Annihilation Line, like the base game is a solid, if limited Terminator experience, unfortunately let down by a lack of variety.

The open areas are easily the best part, Terminator is a really good setting for a horror experience, and carefully making your way through Skynet patrols is genuinely a daunting experience, especially early on when you don't have many options to fight back. The linear sections are a mixed bag, and unfortunately expose the A. I's shortcomings as they stand and wait to be shot. It's hard not to see them as glorified shooting galleries, as they lack any of the tension exemplified by the open area levels. There are some cool moments but they're not going to set the world on fire, especially at this budget.

With all that being said, Resistance is still a fun time and it's clear that Teyon has a lot of love for the brand. I don't understand how this and the base game were so critically panned when there are far worse games being released from much bigger companies that review better.
