In
the third chapter of the Hack
saga, the World continues to deteriorate as the virus spreads
out of control. As the outlaw player, Kite, you must choose
your strategy wisely. Not only is the outbreak affecting the
World in the game, but now repercussions are being felt in
the real world too. Is there a way to stop this outbreak?
Where does the answer to the mystery lie? Fight through contaminated
cyberspace as you take on and eliminate enemies, and unlock
codes to gate hack to even more environments. Will you ever
find out who or what is behind this nightmare and wake Orca
from his coma?...
Outbreak
is
the the third in the Hack series of games. If you haven't
bought episodes one and two then you might as well give up
all hope of trying to fathom what is going on. This is not
a game you can simply take out of the box and play straight
away. No provisions have been made to ease any new players
into this chapter.
But
then, if you already have the first two chapters, the purchase
of this game will probably make you realise that you are being
ripped off. The Hack series will eventually be spread
over four games and after playing this chapter I have to confess
that I don't understand how they have managed to stretch it
over three titles, let alone four. That means that you are
effectively paying £160 for one game.
There
is a stupid amount of padding here, and you'll spend a great
deal of time wandering around from room to room before any
real action happens. This is especially true of the dungeon
areas - all of which look identical. And the possibilities
that could have been made of the facility to jump from one
world to another is also wasted due to the fact that all worlds
look identical.
The
fact that Atari are expecting innocent gamers to fork out
a small fortune for this series is a crime in itself. How
long will it take to dawn on fans that they are just buying
the same game over and over again with hardly any real advancements?
