PC PowerPlay Reviews HTTR

Post by Golf33 »

Issue #101 of PCPowerplay has a short review of HTTR, by Des McNicholas. He gives it 85% and a PC PowerPlay Game of High Distinction award, making it the second-highest scoring game in this edition of the magazine (Painkiller, the latest gory undead first-person shooter with all the graphical bells'n'whistles got 87%).

My favourite quotes:

"...a faithful simulation, underpinned by meticulous research, solid AI, a terrific combat system and a well-tuned interface."

"...represents good value for money..."

"...a far more satisfying experience than many strategy players will be used to."

Happy with that!

For those who don’t know, this magazine caters for the shoot-em up 3D gamer.

But they have a great section on the dream PC should you win the lottery tomorrow – the Beast and the affordable gaming machine for us mere mortals – the Beastie

I bought a copy this month (very unusual for me) to look at their latest Beast and was surprised to find this review.

Or more exactly. I was surprised to find a positive review in a magazine of this type.
