EchoPlayer
Review by Kyle Warner, with screen shots. "Planetside is not a great game. It is a great idea.
But the idea is carried out poorly. It is deep. It has somewhat good replay value. It has lots of
variety. But it just lacks reason, appearance, style, and finesse." Score: 3 out of 6.

Review by Thomas McDonald. "Planetside could grow into a more interesting game, but the
