Review:

Alien Shooter: Vengeance is a game in the same vein as Crimsonland or Smash TV. There's an incredible amount of onscreen enemies coming at you from all directions and you're the guy in the middle trying to survive. The main differentiating feature is a campaign mode that has you cleaning out alien-infested bases and caves and locating secret stashes of equipment. This is where the most of the RPG mechanics can be found. During the campaign, you will be able to develop which weapons your character excels at using, as well as enhancing other attributes (such as speed or durability). You will also accumulate money that you can use at kiosks that allow you to buy and sell weapons, ammo, armor, and other items. Buying back occurs at 100% of the value of the items, so you can basically customize your character .
There's five types of weapons: Pistols, Shotguns, Machine Guns, Rocket/Grenade Launchers, and Power Arms (Flame Throwers/Lasers). Each type performs somewhat differently, with some types having more than one kind of weapon, so this introduces a bit of variety into play.

Conclusion:

Alien Shooter: Vengeance is nothing to write home about, but it does have quite a bit of visceral action as you gun down seemingly endless amounts of slavering aliens. It's a $20 game but, rather than being an excellent deall, it's more like that's about what the game is worth.
