How Metascores Are Calculated
|
The futuristic tale of a bitter war between two rival factions battling for a series of vital colony worlds. On one side is the mighty Earth Empire which for centuries has plundered the natural resources of the Sol system, and now must take from others to sustain itself. Their opponents, the League of Free Worlds. A small group of colony worlds fighting for their independence from the Empire. In Colony Wars there is no good or evil. For each side has its own just reasons for committing to war. However, desperation can make man do the unthinkable, and neither side will ever be able to plead innocence... [SCEE]

Game Revolution
Using graphics that are (pardon the pun) light years ahead of the competition, Colony Wars has the best graphics ever seen on the Playstation to date. Graphics aren't all, however, and Colony Wars is not just another pretty boy. With gameplay as fun and addictive as any other good game, Colony Wars is the brightest star in the galaxy.

Gaming Age
The sense of actually taking part in the various missions is second to none and is what truly separates Colony Wars from the rest of the so-called competition... It's easily the best shooting game available on the PlayStation so far.

GamePro
The kind of high-quality game that's worth buying the day it's released.

You simply won't find a better space-shooter/sim on the market. This game's got it all: great plot, great missions, great sound and great fun! Psygnosis has got my vote for best PSX developer for 1997!

PSX Nation
Clearly the best space shooter ever.

Electric Playground
Despite a few imperfections, a work of art. And like the best that Psygnosis has brought us, it is a title that every PlayStation owner should acquire and cherish.

IGN
The game has an incredible sense of scale and space, so that you really feel like you're out there, right in the middle of a series of incredible battles... Brilliant. Awesome. Spectacular. Trouser-creamingly good... Best PlayStation action game yet.

Electronic Gaming Monthly
Only Psygnosis could bring a sci-fi flight sim to the consoles and make it fun. [Jan 2004, p.188]

These breakthrough graphics also add to the enjoyment of the Colony Wars experience in terms of gameplay, because the stunning attention to detail throws you into the battle like you wouldn't believe.

GameShark
The sound on this game is rad, it has that THX thing going on, too bad the music itself is cheesy (there is just something about symphony music that makes me itch).

All Game Guide
Graphically speaking, this game is an excellent bit of "eye-candy"... The only real problem with the game is that it is occasionally hard to understand what is required to complete some missions.

GameSpot
Plotline aside, Colony Wars delivers the real experience with its spectacular cinematic graphics.
