Perhaps the best game ever

In my opinion, the fact that this is an action game pulls off quite a lot quickly in the depth department. This is a nude woman all the way through. No, there's no nudity. But that's what it feels like. This action game is free completely of any toughness whatsoever, and indeed, excess emotion and anger will make you lose the game.

This game is often depicted as its own worst enemy. The bad guys will not react if you kill someone standing right next to him/her. However, the insane amount of enemies and their high-damage weapons and lack of health packs makes this all the while. It's worth every penny if you can get it cheap.

The quality of the graphics is so efficient that you would call it pure story. This is the level of being able to pause the game or quit it and walk away from it and consider it for months on end. Just take a look at some of the rooms and corridors and you would call it art.

At the end of intolerance, a new kind of shooter is born. That's how I'd describe Shogo. One level keeps you floating in space on a cruiser, making you question your actions as you walk around with a gun that's loaded. Another makes you feel angry the whole time, then you're required to rescue a cat at the end. Good level design. Other levels require absolutely no weapons fire and just good acting. The amount of choice here for a kind of forced rpg feeling is amazing and breathtaking.

It's forced onto you because you need the right attitude to keep gunning bad guys. And that's what makes this special. That when it's over, you feel like you've cheated to win, and therefore, the story lives on in your world.

Extremely Well Done

For those of who don't know this was a translated japanese game originaly, big mechas, very much like in anime. But the whole game isn't played in the mecha, there are missions, that you as a solider, must complete on foot. It isn't a mindless game where you are guided through, there are a couple places throughout the game where you actually get to chose whether you do one thing or the other, and hence changing the rest of the game. It has awsome multiplayer and great graphics, just make sure you have a computer with at least 500 MHz, it will be a little jumpy if you have too much less.

shogo, very good!

This has got to be one of my favorite shooters ever. The story is cool (not to mention hilarious), and the gameplay is nonstop fun. It mixes up the action with both on-foot and mech sequences, and both are different and exciting. I remember having a lot of fun with the multiplayer a few years ago, but good luck finding anyone to play it with these days... Anyway, it's cheap. Buy it.
