i keep staring at that axe. it took me a while to understand that it is... getting tossed at the player's face?
because for a while there i thought it might be some sort of "invisible" enemy or perhaps even an alternate fire option where you could smack with the handle.
the farthest i ever made it was to the level after hell where you come up out of the grave and have to kill zombies in a graveyard and i could never get past it.
see, the difference between this game and doom is 1. you can switch between different weapons and 2. you can MOVE in doom. in this, you are just moved to a new location, and then for 5 minutes enemies pop out of one of four or so preordained locations. lame.
i think the difference in our opinions is in the approach. you approach it as a video game expert. in that light the game is terrible because there is no controlled movment and basically you just shoot shit.
for me as a maiden fan i take infinite pleasure in going into a virtual album cover and shooting up guys near the ruskin arms or eventually going to the pyramid level from powerslave.
as a video game it is crap.
as a novelty item for a maiden fan it rules my world. i just wish i had a better computer to play it on.
