    Alien Swarm, worth the money. Bite Size Review.

    Alien swarm is another great co-op game made by the King Of Co-Op lately Valve.
    First off this game looks great even though its done on the Source engine, which doesn't really have the best looking games around. The gameplay is soild after my hours of playing this game, I hadn't found any issues with the gameplay and neither did any of my fellow space people. Sound is alright, the guns sound great but as I was playing I didn't pick up on any of the alien sounds, not to say they ain't there. Just couldn't hear them over the constant gun fire. The only bad thing about this game is that the amount of levels you have isn't nearly enough, because the eneimes don't random they always come the same way etc. But the most important thing is this game is free and it is well worth your time.

      Alright, boys and...well, it's an internet video game site, so boys pretty much covers it. It's time for a history lesson. Alien Swarm was originally a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004. Released in, well, 2004, it provided a top-down perspective of you and up to 7 other buddies slaughtered your way through a bunch of aliens all while leveling up the four classes in an RPG like manner. As time wore on, and the game started to show its age, there were reports that a new product was heading to Steam....
