Product Information | |
Broken Helix follows the exploits of Jake Burton (voiced by Bruce Campbell), an explosives expert tasked with diffusing a series of bombs deep within a secure Area 51 facility, planted by scientists seemingly gone insane. It soon becomes apparent that not everything is as it seems, as players find themselves embroiled in a dangerous conspiracy. Viewed from a third-person perspective, Jake must make his way through the facility while acquiring crucial items and color-coded keys to access restricted areas, sneaking past security cameras in order to remain undetected and dispatching any hostile enemies he encounters. Along the way, Jake will need to glean information from surviving scientists and reporters, or assist them in order to complete vital objectives. However, their reactions toward Jake will differ depending on whether they're spoken to in an angry or affable manner. Strewn throughout the installation are health, energy, and armor items necessary to keep Jake alive and to power his weapons, which comprise a plasma rifle, grenades, and a flamethrower, in addition to his standard-issue, high-voltage stun rifle. Many of Jake's tasks within the facility are timed and will result in his death if not completed quickly enough. To aid in the completion of these tasks, maintenance and assault robots can be remotely activated and controlled by the player, to access particular areas of the facility or to eradicate hostile entities. Saving the game is accomplished through the use of Save CDs acquired during the quest, and one is expended for each save. Broken Helix offers four different endings that can be achieved based upon actions within the game. |

Good graphics
Compelling gameplay
Good value
Awesome and entertaining.
I wasn't raised with this game as a kid, but the moment I played it as an adult I realized how great of a game it actually is. It has multiple story lines depending on the choices you make so you can play this game over and over with different outcomes, easy controls, and just all around fun and full of suprises the further you go. The graphics are ok for the time but the soundtrack!!! Wowww! Super tense! This is truly one of my favorite games now and I happily add it to my Ps1 collection. To any of those folks who enjoy the nostalgia of Ps1 graphics and gameplay I say to you, Buy this game!!!

Rated mature, playstation 1 game.
This game is most excellent and was years ahead of its time, considering when it was produced. The voice of the main character is that of the star of those "Evil Dead" movies and at times is quite humorous. The controls are intuitive and weapon upgrades are abundant. I bought this so that I can increase my collection of rare ps1 games, of which I have dozens. This game stands out among most of them in its completeness.
