Based
off the science fictional world from the minds of Kevin Eastman and Simon
Bisley, Heavy Metal Geomatrix puts you on a team of humans enhanced
by nanotechnology, allowing humans to live and fight in cyberspace with extraordinary
abilities and weapons. You play one of four teams, each team
comprising of three special soldiers. Depending on your playing style, you'll
either play the all-around leader type, the speedy female, or the big-ass
grunt
that can punch you into next year. The purpose? To dominate cyberspace by
taking on each team in a fight to the finish... and most of the time, it won't
exactly be a one on one fair fight. With a title like Heavy Metal Geomatrix
you expect some crazy character designs and the game doesn't disappoint as
all the characters look like mutant rejects from Anthrax. Lots of leather,
chains, spikes, and other assorted imagery give the game a very unique look.
Stages aren't exactly complex but they're pretty well designed and the game
runs at a pretty smooth frame rate most of the time. There are instances of
slowdown when a lot of explosions that occur but it's only a brief moment
in a otherwise nice looking
game.
