Setting
This game is set in a futuristic world with, where there is constant chaos as mutants
and gags roam the world seeking power and battles. Throughout the game you are
trying put and end to the rampaging gangs and mutants and bring peace to the
world. The game is set in a fairly modern looking world, aside from a few
technological advancements and slightly more chaotic scenery.
Mood
The mood of the game is very fast paced and full of action, often humorous and
always leaving you on the edge of your seat.
Action
The sound used in the game cutscene and the
game as with most games, are clearly prerecorded in real life before being opt into the
game, to make the sounds appear more realistic,
some sounds would have had to be edited to
create the strange monster types sounds that you
hear.
The sounds definitely set a very action style mood
as they are quite chaotic.
The sound fits the genre very well is it definitely
helps depict an action game.
The narrative helps to give the game a different
perspective and brings humour to the game; the
voice must have been pre-recorded in different
stages and edited before being implemented into
the game.
