Psychotoxic
A replay made after years of playing it on Windows XP. The only thing that isn't working are the movies, that are made in .avi format, but they use a strange codec bundled with the game. It isn't the most amazing FPS from 2004, but was speed running it without any problems and the gunplay is quite good for indie title. The enemies tend to group on you in corridors, and if someone finds you, usually other nearby foes will come as well. The pile of corpses combined with badly implemented psychics, where they freeze like in the stasis made me chuckle a little bit. You can "help" them by shooting a couple of times. After that, they finally lay on the ground. As for the weapons, the pistol with the silencer was my favorite for the first part of the story. It has the same sound, like in Terminator 2, when T1000 first encounters T800 and shoots him in the back :autism: .
It's year 2022, when the humanity faces the danger of total nuclear holocaust. The evil mastermind behind all this is Aaron Crowley, who looks like Caleb. If he was designed by Tim Burton for "Nightmare Before Christmas". We are playing as Angie Prophet, who looks like a goth chick who really likes Underworld movie and tight clothes :sweats: . The level design is really something. Apart from typical bases, offices and similar areas we will be introduced to some totally crazy ones, in the other dream realm. Each one is unique and makes Psychotoxic more unique. I've never had a problem finding my way through, as I was seeking colored cards like in a good old Doom, or keys/documents/etc. to move onward. We also find some superpowers, like shield/health regeneration/invisibility, and last but not least - slowing time. It's funny how in the same year later on we've got F.E.A.R who used it as well. Slow motion changes you into a total beast, and I was just obliterating enemies.
Overall, it was a really smooth replay. All the events that we are witnessing in the game, are during Christmas time. I didn't remember it, so it was a perfect timing, even if it wasn't intentional. Also, some of the music holds up and kicks ass.
