60 Second Review of…

TRIBES 2

Tom's Review: The new game types, gear loadouts, vehicles, and weapons should offer a lot of variety. The bots should make it a viable single player game. The overview screen should allow for some great coordinated team action. But I wouldn't know, since I have no patience with framerates this choppy and sluggish. Should graphics this ugly be this slow? Even Interplay's Giants with its huge sloppy ambitious gorgeous graphics engine seems to run better than TRIBES 2. The surest way to kill a game about men flying with jetpacks is to make it with a ponderous bogged-down engine that isn't very attractive. Wake me when the last patch gets here.
