I thought the premise was interesting enough to warrant picking this one up out of the ol’ bargain bin. That was a mistake. Save your money for something better, like, say, elective exploratory prostate surgery. Without anaesthetics. I wasn’t expecting great graphics, or even gameplay, really. The engine is pretty dated, and doesn’t look like it was that great to begin with. Enemy AI wasn’t too bad- slightly reminiscent of Half-Life, the way they used grenades. What kept me going was the story behind the action- I was simply interested in seeing how it was executed, and how it would unfold. Sadly, IronStorm crashed to the desktop after fifteen minutes of gameplay, on the average- sometimes much, much more often. Maddening! Patching didn’t help. I also found that patching it eliminated cheat codes and trainer access (I was playing for the entertainment of the story, not the twitchy shooter thrills). IronStorm still crashed all over the place. I gave up on the “alternate history” and thought I’d give the multiplayer facet a try. Interestingly, I didn’t seem to encounter the crashes in multiplayer, but still found it incredible that the multiplayer spawns players with no weapon selected! You’ve got a crappy default pistol, but you have to always select it at spawn, or you’re defenseless. Add that little gem to the usual mix of spawn campers on public servers, and it gets really irritating in a hurry. Bottom line: It had a lot of promise, but it’s junk. Sorry, Dreamcatcher, you’ve published a nightmare. This game stinks.

This is the latest in a line of boring 1st person shooters that attempt to approximate war. You will spend much of your time with Iron Storm reloading saved games. Many levels actually require you to die several times in order to reveal where the bad guys are. Save, get shot, reload, takeout sniper, repeat. How is this fun?BTW, enough with the game reviews by people who couldn’t get the game working. Your computer ineptitude is not relevant to the rest of us.

I really like this game. It’s actually the first, real alternate history first/third-player shooter ever. The graphics are wonderful, I just can’t wait for the whole release! The demo is somewhat buggy, but they will surely fix them in the final one.

My computer exceeds system requirements for the game and I could barely get passed the intro screen before I got kicked back to my desktop. I tried reinstalling without any positive success and have neither the time or energy to mess with patches or customer support (based on earlier reviews it sounds like it would’nt do much good anyway). No, I think I will just return this “game” and avoid future Dreamcatcher titles.
