Abstract: One of the things that really grabbed me at E3 was how the game looked. And as I have had the chance to play my review copy I am still satisfied with the on-screen visuals. The action that is displayed is quite sharp and clean and it really does look g...
Abstract: I got a chance to check out Blacksite: Area 51 back in September (see our hands-on preview). I felt the game showed some promise at the time, but it was definitely missing something. Was the game able to rise to meet my expectations in the three months...
Abstract: The last few months have been a technicoloured rainbow of bliss when it comes to shooters on the 360. Weve had the deep blue underwater world of Bioshock, with its mature storyline proving that shooters neednt be mindless blast-fests, devoid of any k...
Abstract: del.icio.us | Digg This | Glink It This fall has been a paradise for fans of the first-person shooter genre. Between Bioshock, Halo 3, and Metroid 3, there has not been a shortage of triple-A titles. And I’m just going to be honest, the bar has be...
A basic, competent shooter with easy squad commands and morale system.

At the end of the day, Blacksite is a decent enough FPS title thats the gaming equivalent of a summer action blockbuster: it sure as hell wont win any Oscars but it delivers just enough thrills to make you feel like you got your moneys worth.--Tae K...
Abstract: Expectations can be a bitch. If publishers want their games to get out and get onto the wishlists of Pete and Paula Public, they have to showcase screens, movies and all sorts of stuff that makes an award-winning impression. However, that quick glimpse...
Abstract: I feel bad for Blacksite: Area 51. Sure, its not a great FPS title in by any means but it is a solid and enjoyable shooter that will no doubt get lost in the shadow of great games like Halo 3, Bioshock and The Orange Box.
