Chances are that you had one of two very distinct reactions the first
time you saw Starship Troopers. You either loved it for its great
special effects, hysterically cheeseball dialogue, and obtuse political
commentary. Or, you loathed it for pretty much all the same reasons.
Regardless of your opinion of the film, you will hate Starship
Troopers, the PC first-person shooter developed by Strangelite more
than seven years after the film"s release. This ugly, cumbersome,
and downright inept shooter contains none of the things that made
the film so charming. And even if you have no prior experience
with the name, the unbelievably repetitive gameplay, awful
graphics, horrendous voice acting, and myriad of technical
problems will have you screaming for the hills before you make it
through a full hour of this nonsense. This is a purely unnecessary
game that offers no justification for its existence, and it should
be avoided.
