (Yes, that’s his name) just walks up and talks like a shitty Inspector Gadget, and what do あなた get next? もっと見る enemies to shoot. It’s not challenging, maybe it’s harder on difficulty, but that doesn’t change the fact that they take so much ammo to kill. In a game like this, you’d want an enemy to die quickly, 移動する on to the next, and keep moving. That’s what makes a FPS game fun. Not slowly picking them off with gun like you’re trying to chip at a sidewalk. Terrawars feels もっと見る like hard work than a fun game. Now あなた do get an assault ライフル which makes picking them off a もっと見る bearable task, but let me ask you. Do あなた wanna play a cheap FPS game with the same looking alien enemy that runs at あなた and dies in a green flame in a very bland environment with no sounds but your gun and Inspector Gadget, または do あなた wanna play the Halo?
Terrawars is probably one of the hardest games I had to review, not because it’s a difficult game または a game I don’t want to play (I don’t want to play it), but because there is nothing to talk about. What あなた see is what あなた get, people. There is nothing much to see here. If あなた saw the gameplay, just for a second, you’ve seen the entire game. I don’t think あなた are missing anything when I tell あなた you’ll be better off playing any other FPS game. Terrawars is just another dull, uninteresting FPS in a sea of dull, uninteresting FPS’s.
