What more could you want? Funky army-style music, 3D card support, 3D sound card support and force feedback (for those that like to waggle)- you got it. Watch out for a November release and I'll promise to watch out for it at the ECTS show in London this September. Personally I can't wait to give this one another go and in the meantime be sure to check out the shots and artwork that Rage Software let me have in exchange for a few pints (of beer that is).

  • It's a simplistic and back to basics shoot 'em up modernised with a 3D engine from Rage Software.
  • Expendable has lot's of blood in it.
  • If Rage Software can handle their games only half as well as they can handle their beer then they're on to a winner with Expendable.
  • By supporting 3D cards, 3D sound cards, LAN's and force feedback sticks- only the wonder-bra can boast to raising more eyebrows.
  • I think I saw chunks of aliens' splatter across the screen a few times in similar fashion to the cheesy film Jaws 3D, which was nice.
  • The top-down approach to violence was shunted out by the likes of Doom so do we need to go back and get all retro?
  • Newcastle don't have a good football team anymore.
  • It's got a lot of blood in it and Europeans don't like blood- they like sex instead.
  • The story seems a bit on the weak side. Then again who cares?
  • The roaming camera implementation will have to be spot on or else it could become more frustrating that anything else
