COL Malice threatens nation’s very existence

Love the concept, enjoyed the cinematic sequences but was frustrated with the game play.

This first person shooter again has potential but lacks the ability to reverse/invert the left camera toggle which for a Tom Clancy/Halo player it can become relatively frustrating.

That aside it has the basics of a very good game with some VERY amusing “deconstruction” effects - which basically means you can specifically target certain environments or body parts of your foe.

Blast a leg off of a Tan soldier and watch as he hops around trying to kill you.

Also, as toys, melting and chipping effects are central to the game play.

On the verge of a long-awaited peace between the Green and the Tan, rogue elements of the Tan Army draw Sarge and his men out into combat.

Out in the field, Sarge discovers a new and diabolical enemy–Colonel Malice–equipped with weapons that threaten the very existence of the Green Nation.

With his squad destroyed, Sarge becomes a one-man army out to stop Colonel Malice at all costs.

You will use weapons such as carbine rifles, assault rifles, shotguns, bazookas, sniper rifles, grenades, flamethrowers, time bombs and mounted machine guns
