If you're a fan of the Unreal engine and love realistic damage, weapons, and teamplay combat, this is for you. Almost everything is movable or explosive. Ragdoll physics is always a plus ;-) The graphics are about 2001'ish (so no problems with compatability) but is VERY detailed. Also, this game is EXTREMELY challenging (so this game might not be for everyone hence teamplay and flanking/outsmarting your enemies play an important role) so you will be forced to save almost after every firefight. It would have helped alot to have hotkeys instead of a non-pause pulldown order menu for your teammates, because firefights can end quickly in your death or a buddies, if you're not fast enough to give orders at the right times. Also, you know on alot of first person shooters how you can see only an arm or a leg sticking out of cover that you can shoot at? Well the A.I can do the same to you which is a pain in the butt sometimes being a very quick and cheap death. Overall, this should be in everyones cheap FPS library, and if not, you're missing out on a wonderfully put together game (with the patch)

action packed first shooter. Keeps you busy and the story line is good. I would buy part two in a second.
Underappreciated and overlooked

It sucks that this game did so poorly, because it is great! The single-player game could go in the garbage - but the multiplayer is probably the best I ever experienced. I played a multiplayer demo of it back when it first came out and that was all I played for a good long time. The weapon selection, the balance map design and gameplay were awesome.
Unfortunately no one plays this game anymore so there are no MP servers to connect to. What a missed opportunity.

You get to pick up new weapons, use a mouse (the blows up), use guns (up to 50) and you get to blast the heck out of the people. The plot, trying to achieve something. Its actually quite fun, I like to blast them strait to hell with my laser gun. A GREAT GAME UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES. This game isn't suitable for children under 13

Devastation is your basic run of the mill fps... the graphic are good but could be a bit more polished. and the game could get a decent score but the ai has many problems. many. the enemy ai is insulting the ai will do dumb thing like... wait for you to reload behind a corner...Guard corners...and my favorite walk right into you crosshairs. and you have team mebers to "help you" the game htat could be a decent run and gun now is an escort mission. the ai the enemy are grace with is also in your teammates. if your teamate dies you have to do the mission over again and you do that alot because your team is sucidel. save your money and buy another fps like unreal
Overpriced and Buggy

This game is very buggy. I bought it and it is slow and the physics, while cool are pretty unrealistic. This should have been a budget title - it is not worth the $$$.
GREAT CONCEPT, TERRIBLE EXECUTION

First of all, forget what anyone else says. This is a terrible game. The enemies and squadmates are total idiots! The graphics look terrible.
Multiplayer thingers...

There seem to be so many bugs in multiplayer, random items floating in the air, strips of ammo floating in the air, randomly moving an object that is no where near you, shooting a gun even though nothing is coming out (such as, you'll have reloaded your gun and then suddenly you can't shoot it anymore), let's see...team switches/scores are occasionally screwed up, sounds are poor, BUT, Graphics are pretty nice due to UT2, and it's an overall fun game even with so many bugs. However, I have noticed this game seems like 3 other games: Red Faction (the Antique Machine Gun, nOOb cannon, a real lamer weapon, as well as a lot of bugs, RF had so many bugs it isn't funny) Red Faction 2 (the style of gameplay) and Counter-Strike (the purchasing menu)...and one thing I don't like about it is the arrogant people that play it, and the way the game shows how somebody killed somebody else...still fun though :)
Really bad game, but fun.

This game is really bad, extremely buggy, and a complete rip-off of 3 games: Red Faction (bugs,"Antique Machine Gun", Red Faction 2 (everything can be duel, similar graphics), and Counter-Strike (purchasing system). The graphics are good, however, sounds of the guns/explosions are terrible, and the character body structure is too bulky. Don't buy Devastation unless you like amusing games that which are loaded with glitches and tile errors. And multiplayer isn't very good, either.
