A good, fun shooter that should please a lot of FPS gamers. 0
I remember back before Area 51 was released. People were saying that it was revolutionary and that it was going to change the gaming world.

David Duchovny huffs some Nyquil...and a game happens. 0
2005. Six years. It isn't really that long ago, all things considered. But in the evolution of the FPS genre, it may as well be the dark ages. Looking at AREA-51 today, it's hard not to judge it by the contemporary standards which FPS players have become accustomed to, but I'm going to give it a shot, seeing as I just completed the PC version.Note: Installing this game on a modern PC is a bit of a chore, due to the Starforce DRM on the DVD which happens to be incompatible with both Vista a...
