Brief synopsis of Urban Chaos: Riot Response

Urban Chaos: Riot Response is a combat game in which you play the role of Nick Mason (what, him out of Pink Floyd? - Ed.) a member of the dynamically-named T-Zero - an elite section of law enforcement, wouldn't you know. The last line of defence in case of trouble in the towns and cities, T-Zero is trained to deal with all aspects of urban unrest. And boy, do they have their work cut out for them in Urban Chaos: Riot Response!

Your character is recruited by T-Zero and thrown in at the deep end, charged with taking on and defeating the gangs who are bringing the city to its knees. T-Zero's great strength is taking the fight to the enemy. Weapons, though not too popular with civilians, are essential to restoring order. Weapons issued as standard (side arms, stun guns, smoke grenades etc.) are not the only ones you get to use: walking over floored and formerly tooled-up gang members enables you to pick up their weapon too - and that could be anything from a meat cleaver to a circular saw. It's not all about carnage however; sometimes a non-lethal takedown is a good move, in order to gather intelligence from surviving gang members.

Urban Chaos: Riot Response has a BBFC18 rating and rightly so. The combat gets really brutal at times, and the language is largely fruity too. Not for the kids, this one. But then again, the kids are probably out there doing this for real anyway!

Rated - 4 starsExcellent Action Game

A customer from Edinburgh, Scotland , 15/08/2006

Fantastic First person shooter i was blown away with the brilliant visuals and suberb gameplay. You play Nick Mason, part of an elite squad, T-Zero, to take down a gang terrorising the city. The game has a nice selection of weapons and varied tasks to complete over 16 levels. You also have the use of a riot shield, a fantastic addition, which has been implemented very well, It really helps you feel like you are part of this character rather than just your typical hero. Urban Chaos is a quite an arcady game, similar to Timesplitters with its different objectives but in my opinion more enjoyable. Highly recommended, perfect for rental!.

an excellent first person shooter where you are nick mason an ex marine returned to the mean streets. good graphics excellent weaponry if you want to wipe out the crims with a minigun to the accompaniment of flashing disco lights on you go. easily acheviable goals and objectives. well worth a shot

This game is nothing special. A first-person shooter, with little depth. When reading a preview, it was supposed to be a emergancy services based game, but is nothing of the sort. You have control over some, firemen, paramedics, other police but its very limited. The main feature of the game is a bullet/bomb proof riot shield, and that you can arrest people. It seemed very like SWAT. Global police. Just a bog standard shooter, rent don't bother buying.
