Yesterday I stumbled upon the Left Behind games website to find that they were giving away a single game from their store for free! My eye was immediately drawn to Left Behind 3: Rise of the Antichrist, as I wasn't even aware that they made a sequel to Eternal Forces. After a 1.3 gb download, I was ready to play!
This looks promising.
I soon found myself on the title screen, watching terrible CGI versions of rennaisance devotional artwork...
...followed a moment later by a timeline of US history.
I'm in for a treat.
I am currently playing through the tutorial, so i will not go into gameplay until I have something better to say. However, I will run through the highlights. One thing I am rather enjoying so far is how every unit in the game has a life story accessable from their unit profile. For example, one of the units was a 16 year old who was corrupted as a youth by the godless influence of... THE BEATLES! Another robbed a bank before becoming a member of a group of 'Satanist Skinheads' while in prison. Another source of entertainment I have found is the text in the screen between missions. Rather then describing them, I will leave them here for all to see.
Well. I'm convinced. Praise Jebus.
(Edit: If you need me to explain why the above is a downright rediculous arguement, feel free to ask.)
I shall end this post here. If this garners any interest, I will continue.
