Assault Cube

Pros:

Open source, Small install, Portable versions out there, good graphics, fast paced.

Cons: Limited weapons, Limited single player options.

This week I am covering Assault Cube. Assault Cube, and please note this game has nothing to do with the horror films also named Cube. Instead Assault Cube is named because of the way there maps are made. This game is  a fast passed Area style FPS, similar to the unreal and quake series games.  Game modes include death match, team death match, and one shot one kill. this game is very fast passed and each round lasts about 10 minutes total. The single player options include an option to set the level of the Bots Ai so if your not that good of a shooter you can still find a satisfying level that will not make your game play experience fun and enjoyable.  The download is small at only 40 megs ( install is about 55 megs) so it will fit on any size HD. there is customizable support for all video screen sizes, and settings. also the guys at portable apps are working on making a probable version. and while there is not a lot of maps for that one yet it is still in development so there will probly be more once there done.

There is some down sides to the game however. There is only 4 guns that come with the game( geriatric assault rifle, sub machine gun, sniper rifle, and shotgun) plus a pistol, and if you want more you will need to mod them and add them in your self. The single player mode has no story mode or any thing like that so if your some one that likes to have a reason why your running around killing people you will not find it here. Also the Model selection is limited with only about 5 models which are all the same base model and uniform just different colors on them.

Over all this game is fun and fast paced if you looking for a area style game to blow some time on I say get this game. It will help fill in some unused time that can go toe to toe with the big boys. But if your looking for more then just run and gun or not into the area style games then this one will not only leave you feeling like your unfulfilled but might turn you off from the style altogether.
