    A beautiful action adventure that incorporates a dash of RPG and a dose of fighting game, Eve of Extinction suffers from a dull, weak plot.
  2. GameSpy

    Poor sound effects, sometimes misused, uninteresting music, bad voice acting, merely decent graphics, the same enemies over and over again, only seven and a half hours of gameplay, and the game still manages to be fun.
  3. Media and Games Online Network

    Enemies should have been varied, the game should have been longer, the complaints go on and on, yet EOE can still prove to be fun.

    With its bleak environments, surreal plot and button mashin' gameplay, Eve of Extinction is one big mess. [May 2002, p.106]

    I liked it the best because to get the full effect you have to play the game again and again to achieve full completion.

    Aside from the bad AI, the game isn't that bad. The weapon designs are really cool and who needs good sound when you're having fun slashing agents?… Expand

    The game is just too freakin repetative. I mean really u kill a boss u get a new weapon you kill another boss you get another weapon. Graphics are good and the puzzles make the game challenging.… Expand
