This is a very good game.

Written: Jul 14 '00
Pros:Wide variety of ummm EVERYTHING!!!!!
Cons:There are none

This is a very good game. It features customizible controls, different system settings, a large array of weapons and charactors, around 30 levels, excellent multiplayer, K-A graphics, plus a single player -multi-player function. (also known as Skirmish.) The controls can be set to your own unique style. Like me most people use a mouse to shoot and look around. Plus there is also two different ways to move forward, back, and side-to-side. There is ASWD, or the arrow keys. Very awesome! You can change the way that the game is played. Do it by changing things like screen size, Brightness, sound quality, and game speed. The weapons include:
The Gauntlet - A small spiral saw with a electrical charge, Very powerful.
Machinegun - Also very powerful, it uses ammo pretty fast and is used to put a large array of bullets in a small area.
Shotgun - My personal Favorite, this double-barreled shotgun is a very powerful blast, most effective at close range, Reloads fast.
Grenade Launcher - A big step from the shotgun, now we are getting in the big boys. This incredible weapon shoot a indecianary grenade with a high blast area.
Rocket Launcher - Completely awesome. This weapon shoot a high powered rocket right at the enemies, I shouldn't say that because it doesn't heat seek, but still, it has shrapenel which will also hurt the enemies.
Lightning gun - Awesome. Short range but is the coolest looking of all guns. It shoots a high powered electrical charge straight out.
Railgun - Shoots a very high powered depleted uranium slug at the enemies. Most accurate of all of the guns, it is usually used for far away sniping, and long distance slow combat.
Plasme Gun - Some may know the BFG10K. Well think of this as it's little brother. If you have never heard of the BFG10K read on.
BFG10K - This gun is the ultimate of all of the guns in the Arena Eternal. This gun uses blaster cells to shoot a very fast (and large) blast at the enemies. Although in few levels, it is still the greatest weapon. The gun is also powerful enough to destroy enemies even when it bypasses them.


The most well known of the charactors include Klesk, Anarki, Tank Jr., Slash, Patriot, and the main charactor (Watch the beginning movie) Sarge.


Levels, ooooh, all of these levels were very well though out and made very well. There is around 30 of the levels, hopefully enough to satisfy your little, black, cold hearts.

The multiplayer is amazing. and it even includes ping time.

So this game is the perfect game. For all Computer gamers. Take out your frustrations, Have fun, Earn medals, oh yeah medals.

Okay here's the run down.
Frags ----- You get one when you get 100 Frags.
Accuracy -- Get over 50% accuracy in any Arena.
Gauntlet -- Get one when you frag someone with the Gauntlet.
Perfect --- Get one when you don't die in any one Arena.
Impressive- Get one when you shoot something 2 times in a row with a Railgun.
Excellent - 2 frags in 2 seconds.
