ideus writes "Oni is one of the best games I've ever played. It is similar to tomb raider, the way you view your character, but also similar to Unreal. You use the mouse for the character to look around and you use keys to move your character, punch, kick, and shoot. The graphics in this game are unbelievable. There are many different weapons, one flaw is that you can only carry one weapon at a time, you can carry many ammo clips for different weapons with you. Another thing that I don?t really care about is that it is very difficult to punch and kick, since you move your character with the ?W?,?A?,?S?, and ?D? keys it is extremely hard to use the ?F? and ?C? buttons which are used for punching and kicking, even though you can change the keys it would also be difficult (you can shoot with the mouse and punch, but if you are holding a weapon you can?t punch with the mouse so you have to press the ?F? button). The hand to hand combat is really well set up, you can punch, kick, throw, and do other moves towards other ememies. For a beta version of this game it is outstanding. I will have another article once i finish the game, I?m at the 5th level... :-)
