Was reading Maxim Magazine(July 03) during my lunch break the other day, and under the Games column (Pg 86), Alex Porter wrote:
'Forget hiking up to the woods for a rain-drenched, cattle-scattering game of paintball. Just hook yourself into PlanetSide for a measly $12.95 per month fee and you can feast on round-the-clock galactic virtual warfare with hundreds of faceless gamers worldwide. Join the red, blue, or purple faction, each boasting special weapons and vehicles (and fashionable coordinated accessories, naturally). The goal's a bit complex: You and your teammates must comquer the planet by blowing up a bunch of shit. But leave the tactical stuff to the brainiacs--Just enjoy it as an impressive first-person shooter featuring grenade and rocket launchers, tanks, and airships. Load up on armor and assorted performance-enhancing implants(sorry, no length and girth upgrades available), and get out there soldier. You wanna live forever?--Alex Porter
The overall game rating PS received was a whopping 5 stars. This is actually great considering Maxim is known for being picky on their choice in game reviews.
Does this mean we can be considered cool now, Hamma?
