In the fall of last year, I had the opportunity to do an extended preview of New World Interactive‘s Insurgency – and was, to put it mildly, not very impressed. Insurgency follows in the footsteps of a great heaping mass of cookie-cutter tactical class-based multi-player shooters, and did so with very little in the way of originality or appeal.
And so after four months of work, on Wednesday 22 January, New World Interactive released Insurgency into one of the most crowded and competitive markets in the industry. Does Insurgency have what it takes to make more than a fleeting impression?
In short, the answer is still a no, albeit a far less resounding no.
