In this first of the highly controversial series (which is actually outlawed in at least two countries), you're a guy who has a run of very bad luck, only to come home to learn you've been evicted, causing you to go off the deep end. You're convinced that everyone is infected by something, and that the local air force base must be the source.

As you undertake to get to the heart of the problem the action picks up right at your little hovel; police and federal agents have you surrounded, and the only way out is through a hail of bullets.

There are only two classes of NPC's: innocents and hostiles. You must eliminate a certain number of hostiles to complete each level, although there is no penalty for injuring innocents.

Additional Game Features:
  • 16 levels in which you encounter the local truck stop, sherriff's station, a parade complete with marching band, an ostrich farm, a bridge, a mineshaft, a salvage yard, the Thunderbird Trailer Park, a train station, a construction site, the ghetto, the city, Central Park, a huge industrial complex, and finally, the Air Force Base.
  • Includes a level Editor.
  • Your default weapon is a sub-machine gun with unlimited ammo, but your extensive arsenal includes flame throwers, shotguns, landmines, hand grenades, molotov cocktails and more.
  • Single player action, plus multiplayer up to 16 players, and four additional Challenge games including Timed levels, Goal levels, Capture the Flag levels, and Checkpoint levels.
  • Arcade style third-person/isometric shooter action.

This game is pretty sick, but it also offers loads of some really stress-rleaving fun.

And it's just a good shooter too.

lol, this game does have some fun sound effects, quite a few of them from earlier games, as I suspect you already know!

Turn out the lights, crank up the speakers, and revel in the glory that is the soundscape of this game. The earth is thirsty. "I CAN'T FEEL MY LEGS!!!"
