There’s a lot to love and hate in this painfully generic shooter

Oct 12, 2009

Armored drop troopers plummet from orbit to do battle with hostile forces on a war-torn planet in Section 8, a sci-fi first-person shooter from developer TimeGate Studios. Unfortunately, despite a few surprisingly fun gimmicks, Section 8 falls short of greatness and winds up playing like a generic cookie-cutter shooter. ...

Section 8 – updated impressions

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a... respawn?

Apr 9, 2009

TimeGate Studios, the developers who soothed many an itchy trigger finger by releasing several Alma-haunting expansions between the release of F.E. A.R. and its recent sequel Project Origin, are setting their FPS sites on their most ambitious project to date.

Timegate Studios aren’t trying to tell a clever story here – although there is a single-player campaign to train you up for the online action. Section 8 has been built around that multiplayer game. ... » Read Full Section 8 preview

Section 8

Keep your eye to the sky. There's a soldier bursting through the atmosphere

Mar 13, 2008

Section 8 may be almost two years out, but our recent look at the game was no less captivating. Without all that much to show Timegate Studios, the indie developers of the popular F.E.A.R. expansions, still managed to make our trigger fingers tremble. To start with, the map in our demo was huge. We didn't get to see it populated, but it looked like it could easily handle a 64+ server count. The goal appeared to be to capture points on the map, ... » Read Full Section 8 preview
