In full transparency, the first time I played the game I considered it and ok game. This is not a novel but a basic shooter game, still there is some story to follow. Now that I am finally able to play it on 3D with superdepth and several reshade shaders on my headset, I can say confidently that this game is under rated.

One of the earlier games I played when it first came out and I am going through it again just to feed my nostalgia and my Sado/mass gaming self!:) Seriously screwed game mechanics that force you to play along with the linear "path" and play by the developers scripted rules which are irritating in this rather challenging game as it is with the fast moving robot enemies and armored Merch's tough to bring down. You...

It's not a good game. But weirdly, I think people should play it. Partly for the janky charm of mid 2000s sci-fi, and for the ridiculous challenge the game offers. I found this game to be unreasonable. The enemy aim and awareness is incredible, and your guns and health are pretty underwhelming. The shotgun is decent, but you have to be so close that the enemies will nail you well before you can get in range. The...

Я играл в неё очень давно и очень много раз — кажется, я прошёл её уже раз 500, и этот год не стал исключением. Несмотря на то, сколько времени прошло, я до сих пор с огромным удовольствием возвращаюсь в Alpha Prime. Для меня это не просто старый шутер, а настоящая частичка детства. Атмосфера космической станции, оружие, перестрелки, музыка и сама история до сих пор вызывают приятную ностальгию. Да, по...

HOW IN THE H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS IS ALPHA PRIME THIS GOOD??? this is not even some hidden 10/10 masterpiece that everybody unfairly ignored. this is a completely normal, borderline mediocre 6/10 sci-fi fps from 2007. the enemy ai sometimes runs directly into gunfire like it has somewhere important to be, the voice acting sounds like everybody recorded their lines at 3:00 in the morning, and the story is delivered...

Runs well but the story and voice acting are so bad it actually takes away from the game. Gunplay is pretty fun but your damage output feels like you're shooting spitballs, while "Arnie" is made of paper mache and will have you back tracking for meds regularly. Love "retro" FPS games but this one is just kind of unfun. I'd leave this one in 2007.

It's just, not that good. Worth 5$ if you're bored though. Enemies suck. I don't care that they are dumb but they literally fire what feels like the frame they see you. Game thinks it is more interesting than it is. Worth 5$ but I don't know many functional games that aren't

Alpha Prime is nothing more than a fairly average sci-fi shooter, but what makes it different from similar titles is its difficulty. I decided to play on hard as most FPS games nowadays are not that difficult and was pleasantly surprised when I found myself losing half of my HP to one enemy and almost running out of ammo at various points in the game. The shooting mechanics aren't that bad and it's actually fun to...

One of the "typical scifi FPS from 2000's borrowing gameplay features from other successful titles" games that flooded the market after 2000's and kept coming for a while. If you are looking for something like that, I can recommend this game but only with the fan made patch. With it the game feels complete, without it, the enemies are aimbots and the game doesn't feel that finished, altough it can be still...
