Yes indeed. I have 'ahem' managed to aquire a copy, and it really is total rubbish.

It's hard to pick out a really bad thing about this game as everything is equally crap. But special mention has to go to the AI. It seems that AI is very very tough to get right as so many games make a complete mess of it. Digitalo Studios obviously can't do AI which makes you wonder why they not only made a game with enemies that need AI but also a bunch of companions that also rely on AI :?:

Although having your own team run into walls and force fields and shooting each other is nicely counterbalanced by the enemies getting stuck in corners and not shooting at anything much at all.

Uninstalled, deleted and forgotten about. :x

Leeched this off Sadako at the LAN (sorry!

) and its rubbish. Spend your money on something else..

I'm picking up vibes that say, 'this game is not the best.' Am I right?
