Where are the moments when opponents blast though the wall to get at me? Why can’t I bring down the roof on a group of bad guys and crush them? Missed opportunities.

Sadly, the developers don’t take full advantage of the ace in their hand. All this destruction is calculated on the fly, and it’s immensely satisfying.
Bridges collapse, holes get punched in walls, and glass shatters into a million tiny pieces. Thanks to Geo-Mod, you can dish out damage to the game world like a wrecking ball.

Working in the mines on Mars was pretty much hell, and the place was teaming with overzealous guards eager to make sure that you spent every minute of your shift blasting rock.

It’s the future and Mars was a prime destination for would-be fortune seekers.
