If it is 3D, I am not touching it with a 550 foot pole.

[Rommel]

I concure.

[Klade]

Heh so the same exact game will be its own successor? Find me a marketing person I feel the need to strangle someone ;)

[Twigz'N'Berries]

Yup, this game has been done an injustice in 3D. Maximum Impact was craptacular on all consoles.

Maximum Impact had a few good things going for it. It has potential, I will wait and see before I make final judgement.

[Paranoia]

It was crap. Played it, dumped it.
