You're probably saying "Hey, Blacknite I checked in your signature on the forums and this game wasn't even mentioned!" Well, exactly. I thought I'd go away from the norm for a little while to be angry at another game. This game clocks in at round 1998, just about the time that Half-life came out. For the people who are going to whine, lets do a comparison:

Self proclaimed bad-ass SiN

The epic win that is Half-Life
Now.. I don't wish to be getting a billion e-mails detailing how SiN is better, but you just didn't look at it right. Well, It's in the eye of the beholder I Guess. I think the models from SiN are absolutely horrendous. You're probably going to look at both pictures and think "well, they don't look too far apart graphic wise". While that may be true (at least now it isn't because HL with full graphics on is fantastic.) HALF-LIFE HAS A DECENT FUCKING STORY. Thank god for Wikipedia, because without it I wouldn't have known the fucking back-story to sin because it well.. bored me to death. Let's talk about that story.
Set in the near future of 2037 - Jesus fucking christ... like we hadn't seen enough goddamned future games by 1998
10 years prior to the game, it is revealed that the police force collapsed due to inefficiency and ineffectiveness against the rising tide of crime - that sounds a lot like now.
So basically you're with this security porn Biotechnology company, because everyone loves those uprising self-efficient cunts that just can't make a normal police force. The only one thing this game did DECENTLY (and by decently, on this games level, means piles of donkey shit.) is that it allowed the environments to be breakable. You could break almost everything, thanks to their modified Quake II engine, from those lovely fellas at ID. While I can't necessarily understand why ID was whoring out source code every time someone needed to make an FPS, but I'll allow it, seeing as I love ID. It's just fucking awful. The game is awful. I really took the game disc and cut it in half with scissors, I don't feel bad.
This game was made by those fellows at FUCKBALLS STUDIO Ritual Entertainment. Most notable for their help with E.T. for the Atari 2600 25 to life, a shooting game that also blew chunks. If I were to give them a bit of advice... DON'T MAKE FUCKING SHOOTING GAMES, YOU CAN'T. It seems that most of the while this game was being made the developers were picking their noses and outsourcing the gun model creation to a team of primates with MS PAINT. It really goes without saying, this game SUCKED in 1998. I wanted to say that because people would be angry because I was comparing it to today's standard. Well.. No.. I'm not comparing it to a pile of shit as I'm concerned, at least that's what it's worth. I mean, seriously they could have spent more time working on this game than wanking each other over their mass success. It.. just.. pisses me off so much. IF I FIND THE DEVELOPER OF THIS GAME I'M GOING TO STICK QUAKE II SO FAR UP HIS ASS HE'LL HE SHITTING THE QUAKE SERIES FOR THE NEXT 30 OR 40 YEARS tell him very nicely that I don't much care for his way of making a game.
After this sickening display, I wasn't man enough to try to rest of them and the Emergence episode pack.
Due to my rather dubious contract with Meteoid, I have to give this a rating.
SO..

Theres my rating.
