Aliens fans rejoice, but just don't compare too heavily to the inspiration. If I were a teacher grading homework, I might have to change the score the minute I reach little XCOM.
This game was woeful. Corny story, terrible voice acting, none of the interesting weapons from the first game, and the enemies were literal sprites. Worst thing to happen in 2003 by far.
Great roster of characters, iconic announcer, but ultimately a repetitive and bland gameplay loop. I may just be salty because Quake was no longer a single-player focused game.
