not exactly replayable [Posted on 2003-05-25]
This game is very entertaining and absorbing, but it's too short, and not exactly replayble in single player. Multiplayer isn't that great, and it's buggy as heck. However, for a short time during the duration of single player, this will probably be one of your favorite games. The story is great, as are the graphics, and the hit points for enemies are very realistic - shoot a guy in the head and he's dead. I really like the anime style, and the sense of scale while in a Mech.
I would like to see a sequel with better multiplayer and a longer campaign game. That would be awesome.

Amazing Shogage [Posted on 2005-02-01]
This has to be one of the best first person shooters I have ever played. It has more dynamic characters and character interaction than a huge number of other games I have played! It has a raving soundtrack that is bested by none other, and matched by few. The graphics were great and even today don't detract from the gaming experience. The game was released back in the day and /still/ runs on computers, including ones running XP! This is no small feat. You can even find a port by Loki for Linux! Woot! The story and weapon selection are dynamic, deep, and involving to boot. I highly recomend this game.

Perhaps the best game ever [Posted on 2005-07-16]
In my opinion, the fact that this is an action game pulls off quite a lot quickly in the depth department. This is a nude woman all the way through. No, there's no nudity. But that's what it feels like. This action game is free completely of any toughness whatsoever, and indeed, excess emotion and anger will make you lose the game.

This game is often depicted as its own worst enemy. The bad guys will not react if you kill someone standing right next to him/her. However, the insane amount of enemies and their high-damage weapons and lack of health packs makes this all the while. It's worth every penny if you can get it cheap.

The quality of the graphics is so efficient that you would call it pure story. This is the level of being able to pause the game or quit it and walk away from it and consider it for months on end. Just take a look at some of the rooms and corridors and you would call it art.

At the end of intolerance, a new kind of shooter is born. That's how I'd describe Shogo. One level keeps you floating in space on a cruiser, making you question your actions as you walk around with a gun that's loaded. Another makes you feel angry the whole time, then you're required to rescue a cat at the end. Good level design. Other levels require absolutely no weapons fire and just good acting. The amount of choice here for a kind of forced rpg feeling is amazing and breathtaking.

It's forced onto you because you need the right attitude to keep gunning bad guys. And that's what makes this special. That when it's over, you feel like you've cheated to win, and therefore, the story lives on in your world.

I love this game [Posted on 2006-08-09]
This has got to be one of my favorite shooters ever. The story is cool (not to mention hilarious), and the gameplay is nonstop fun. It mixes up the action with both on-foot and mech sequences, and both are different and exciting. I remember having a lot of fun with the multiplayer a few years ago, but good luck finding anyone to play it with these days... Anyway, it's cheap. Buy it.
