About this product

Product Information

Starship Troopers is similar to the controversial 1959 science-fiction novel by Robert Heinlein, in which troopers don powered armor and use advanced weapons to combat an evil, arachnid-like alien race commonly known as the "bugs." Nineteen types of creepy-crawlies show up in this first-person shooter, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Players battle through 12 indoor and outdoor levels, including a secret laboratory, bug nests, abandoned mines, and outposts, to relieve planet Hesperus from the insect invaders.<br><br>Blast up to 300 enemies at once with one of seven weapons, including a nuke launcher and intelligence grenades. Join the special forces of the mobile infantry as Marauder Zero Six in the single-player campaign mode, or start a bug-killing frenzy on the Internet. Up to eight people can team up online or by LAN and play through three deathmatch, co-op, or team deathmatch levels. After completing a single-player combat mission, the level may be re-played to generate a score and rank according to performance. Bonus items may be unlocked when certain conditions in the game are met.

  • I'm doing my part, are you?

    This game is fun but does have some flaws. The game is poorly balanced, some bugs are no threat and others can kill you in a few hits (Looking at you tiny plasma shotgun bugs). The game is trivially easy in some parts (bossfights), and crushingly difficult in other parts. (Certain hold out against swarm objectives at least in normal mode). I love it though, and if you play it on easy mode or are willing to play the game not exactly how it's supposed to be played (find chokepoints and areas where you can shoot the bugs but they can't reach you), it can be lots of fun. Some people complain about the graphics but you have to understand that every polygon in this game was sacrificed for the bugs. Yes characters have no facial animations and the levels can feel kind of empty but some modern games cant fit 300 enemies on screen at once so you have to accept the tradeoff. One more thing, this is actually pretty important, you should only buy physical copies if you want to collect them as you can download the game free online.
