• The cutscenes in this game aren't anything to write home about. Unfortunately, given the limitations of technology and what could fit on a CD at the time, the film quality isn't the best. But none of that could stop the brilliant writing and performances.

    The story is set in an alternative Soviet world- splicing futuristic war with history. It's amazingly done and quite gritty AND witty at the same time. In a way, this kind of storytelling was pioneering for its time as we are seeing more and more of this kind of narrative enter our screens.

    Would recommend finding the cutscenes somewhere and watching, even if you aren't a gamer.
