Review written by Kevin Parrish.

Midway's science-fiction themed FPS BlackSite: Area 51 has been criticized for graphics flaws and a generic shooter formula. But is the game really that bad?

I'm sick of reading these reviews to find out its not a PC title. If its not PC I dont care. I dont visit tomshardware for console news... I think it would be a good idea if the reviews showed the platform on the first page.

I read the complete review of Area 51 and I still don't know what platform it runs on. Good show reviewer! :fou:

That was my fault, not Kevin's. It's the Xbox 360 version. I will re-edit the review to make this clear. Sorry for the screw up.

Well, the game is a console port so the PC version most likely looks very similar to the console but with mouse&keyboard + the option of choosing a better resolution.

I haven't played the game but who in their right mind would buy a game at 60$ when Crysis, COD4 and others only cost 50$? ***What were they thinking!!! -Videogame nerd.
