Coded Arms Contagion

Coded Arms: Contagion is a by-the-numbers first-person shooter that does nothing poorly, but nothing particularly well, either.

"So far, Coded Arms Contagion looks like a very solid shooter wrapped in some nice ideas."

I realize this was a harsh read, so I need to say -- again -- that Coded Arms Contagion isn't bad, it's just wholly uninspired. You'll never feel connected to the major (Does he die when he dies in A.I.D.A.?), the enemies (Are these real people or AI like Agent Smith?) or the game (Why am I playing this?). Games are supposed to layout the framework of a story and have you play to fill in the gaps, but Coded Arms unleashes you in a half-baked, story-less world and assumes you'll be happy going room-to-room shooting a bunch of bad guys as they appear for no real reason.
