On the control side, Jedi Knight adds subtle additions that are inexplicably neglected in other first-person shooters. And you can really jump in the game, making it possible to move just about anywhere without feeling frustrated because you can't get up on a seemingly one-foot ledge. Finally, there's the story. And in doing so, it came up with what was arguably the best single-player game since Doom. Interplay Productions Review and Demo A surprise contender for Game of the Year was Interplay's Fallout, which earned some vehement support from many of our in-house judges and contributors.
Fallout deserves more attention than it has received.
Unfortunately, there are a few design problems and bugs that hamper the game's enjoyment. But it is such an epic and an original experience that these problems are easily overlooked. Hopefully, Interplay will use the engine in future endeavors. Go to the Genre Awards GameSpot is a CNET Networks Media Property. Inc. All rights reserved.
