How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. Its themes are action and science fiction. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Multiplayer and Single player. There are 58 achievements to unlock.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for 2 GHz Intel Processor or better, 1 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX or better, ATI Radeon 8500 or better, Intel i915 chipset or better 1024x600 resolution.
