You have an overhead view of a 3d map, and pretty decent camera control to allow you to get the best vantage point of what is going on. With that said, and knowing what you're looking at, let's get into a bit more depth on the game itself.įirst off, the game does feel and control a lot like an RTS. I have no idea where they got the EMS structure from, honestly - we all know that over here, pretty much every member of an EMS crew is going to be at least an EMT. These sorts of 'omissions' don't make sense, until you remember the origins of this game - it is from Germany, and is based on the European standards for emergency response, particularly the UK model of policing, where only specially trained officers will carry a firearm, and a German model of Fire Response. Let's face it, we're used to the USA, where all of the cops have guns, all of the Ambulances are usually big, boxy affairs, and "light rescue" is a relatively normal part of a fire department. I've actually been playing the original German release since 2006, and I will be the first person to say it as an American, I find a lot of the structuring of emergency units hard to grasp at times, and I personally attribute that (with lousy marketing and the fact it was released when it was already 2 years old) to the 'flop' of the first game in the series to actually see a US Release, Emergency 3. It's what happens when marketing goes haywire, and causes the potential fan base of an 8.5 average game (that Gamespot covers right here, oddly!) to go "well, it's a year on, I guess we really won't ever see that game here". 911 : First Responders is actually the American renaming of the 4th game in the cult-classic Emergency game series, in all of it's glory, only translated into a language that is widely spoken on this side of the Atlantic. That's what you'd think, but the reality is that it did release here.
By swwinchester | Review Date: NovemOK, so there was this awesome PC game released in Europe in 2006, the 4th in a series, and we never saw it in the United States.
