Aaah... Strife. I remember playing demo long time ago when it came out, I was amazed by things they done to regular FPS, while all those features by now are not that impressive still I must admit it was tough for the time when it came out. Besides the game have different endings depending on how you make your way through. Interesting plot and good atmosphere, a cross between medieval times and high-tech aliens catched perfectly. What unfortunate that the game is quite short and some maps are really weird and unlogical but still nicely done considering it's just a good old doom engine. Strife pushed engine to the limits even hexen did not reach. Too bad the game came out too late. Nevertheless I think it's a great game, definetly had features ahead of it's time. Many modern games don't even attempt to implement some of those which Strife had. Good game and definetely worth playing despite it's age.
