Reception
IGN praised the game for its solid framerate, but noted that the story at times "Doesn't work", and that the humor was "groan-worthy".[1] The game was panned in the press for being mediocre in comparison with other FPS games released around the same time. It has an average rating of 56% on GameRankings.
