Outcast

I first bought this game a year after its release.At the time i'd bought ....wait for it..... a 16mb 3DFX graphics card.Realising that this game couldn't show off my new card i put the game in the cupboard for 18 months. Finally one day when i was bored i thought i'd give the game another go and i'm so glad i did. If you can see your way past the rather strange rendering (which isn't bad, just different)you have a gem of a story.In fact it is the ONLY game to have moved me.The sheer effort that went into making this a believable experience is evident from the outset. Vast environments,wonderful characters and a first class musical score come together in a pretty much unique gaming experience. If you're cheesed off running and gunning down corridors or fighting in warehouses then this game might be the breath of fresh air you need. Worryingly i've become a preacher of all things Outcast, it kind of turns you that way. Enjoy.
