Otherwise you will be off target and get caught in an endless fullisade of punches and kicks.

The key thing is pausing your mad mash of buttons so your character can turn back to face your foe. Combat: A necessary evil, but once you're good at it, you can trounce anything that moves. There is an explanation for everything you've done and every thing you need to do. If you do look around carefully, you will see that the guys at Origin put a hell of a lot into this game. If you don't take the time to read every datapad and other information you come across, stuff will make no sense and you'll want to rip the CD (or the CD-rip) in half. Sort of cliche to start, but it picks up nicely when you escape, and beat your fellow cellmate to death with his own severed arm.

Your goal is to escape and find out your identity, hopefully punishing your torturers on the way. You've been made into the ultimate killing machine, and you have been stripped of your memories. The voice-acting is some of the best I've heard in video games (not a lot of competition) and actually adds to the atmosphere rather than looking tacked-on.īioforge casts you as an unknown test subject in a diabolical secret research project by some cultish baddies.

Still I love this game, because of the great plot, the excellent atmosphere, and the at the time state-of-the-art textured polygon graphics. Bioforge is an action/adventure game that tries to do a lot, and only succeeds at some of it.Īlso it is at times ridiculously difficult, and combat can be a frenzied, disappointing experience.
