Action games tend to get stale rather quickly. Especially now, when third-person explode-a-thons rule the marketplace. Developers need to come up with ways to set them apart. That, or go the traditional route and just do it better than anyone else does. Look at God of War. It didn't really do anything new, but it offered a wild degree of polish and refinement.
In the case of Rogue Trooper, developers shake things up a bit. It's still a straightforward action game, but it offers the right blend of stealth and innovative weapon management to keep things fresh. And it all takes place in a distinct future filled with alien landscapes, genetic freaks and high-tech hardware. The setting actually does quite a lot to lend the game a unique flare. And the story, while simple, does a decent job of keeping your interest throughout the adventure.
The whole affair takes place during a futuristic war between the Norts and Southers. The Norts eventually gain the upper hand during the conflict, and the Southers have to come up with something drastic to shift the war in their favor. They decide to modify human beings to create Genetic Infantryman. These super soldiers benefit from superhuman strength and resistance to the toxic atmosphere of Nu Earth, their native planet. On the eve of a massive campaign against the Norts, the GIs suffer from a betrayal that almost wipes them out. Only a handful survive and are left on the battlefield to fend for themselves.
The game follows the exploits of a GI known only as the Rogue Trooper. He survives the GI massacre and sets out to find who orchestrated the betrayal. What makes this game different, and therefore better than many other action efforts, deals strictly with the way you use weapons and equipment. To put it simply, the consciousness of three dead soldiers possesses most of your equipment. See, each genetic soldier comes with a little chip that stores his or her skills and personality. If killed, another soldier can rip it out, equip it within 60 seconds, and form a symbiotic bond. That's how Rogue Trooper winds up with the company of three GIs.
And they each have a different voice and personality, lending this solo action jaunt a bit of a squad-based feel. It's not, of course, since you can't control these soldiers directly, but it helps make the game feel different. Cooler still, each of these dead GIs performs vital combat functions. You first attach a soldier by the name of Gunmar who ends up handling your weapons. He helps you reload when out of ammo and tracks enemy targets to improve accuracy. You can even place Gunmar on the ground and let him act as an independent turret. This works incredibly well, as it acts as backup when outnumbered or you can use it as a distraction when trying to be sneaky.
Bagman, the second guy you find, rides in your high-tech backpack. He can manufacture new weapons and upgrades using scrap you find scattered throughout the game. Scrap is basically money in Rogue Trooper, so it really helps to find as much as possible. Having said that, the game is entirely too generous on standard difficulty. You will always have enough scrap for ammunition, grenades or whatever upgrade you wish to purchase. It's a simple matter of choosing what you want from the menu and buying it. Still, it's a cool idea. And having your "intelligent" backpack inject you with drugs when you sustain damage is undeniably groovy.
