I'm always up for this kind of valentine to the hardcore PC gamer - a high-end exercise in system stretching, à la Giants or Sacrifice. Alas, like Incoming (1998), AquaNox is ultimately better at showing off the capabilities of your machine than the game-design capabilities of its developers.
As a sequel to the uninspired 1997 sub shooter Archimedean Dynasty, AquaNox brings back Emerald "Dead Eye" Flint, a sort of Han Solo of the deep sea, only boring. The story is mildly compelling, but the dialogue is delivered via poorly drawn cartoon characters and truly god-awful voice actors.
