It’s got a good story, some neat characters, some nifty sneaking around stuff, team based gameplay, tons of explosions and weapons, and it’s all wrapped up in one of the prettiest little graphics packages I’ve seen in a while.
The game tries to master many different aspects of the genre but the number of bugs lets it down badly.

Great game because of the atmosphere, the nice guns and the detailled graphics. Lots of lampposts, beautiful harbour with all the nice sounds that belongs to it, nice village with a toilet outside where you can hear the crickets. Great great atmosphere if you can feel it.

I know this game is old as fck but god damn.....
Here are the pros and cons in my absolute honest opinion.
cons:
-bad dialogue, even for a simple shooter
-many things didn't have an actual texture to the like cars and such, simply slapped a skin onto a box shape and called it a day
-control are absolutely atrocious
pros:
-pretty interesting and decent plot tbh
-amazing arsenal
-cool characters (though you could also kind them boring, depends on your own personality)
-Cool level designs for a '03 game
-actually not bad graphics overall, but pathetic compared to others of it's time
I'll give this an 8/10 for old times sake, normally it'd be at 5 or 6.

A more action heavy, AI driven combat system and a more robust command and control mechanism could have propelled the title into greatness if the story were a little better and the physics were a little polished.
A forthright and adolescent-minded FPS, embellished with technical fireworks of debatable value.
An ambitious but seriously flawed shooter. Though much of its gameplay is otherwise decent, Devastation is ultimately plagued by too many incomplete concepts and annoying issues to recommend it.
The real lesson here is that there's a place for a run-of-the mill shooter. Just keep those aspirations modest. Throw in teammates and base defense, and you can throw your entire project into turmoil.
Developed by Arush Entertainment, this urban-themed FPS game makes a few stabs at greatness but ultimately misses its mark by, oh, about a mile.
Devastation has many cool aspects but always stays average. In the first hours, the graphics and atmosphere are striking and the action is satisfying. But you can find too many game-breaking bugs, repetitive gameplay and the story is beyond dull. Sad, because it had a lot of potential!
