Summary: Frankenstein Lovers Unite!!
Review: Although I have not actually played this game yet, from what I have heard it is a very wierd, but fun, game. It's basically a re-run of Frankenstein. Your this looney-tuney scientist named Rex Chance, and you must use your resources(gas, coal, DNA, etc.) to create bio-genetically engineered freaks of nature and then make them kill each other. For example, I am thinking of creating a lion with the jaws of a crocodile and the tail of a scorpion. This may sound like a boring game if you are in to action/adventure's and stuff like that, but trust me on this. This game is worth a peek, if you have bit of mad scientist in you.

Review: amazing 2 good 2 be true graphics and the storyline is sooooo good that it should be a book! u can build thousands of different animals using the "sigma" technalagy. Also the free downloads like "Insect invasion" and the 10 hidden chararecters are a great addon after u used all the 60 ofered animals. In insect invasion u get (exageration) 1,000 new maps and 50 new creatures I recomend you buy it ...

Review: As a beta tester for the game I can guarantee that you will NOT regret purchasing this title. Relic has a great reputation going with the Homeworld series and they do not disappoint with this winner. Grab the demo [...]. If you want even more info, stop by [...]and take a look around.

Summary: Crazy...
Review: From what I have seen and heard about this game. I think it's going to be awesome. You can combine the attributes of two animals from a selection of 50 different ones and use them any way you want. (No not like that, you sicko!) You want a unit that can burrow underground to hide, pop up, poison an enemy then go back underground? You got it! Just put a scorpion's tail on a lemming's body! Flying sharks? Why not?! I think this game is going to VERY fun.

Summary: RTS Animal Classic
Review: Game type: Inexpendive, resouce gathering, networkable, RTS in very well rendered 3-D person (not fixed isometric).
Re-release date planned for 12/15/2004. Honestly this is really geared for pre-hormonal, but semi-violent teens. If your kids liked Pokemon, they will love this because after extracting the DNA from your travels you can not only combine the body parts of two animals, you can make an army of them and let them loose on your best friend. I think creatures like their pictures taken, as you can zoom in and around models in true 3-D space, and clicking on the camera makes them wiggle more. Combinations are not good/bad, but cost more/less which means the most powerfull player gets grumpy as they can't efford to build until much later in the game, making them vulnerable for attack by any five year old that just likes the way his creatures look. This makes game play more chaotic than any I've seen. Some may find you referring to your blackwidow-armadillo as cute before the day is over.
Cons:
- Proprietary on-line game network (on-line gaming not supported by GameSpy, EA Games, or even MicroSoft Game network).
- AI for the insect invasion mod was never finshed. You can't play against one person and two PC players.
- Not too much social redeming vaue, but if you were looking for that in a video game I would recommend you restart your search. Then again, there's no nudity or sex.
- Insect invasion over plays the value of chitin armor, making them way too strong.
- Limited access to the SDK (Software Development Kit) for developers and people with entirely too much time on their hands to make additional creatures from scratch. I'll bet like any maunufacturing company, they will kill the product line soon, and don't want you making new content w/out paying for it.
Pro:
- Free additional animal skins avaialble for download.
- Free insect skins available for download. (If you've ever wanted to let your son bring bugs in the house, this is the way to do it.)
- Creatures can be made to scale!! Most games/toys will only attempt to do this.
Hints:
1) Get a better video card.
2) Buy more memory or a better processor (Microsoft is even a memory hog with games production too).
3) Yes, if cost is a factor, you can always just turn off the anti-virus and use MS-CONFIG to end all extra tasks.
4) Not everything Relic touches turns to gold (who did they fire after Lords of the Realm III?)
5) Big kids should give a different rating to this than Warhammer 40,000

Summary: Very innovative Game!
Review: I downloaded the demo of this RTS-Game and I must say, it's one of the most exciting and innovative games of the RTS-genre I've seen. The story about the lost father of the main character is not like the epic story Warcraft 3 is based on, but none the less it's very interesting.
But the really interesting aspect of "Impossible Creatures" is the possibility to create an army by mixing the DNA of 50 different creatures (Shobsters for example: a mix of sharks and lobsters). The possibilities of combinations are nearly endless. In Multiplayer you will never meet the same type of army in different games because every player has his own unique army of combined creatures.
Everybody, who's interested in RTS-Games and who wants to play something different than the typical standard-RTS, should order this game.

Summary: Impossible Creatures
Review: I have played hundreds of computer, PS2, and Xbox games, but this is my all time favorite game for any console. You get to combine two animals into one animal with both of their strengths, and no weaknesses. This is fun, but not the the funest part. It is an R.T.S. game much like WarCraft 3 or Army Men R.T.S., and has an ecellent story-line. Now, on Microsoft.com/impossiblecreatures, they have twenty-five more animals to download. Not to mention the fifty animals you get in the game. This is the best game in the world!

Summary: Great game, Freaking Hard
Review: I played this game, LOve it, i was following this game after i beat homeworld; back in the days when it was called Sigma. (which by the way was a much cooler name) I got this game when it came out last year, and i got to say it is really really cool, combining creatures is totally fun, but just like in homeworld, after you beat the first mission it get really freaking hard. well.. maybe after the first island, the second part i can't beat, i try and try. I'm currently trying to get my skills up to snuff by playing against the computer in 'player vs computer' mode. I played a really slow game the other night with a total disadvantage, and ending up playing for 2 hours and 45 minutes, i recorded a demo btw. I won the game, i felt so awesome, i won with a disadvantage and one of my weakest creatures. Since i was playing the free add on, Insect Invasion, i made this crappy army, i dont think i was thinking straight when i combined the Ant with the Termite, making a Termant; i didn't realise they were pretty much the same creature, i was looking for a cheap creature i could manufacture. That was the creature i one the game with. Now i think i'm ready to fianlly beat the second island; i'm so bad at strategy games i know. Only thing is, I wish there were more animals to download, oh well; i guess i'll have to wait for those sweet mods to come out. oh yeah, Shark + Scorpion all the way.

Summary: Preview- Creativity Indeed
Review: I think this is going to be some incredible game.
This game is a 3D RTS game made by Relic. And the best part of the game is that you can combine animal DNA and make some mutant animals. And the number of the unit is limited by player's creativity. And what I like about this game is that it's not some boring old RTS. usually in RTS the things you do is build strutures, mine resources, build units and other stuff, and to win you just need to use your hands faster and build lots of units and destroy other peoples bases. Well this game does not work that way, the units have relations like rock,scissors,papers so one unit can easily konck some units but can be knocked out easily by other units. So you need to be stragical and place and build units carefully, so you get to use your brains more than your hands.
Oh, and this game has some Homeworld's blood in it so if you played homeworld you might find it simliar. This is a game I recommend for RTS lovers.
