With all the gaming companies spending all their time and the players money on unneeded 3d graphics and catchy explosions, it good to see that Black isles has remembered that tho graphics are nice, the real selling point of any game is fun-factor and plot. While other companies hash out more remakes of wolfenstein, BI takes a more hands- on approach, rather than just repeatedly clicking the mouse button and hoping you are facing the right direction, this game involves strategy and thought. It is the feeling of this writer that despite all the duke nukem 3d and unreals, as long as there are companies like Black Isles, and my personal favorite Blizzard, there is hope for the gaming community yet. -Cerebus
