Do you want to know a really disappointing game? Midway’sArea 51for the PlayStation 2. As well as having David “should never try to act or breathe” Duchovny in it, the game was just horrendous for starting off excellently, then devolving into incredibly dull, bland and uninspired FPS pap that had no sense of charm or fun whatsoever. So what is it about Midway’s newest shooter bearing theArea 51moniker that deserves interest? Well, first of all, the demo for it on Xbox Live is actually pretty good. This new trailer forBlacksite: Area 51also promises much shallow but satisfying shooting action.This is, however, a Midway game, and the chaps at Midway are masters of hit-and-miss. It’s a toss up at this point as to whether or notBlacksitecan cut the mustard on a console already crammed with first person shooters, but it’s certainly one to keep an eye on. If anything, the mindless blasting ofStarship Troopersstyle aliens is always good for a quick laugh. Is anybody looking forward to this one, or are we skeptical of the chance of seeing a goodArea 51game?
