■ 08/02/08 - Maelstrom A freedom band of mercenaries battling an unethical mega corporation for supremacy of the world, what could be worse for Earth? Oh yeah, the invading aquatic based alien species looking to turn the whole planet into a paddling pool.
■ 23/10/07 - Maelstrom It’s been a while … since I played a RTS (Real Time Strategy) game on my somewhat neglected gaming PC. The last ones played were in November / December 2005 with Civilization IV and Age of Empires III. But these cannot be compared with Maelstorm. Although it has the RTS gameplay with creating, building, up-grading of units and structures, it’s a real war game. A kind of Battlefield in RTS style with futuristic elements.
■ 27/03/07 - Maelstrom Maelstrom is a strategy action epic which takes place on a devastated future Earth. In the wake of an apocalyptic ecological disaster, the planet is threatened by an alien invasion, thus becoming the battleground as a divided human race fights for survival.
■ 27/03/07 - Maelstrom Maelstrom is a new 3-D real time strategy game from the established developers at Codemasters who brought us the superb title "Perimeter" in 2004. The question is whether or not Maelstrom can live up to the quality of its predecessor, and bring something new to the almost universal RTS formula.
■ 16/03/07 - Maelstrom Life after the apocalypse is going to be tough, but we think we’ll cope with the help of our survival kit. Buried in an old biscuit tin at the bottom of a garden we’ve got a pair of studded shoulder pads, an eye patch, a mohawk wig, a battered leather jacket and a rust-streaked Hummer. How did we manage to fit so many post-apocalyptic clichés into such a small container? Let’s just say we got a few tips from KDV Games.
■ 01/03/07 - Maelstrom Why do game developers keep doing this to me? They show off cool ideas that could bust open a stale genre, and then fail utterly to create a fun game around them. Maelstrom is infuriating in this way. Weather, temperature, and terraforming are all painstakingly modeled to have actual game effects.
■ 20/02/07 - Maelstrom Une Terre ravagée par la guerre et les désastres écologiques, c’est le futur apocalyptique de Maelstrom où l’humanité lutte pour sa survie. Derrière ce scénario à la Mad Max se cache le nouveau RTS des créateurs de Perimeter. Et son digne successeur ? Test de Maelstrom, sur PC, chez Micromania
■ 06/02/07 - Maelstrom C’est dans un contexte post-Apocalyptique Sci-Fi que les développeurs russes de KDV ont décidé de nous plonger avec Maelstrom. Notre petite planète bleue est en danger oui, plongée dans le chaos et convoitée par trois factions plus ou moins sympathiques. Malheureusement, malgré les influences certaines des références du genre (Starcraft, Dawn of War ou Command and Conquer), on peine à y croire : le projet est plus que mitigé.
