As a no-frills action RPG, this game knows what it is and does what it does exceptionally well in all areas - and I for one couldn't be any more ecstatic over how it turned out.

In terms of fun factor, it doesn’t get much better than this. The game is definitely rough around the edges in a number of places and its slim production values often show through the seams of the otherwise lovely game engine, but none of that real

This game is definitely old-school. AS: V is simple to learn, provides some good exploration, a lot of extermination of aliens, and some laughs along the way. if you're looking for a lite shooter that isn't so serious, check this out.

Alien Shooter: Vengeance doesn't deliver anything fancy or new to the table, and it certainly doesn't win any awards fro graphical realism. However, the game does present solid arcade-style gameplay that is relatively simplistic but pretty fun at the same

This game is for a very particular type of gamer. One who liked the movies "Starship Troopers" and "Aliens" and someone who likes shooting holes into giant beasties, there is blood, there is foul language, there is an awful lot of killing, and I for one c

The game may be a little too self-consciously old-school for some, but the action is so fast, furious, and blithely bloody that it's hard to resist getting swept up in the carnage.

It’s a lot of fun. However, marred by various minor nuisances, and ultimately simple and repetitive gameplay, some gamers may tire quickly. This title is recommended if you’re simply looking for some quick, mindless fun.

If you are looking for a game to play for a few minutes when you get home from work to blow off some steam without asking you to think or work to hard, then this might just be a game for you. However, if you want a game that will push your skills to the

Alien Shooter Vengeance manages to make the whole scale slaughter of thousands of vicious aliens tedious and repetitive.

Alien Shooter may be a one-trick pony, but its mindlessly addictive game play makes it oddly compelling.

It's fun and violent and asks nothing at all from its player than to spend a few minutes blowing things to pieces whenever they feel like it, rewarding them with epic levels of blood and gore when they do.

While Alien Shooter: Vengeance does have a few flaws in it's mix and is a rather old-school title in both it's gameplay and it's graphics, at the same time it is actually quite entertaining in that it can be increasingly hard to put down the farther you g

Your average dungeon crawler. The graphics are nothing special, the audio isn’t amazing, and it’s a short game, but if you enjoy exploring dungeons and have $20 to spare, then I would defiantly consider getting this one.

For $19.99, it's a fun, easy to play game that demands nothing of its players other than pointing and shooting...at the aliens.

Swing and a miss! You can safely skip this one even if they cut the price in half. [May 2007, p.63]
