Breach Review

Breach is a first-person shooter multiplayer video game developed by Atomic Games. It was released on January 26, 2011 for the PC and Xbox. It can be described best as Counter-Strike with a limited destructible enviornment and a useless cover-system.
During release the game featured 5 maps with a fairly large size and four game modes: Infiltration, Convoy, Retrieval and Team Deathmatch. The game can support games of a maximum 16 people which is pretty lame if you ask me and Breach also has an XP system that allows players to purchase gadgets, such as bionic ears and remote motion sensors.
If you ask me, this is the poor man's Bad Company 2 as it only costs 15$ or around 800 microsoft points. The price is the only strong point of the game as for this low price you get a full game to play online with your friends and a solid but easily forgetable and generic shooter.  The community is also friendly and seemingly devoid of hackers and cheaters.
The developers promised to heavily support it after release. A free map-pack consisting of 3 new maps has already been anounced. Let's remember that not even Starcraft could have gotten as far as it did without developer support with the release of countless patches.
The game doesn't really shine when you think that it's made in 2011, by the time games like Bad Company 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops are dominating the market. It's solid and it could get really far so my final say is that if you have some extra cash to spend, thought Counter Strike: Source really didn't do it for you but you are still waiting for that sequel to Counter Strike this could be a good investment.
As in any shooter there are countless of hours to loose here and helping developers like these would really make the gaming world, a better world.

As usual reviewers from Youtube did all sorts of videos regarding it:
First the Pixel Enemy Review.




This reviewer kinda of bashed it but I thought I should show you guys the dark side:


And lastly a rather positive view...


I'll let you based on these videos decide if this game is worth it, see you next time.

  10. I know this game tried hard to surpass BC2, but that game really wasn't *just* about destructible environments. Maybe I'll give Breach a chance though if it goes down in price.
