  • Abstract:  Created by Raven, Singularity doesn’t try to be too clever for its own good but rather, creates an addictively entertaining first person shooter that is reminiscent of game such as Bioshock, Half-life and F.E.A.R. Set in a pseudo universe where Russia...

  • Abstract:  When this game landed on my desk I hadn’t even heard of it before. Considering that Activision is quite well known for blowing their own horn, it was an understatement to say that I wasn’t expecting too much from Singularity. However, despite the low-k...

  • Technically, Singlularity does have some failings. The AI, for example, can be very predictable. Mutants generally run at you as fast as they can, chasing you wherever you go - you'd expect that from mutants - but soldiers will sometimes do the same a...

  • You may have seen it all before, but through great variation and pacing, Singularity manages to always entertain. And if you can resist using Deadlocks at every opportunity, you'll also find there's plenty of challenge. More Games ReviewsPrince of Int...

  • It could have all gone wrong so easily and despite taking ideas from more advanced and progressive games, Singularity presents itself with a some truly enjoyable ideas and gameplay. Not the total car crash we were expecting and very nearly edging towar...

  • While Singularity reuses a couple of FPS staples it's certainly not a bland affair. If you can look past the corny storyline you'll discover a game world dripping with detail and supplying truckloads of commie blasting, monster hunting, time travellin...

  • Ability to reverse and fast forward time, upgradeable weapons, well paced, fun and engaging
  • Dated graphics, glitches in texture loading, weak enemy AI
  • Singularity is not a revolutionary FPS game nor is it the best looking game but it is certainly fun. From the moment you start, its just really hard to let go as there never really is a boring moment. There's always something or the other happening and...

  • Singularity klaut bei vielen Verwandten, macht dabei aber nichts so gut wie die großen Vorbilder. Leider verkommt das Manipulieren der Zeit schnell zur Nebensächlichkeit, so dass man es letztlich nur noch einsetzt, wenn man muss. Bis eine Ballerei dies...
