LAN Addict sends word that they have thrown up a review on 4X Studios' first person shooter, Iron Storm. Here's something to chew on:

Now when I say "sneak deep into enemy territory", that is simply the mission given to you in the beginning of the game. The actual game play is not really about stealth, it's about using your massively powerful weapons to kill everyone around you. This game has the atmosphere of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, but the action value of Doom or Serious Sam. Once you receive your orders (destroy Baron Nikolai and his forces) and leave your home base via the clearly marked exit, you begin your task of mowing down countless enemy soldiers and exploring the large intricate levels. Occasionally you get orders over your headset, but they come few and far between. You are basically on your own in this mission.
