Action Evil Genius

---

Evil Genius review:2 stars (Management) - This is a brilliant game -- conceptually. The problem is squarely with the owner of the company. Somewhere he/she trusted a core developer. You've got great EVERYTHING, art/concepts, everything except programming. You WANT this game to succeed. But game drags and the problem is in the game core. It's irritating to the extreme trying to do anything. The agents move faster than the mouse and I have a 1.6 Ghz machine! They insist that you buy hardware to make up for their bad game core! We can only hope that the game is bought by another company, dumping the boss and his tech friend, and is rewritten in a form that actually works. Or, of course, if you have a 64 meg graphics card, and whatever else the game needs to make up for it's core failures, then you can enjoy it's genius.

1 stars (Evil Genius is possibly the buggiest program since WindowsME) - I got Evil Genius from my local retailer, and it seemed like a unique concept, but to say that it has a few bugs is like saying Michael Jackson is only a a little bit white. It seems to install fine, but when you try to play the game, it restarts my PC.

Ok, so I un-installed it, and tried again only to have same problem. I F-Disk and re-install windows and make sure all of my drivers are up-to-date... try again and still same problem. We were told to "wait for the patch", which we patiently did, but still the same issue. The people who were lucky enough to actually get into the game, found a slew of other bugs.

My local retailer would not take the game back due to the "opened software policy" and the folks over at the Vivendi technical boards act as if they could care less, so I guess I am out $30.

I never thought I'd say this about ANY software.... but this makes Windows ME look like a programming masterpiece. I have since used my Evil Genuis cds as a doggie chew-toy, because that's about all it's good for.














3 stars (Fun at first yet....) - Fun at first yet the gameplay gets tedious.
Good for around twenty hours. Then you realise your just doing the same thing over and over.

You build your base, someone destroys something, you rebuild it, then agents destroy it again.
