Tags: HarbingerThe Wargamer serves up a lengthy review of Harbinger, basically concluding with the reviewer saying he didn't like it, but didn't completely hate it either. Here's a clip:
Maybe unlocking the secrets of the Harbinger ship goes hand-in-hand with the character, but the lack of interactivity with other creatures, besides blasting them into mounds of jell-o, makes for a dull story that otherwise has significant potential. Some players may enjoy just going through and cutting down hordes of bad guys - but let's be honest, there's other genres that do the exact same thing and do it much better.
This is probably why I hated the game. It's basically a poorly done clone in an arena where the majority of other clones do nearly everything better.
