I had a lot of fun playing this game, which has a lot of good things and a fair amount of bad things in it as well. Let's start with the bad. When you get up close to a lot of bugs at once, or there is a lot of dust flying around in the game, it kills the framerate. this happens a couple times in a few different levels. also, trying to get into a multiplayer game is harder than some of the missions in the actual game itself. When you try to get into a game that has 7 out of 8 players, it's generally full, and it tells you this only after you've waited through the long loading time of getting into the game. after that, it sends you back to the main menu, which you have to sit through another little loading screen for. this can just get tedious. but, if you do happen to get into a good multiplayer game (most of which are co-op mode), it can be very fun. the bug swarms in single player are awesome to watch, and i really dont see why most game reviewers dont like this game. i have lots of fun with it, because the frame rate issue rarely happens. i recommend this game to anyone that likes [nearly] meaningless violence and bug guts.

While the game maintains loyalty mainly to the Verhoven flick, the game is the closest thing you to an interactive bug hunt, fans of the actual book Maruder suits are going to get dissapointed, but if the suit dynamics alone are what you are looking for in a game than i suggest that you'd buy tribes: vengeance (no bugs though).

I love this game. It is the best game i have played. There are some pros and cons(mostly pros).The graphics are great and you can have so many guns and the ammount of ammo it lets you have is amazing now for the cons. The storyline is too short, I wish there were more levels also there are some bugs that take like 30 minutes to kill like the adault plasma bug at the end of level 4. I recomend this game to any sci-fi fan.

Really enjoy this one. Used to play Starship Troopers when it was a board game with dice and charts, much better now. Only problem I have with it is the nearly undestrucable Royals. Need to increase the hit zone for thier weak spot, its way to small!!

While this game does have it's shortfalls and I would've rather had the power armor that the first version many years ago promised, I am definately pleased with this version of the game. I have no problems running it on my laptop, and when I'm not out on missions in Iraq all I do is play SST!!! Some of the objectives are a little mindless, go here and push that then blow up some bugs, but the swarm engine and the bugs' AI more than make up for it. I love the weapons and their functions, none is an uber weapon that can do anything and alot of the new bugs actually make sense and some even come from the tv show Roughnecks:Starship Troopers Chronicles, also a good buy.

I bought the game. I installed the game. Looked for an update because for some reason I couldn't see anything in the game, but could open the application. Computer crashes. Go to safe mode uninstall game. Run a couple of virus scans. Computer runs good again after a 24 hour game free on computer.

This game caused my computer to crash it is the only thing I did that whole day that could have anything to do with it. My theory is; Starship Troopers (2005) video-game does NOT work on Windows 7 what so ever. SO I beg you all don't try. Unless you found a way to getting it working... If so let me know please. I couldn't even find the latest update I know there is one out there jsut couldn't get it... for free like it should be that is. Also. The company that made the game. Their customer service sucks. They didn't help me what so ever.

I love Starship Troopers, but this game I can't even play! It's a real downer...

I like this game...alot. It was very intriguing since it piteed you against so many people at once. I speak the truth when I say I felt like I was gonna die with so many enemies in the later missions. IT was NUTS, I recommend it for everyone that loves a challenge and a decent storyline.

This game is entertaining for a couple hours. The multiplayer is entertaining for a couple minutes. There is only a single mp scenario; defend point X. While the "swarm engine" is intriguing, and should prove more so when incorporated into games with more substance, this game is one to pick up used, and will not linger on any serious gamer's shelf for more than a week. Yes, it's an adrenaline fest, but there's little for the mind here. I bought two copies for my son and I, and both are already resold, after a single four hour session. Serious Sam II is more enticing than this boondoggle. That being said, the images and the combat are loads of fun. For a couple hours.

If you want a game where you feel extremely powerful, this is deffinetely it! This game pits you against hundreds of bugs, sometimes with help, sometimes without. The game always has you on your toes, and most the time never has a dull moment.

Pro's: Massive amount of killing, with some hard mobs thrown here and their. Variety of arsenal, and enemies, which you have to pair each other together to be the most effective. Very heart pounding.

Con's: Their are some rather pointless points, and overly lengthened. Sometimes your put against a really easy enemy, that takes forever to kill, which can create a very dull fight. Also some very pointless times, like a door is stuck, so you have to wait for a mechanic to come and fix it, no bugs attack, nothing for you to do, just stand around and wait, pretty pointless.

Overall: Very great game, deffinetely worth buying, and showing off to friend the amount of slaughter you can lay down. I would love to play the Multiplayer, but not enough people really play. I deffinetely suggest this game, specially for its price.

HitGaming and Multigates are thieves. They are charging so much for this game that is no longer supported, matter of fact the company no longer exists. It wasn't a real popular title so how can they justify the outrageous costs? I just hope you people don't purchase this from those guys. Who would pay 50.00+ for this?
