Blacksite Area 51 review Xbox 360Area 51, centre of interest for UFO believers and conspiracy theorists everywhere, is the setting for Blacksite: Area 51, the new sci-fi first person shooter from Midway. Taking the action right into the middle of the mysterious Area 51 itself, and mixing sci-fi fantasy with real-world locations, Blacksite drops you and your squad into a tangled web of alien invasion, biological weapons and government cover-ups. So far so intriguing, but in the wake of so many spectacular shooters being released in 2007, how will Blacksite: Area 51 stack up? Find out now in our huge review.  Blacksite Area 51 review for Xbox 360 And, whether the rumours of alien spaceships being salvaged are true or not, the fact of the matter is there’s something being hidden in Area 51. Although the US Government has admitted to the presence of an "operating location” in the Nevada desert, the entire area doesn’t appear on any maps. The security guards patrolling the area are authorised to use lethal force to protect the base if necessary. And even though the US Government have been asked many times to cough up what happens in the base, each request has been turned down for matters of "national security”. With all of this uncertainty surrounding this base, Area 51 is the perfect setting for a sci-fi shooter, and Blacksite takes its "creative license” as far as it can go. Mixing real life locations, such as the desert town of Rachel, Nevada, and the "Little A’le’inn”, a small guest house that sits near the base, with a plot revolving around biological weapons, alien invasions, and, of course, a government conspiracy, Blacksite certainly has a level of authenticity to keep all alien hunters happy. If Midway had put the same amount of effort into making the rest of the game, we could be onto a winner... Click here to continue reading Blacksite Area 51 review for Xbox 360 now!
