    X-Files: Resist Or Serve

    It's ... it's ... actually quite good!

    It's also very easy and, for the most part, a complete rip off of RE/SH (some moments almost baiting accusations of code theft).

    Nevertheless:

    - it's very atmospheric, and perfectly in tune with the feel of the show
    - voice acting is excellent thanks to original cast member involvement
    - superbly written dialogue by one of the series writers (extending even to Mulder's porn addiction)
    - Mark Snow soundtrack
    - there are bonus dvd features
    - it supports widescreen

    However:

    - camera can, at times, be a nuisance
    - viewpoint isn't fixed behind you like in SH, so no control over the camera either
    - fans of either RE or SH will find the game pretty darn easy
    - the game has to load quite frequently, though loading times are blissfully short

    One for the fans, most definitely. I doubt people cold to the series will be hugely impressed, but considering the cancellation of the Xbox version, the delays and the price reduction to $29.99 it could've been a helluva lot worse.

    Certainly sounds like a relief! After the constant delays, cancellation of the XBox version, and video footage of Mulder swaggering around a Cafe shooting at 'zombies' I had all but given up hope, might pick it up now for that price.

    Thanks for the impressions, be sure to let us know if they change after you've completed it.

      Thanks for the impressions.
      I was looking forward to this game, even though I stopped watching the TV-series quite a while ago. The very early episodes though are still fresh in my memory. (good atmosphere and feel)
      However, after I have seen some screenshots and short movies of the game in action it appeared to me as a standard (bad-quality) movie-port.

      I can imagine this game really lives or dies with its atmosphere. (at least for me)

      I?m looking forward to your final thoughts on the game.
