THE BAD:
Some Missions are too hard
Not enough variety in weapons
SUMMARY:
Now in Area 51 you Play as Ethan Cole a Hazmat team leader. You are asigned to investigate due to a destress call from Area 51. Once you Get there you learn your basic controls. Then the Fun starts things start to happen that are unexplainable. Then after a while you kill your first alien.
Not to Easy to Kill Either. Also the Multiplayer is good.Alot of Different levels. In the Game there are several Hidden Goods. That you can identify with your scanner. Also There are several Easter Eggs Such as The Roswell Incident | JFK's Assasination | The FAKING of the Landing on the Moon | The Burmuda Triangle. These things in itself are fun to find.
Over-all This Game is definately worth A rental AT LEAST!
THE BAD:
Can be a bit short
Needs more weapons
SUMMARY:
Area 51 is going into a big open desert filled with other first-person shooters such as Killzone, TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, World War Zero: Ironstorm and a lot more. Thankfully, Area 51 is unique and good enough to compete.
In Area 51, you play as Ethan Cole who is in the Hazardous Matierals Bravo squad. Despite them wearing the HAZMAT suits, these guys are very much like soldiers really. You and the rest of your squad are sent to down into Area 51 to see what is happening. There was a squad down there but are currently missing. Your basic mission is to find that HAZMAT squad and investigate the area.
The graphics of Area 51 are great from the get go. The character models are detailed, there is ragdoll physics, lighting is incredible...
