Awesome, awesome and awesome again.

The Good
One of my favorite first person shooters, Rise of the Triad went somewhat unnoticed in the gaming community, despite having a better engine than Doom (faster and looks better) and excellent gameplay.

The 3D engine is fast and fluid and looks very good, especially when compared with other so-called 2.5D games. The sound effects are well rounded and the gameplay is simply fun, fun, fun.

Not to mention the ingenius God- and Dog-modes, the awesome weaponry and seemingly infinite gameplay.

All and all, this is a great game.

The Bad
It may not be the best game on Earth, but it's damn near flawless.

The Bottom Line
A great first person shooter you shouldn't miss.
