Omi's Video Game Vault: Martian Gothic Unification
0Released for the Playstation 1 in 2001. Developed by Coyote Developments and published by Take-Two Interactive. An ambitious yet flawed survival-horror game. It apparently was originally going to be a point-n-click style adventure game before being switched over. You have 3 characters that you control and switch to at any time: Kenzo,Matlock,and Karne. They can trade items via the game's vac-tube system,but can never meet each other directly or "Unification" will occur and you'll get a Game Over. The main problem of this game is the enemies. You cannot kill them permanently,only down them temporarily. This is a major problem in a game where you're conserving your limited ammo and health items. It kinda feels like Resident Evil 0 with the character swapping,but it feels like it takes the worst aspects of it and amplifies them. Played up to releasing Karne from his airlock. Oily Rag. I like Oily Rag.
