I suggest playin the demo first. [ but you've done that already :) ]

If you don't like it or are not impressed with it don't buy it.

[Duneguy]

alright, i am dial up( :(:( ) so i just cant download the demo.. coming from your guysy view is it worth it?, i currently own every dune game i have came across.

[mr_snowman]

I think the game was really fun.Its kinda short but I loved it.the stealth is fun.I would recomend it if you like stealth games like bond games and obviously if you like dune.

[Seal89999]

I would get Emperor. In my opinion and many otheres its the best RTS game out there now. Graphics are great, and all together a great game. :)

[DukeLeto]

Emporer is WAY better than ANY other RTS, and I would recomend it. But if you like RPG's and FPS, go with FH's DUNE if you'e really into Dune. May I suggest Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast as another good FPS.

And now for the critic:

Look, it's alright. I bought it and I enjoyed it for a while. If you're getting it for a low budget price, you won't be disappointed; it's not a bad game. HOWEVER, there are a lot of better games out there in my opinion. Emperor's a good game (especially if you like the Dune story like me) but there are some better 3d strategy games like Earth 2150 and Warcraft III.

Personally, I don't think any 3d strategy game has been truly great because they just require too much of your computer. Actually, I don't think any great RTS games has come out in a while.

[bob_fox]

Woops! I thought this was the Emperor section! Now I've realised it's the FH's Dune section!

Anyway, DON'T GET FH'S DUNE! PLEASE!!! IT'S TERRIBLE!!!

[ThE_CrOw]

Well, the game is worth buying, IF you like adventure games. I'm just very advanced in game, and I can tell ya that is sort of Tomb Raider. Sincerely, I prefer Strategy games, so, I'm more fanatic on Dune II, 2k, Emperor.

But the game is a bit good.

[DjCiD]

Tomb Radier meets Metal Gear is how i discribe it ;D

and i like it, i wished there was more to it but hey its a good game it you like taht sort of stuff

[Ghosty_Square]

Yeah, it's quite good, I think you should get it. Only problem is a bit short. And although it's supposed to be action/adventure, I think it's only action (doesn't require your wits like Tomb Raider).

[DjCiD]

yeah not as much puzzel as tomb raider but a lilte bit ;D

[ThE_CrOw]

Yeah. The puzzle part they forgot to put it, because the only puzzle part that I remember is the one where you have to cross the sand in front of a worm...

[DjCiD]

well some of the others are not that hard at all you may not see them as puzzels. like which color your thingy has to be when your undercover as a hark. Then you have to remeber those lil signs and input them to escape that one level. Oh and finding the key passes on the hark pilots... is it in the room this time or is he still carrying it with him... thats the one i hated ;D

how many ppl forgot to deactiveate the big gun before trying to fly the orni out of there? go boom! ;D

but like i said not much of a puzzle but more sneaky stuff

[ethan]

um, Metal Gear meets something bad?

[Anathema]

I enjoyed playing this game untill I got stuck in the smugglers mission and put the CD box in the closet for 2 months (finished the game later though). Apart from that mission, the game is to easy. Guards die in 3-5 shots, and it takes at least 20 shots to kill you :O!

Ps: I read in a tutorial that it takes 'bout 20 shots to kill the guard drone in the infiltration mission. I shot it once with my maula gun ;D.

It also took me 5 times before I found out you need to disable the guns before flying the orni out ;D.

[Ghosty_Square]

The funny thing is that I had got stuck in the orni mission so I disabled the guns thinking it would help me... well it did cos in the end I didn't need to do it a second time.

Now I just remember the most annoying part: you couldn't save the game during the mission. Now that made the game harder and that was good, but it was SO boring to play the smugglers' mission AGAIN and AGAIN.

[DjCiD]

yeash i hated having to do the same missions over and over caus eof dieing and bot being able to save when ever you wanted, but if you could then the game would of been to easy.

[nemafakei]

I can't get past the worm - you can't see where you're going. Due to this game, my down key is broken.

[DjCiD]

i didnt know you had a Don key :P Don Johnson? Mafia Don? what does your don key do? ;D

yeah i hate that worm part had to do it many times to get across... i think i bork my down left and right arrow keys doing it :P

[Anathema]

I won the worm part in one time- I just pressed the arrow buttons in some random order and I actually won ;D.

[DjCiD]

ya know i can believe that ;D the only way thru is by randomly pressing them and if you start sinking go a different way ;D

[Ghosty_Square]

actually

I would keep pressing moving straight without steering and I passed the mission first time...

however when I tried to show to a friend how to do it i failed...
