Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Một trong những con game tuổi thơ yêu thích nhất của tôi. Mỗi lần tôi chơi lại con game này, bao nhiêu kỷ niệm với thằng bạn thân lại ùa về. Con game có nhiều màn chơi, bắt người chơi phải vượt qua. Về mặt gameplay thì con game này khá hay. Hệ thống vũ khí cũng khá đa dạng. Không thể kiểm tra một con game đã hơn 25 năm tuổi. Nhìn chung thì con game này rất đáng để chơi và trong tương lai, mỗi khi mình buồn mình đều mở nó ra chơi lại, cũng như để ôn lại những kỷ niệm tuổi thơ đẹp đẽ. »
« After ancient times of Doom this was my most played FPS, so I remember it fondly. »
« This is my childhood game. It's full of nostalgia for me... I love it. It's freakin awesome... »
« The next-gen Counterstrike. Was exactly what CS should have looked like after 1.6, the next logical step. Unfortunately the lack of success didn't push this game to a broader audience. It's a must play, reminds me of the good old days... »
