    For less than a buck per level, Fire Warrior is a bargain. [May 2004, p.74]

    40K fans will probably not regret picking this up, and run and gun action fans will definitely get more out of it than gamers looking for something to present them with a major challenge.

    Comparisons with "Halo" are inevitable. Unfortunately, Fire Warrior shows how developers can steal elements from superior games, while fundamentally misunderstanding why they worked so well in the first place. [Nov 2003, p.101]

    This cheap PlayStation 2 port carries none of the punch that can be found in the tabletop game due to a positively antediluvian design that sees you running down an endless succession of corridors hunting for keys.

    The thing is that this game provides all the things you need for a decent FPS, it just doesn't have much of the stuff that makes it brilliant. That said, some parts of the gamecreated a great atmosphere and I feel that the critics are far too used to top end games. For AUS$20 this is a great get.… Expand

    Even with the good background of the Warhammer 40000 universe, the game cannot "capture" the player and lack of atmosphere. The graphic level is only standard and the view distance always near. Very poor sounds. Poor AI, the standard DOOM type game.… Expand
