Retrovirus - PC Game Review
Retrovirus is a 6 degree of freedom, first person shooter. The immediate comparison, for any old PC gamer at least, is with Descent.
I've played all 3 and really, really liked it, so when I saw this game and that it had good reviews I instantly bought it.
However, my experience with it isn't great. Somehow, the shooting experience isn't fun, and the enemies seem a bit silly. And the music, oh the music is spectacularly annoying after a few minutes.
The story revolves about a worm that invaded the computer and is corrupting it. You, the anti-virus, go around destroying the virus, as well as disinfecting citizen code. You also get access to upgrades and extra weapons later in the game.
The graphics are a bit garish, but are nice for the setting. It is the gameplay and the music that are the problem.
Overall, I really didn't like it. Not recommended at all.
