It's not possible to scavenge the inventories of fallen opponents, is it?

Man I love this game! Thanks for finding it Tim!

Nikica: I'm not a tech-expert but it sounds like a DirectX problem, the game might not support your graphics card?

Parking garage level keeps crashing midway through for me...

Can anything be done besides walking and shooting at stuff? There's a distinct lack of tactical options. Not even saving APs for reaction fire.

Pretty poor game, in my opinion. The graphics are cute, though.

It's okay. There's a severe lack of tactical options, some of the items from the shop stay on screen while not in the shop. Also There's no tactical advantage other than having more guns in the game. You cannot strafe, duck, prone, or anything. You also half a third of the enemies AP, I guess they're just higher leveled but damn! It's got a good solid game-play the writing seems to be done by a 16 year old, the environment doesn't always make sense when shooting either. I guess I'm just spoiled by JA2 =)
