Does anyone have this game or have they even played it? All I have seen of it are the reviews online. It looks really good and if I could find it anywhere I'd buy it. If anyone here has experienced it first hand then let me know what you thought of it. Thanks.

That's what I've heard. I've been checking eBay periodically for the past month for it and it never did show up.

Check out the reviews section of this site.

I believe Bobak reviewed Ironclad some time ago.

I've had the dubious honour to play this one. It's quite mediocre and the pre-rendered graphics are ugly and poorly animated.

It's a really boring game and I never truly felt as if I was really blowing shit up. It felt stale and pale. Looked washed out too.

I'd give it a 5. Nothing horrible, nothing spectacular.

Spot on, Rade. I'd give a 3 or 4 at max because it not only is a less-than-mediocre shooter but also totally overpriced, specially for a CD game.

I made the mistake to buy it after reading a couple of euphoric reviews...the unit is useless, the normal shot sucks, the colors are dull... overall, any other Neo shooter is better than Brikin'ger. Some audio tracks are quite nice tho.

There are a few nice things such as some interesting backs (the burning city) or bosses, but again, nothing special.

I'd prefer Last Resort, Pulstar, Blazing Star or Viewpoint over it any day of the week.

I don't particularly like it. It has waaay too many rendered '3D' objects for a 2D shooter, IMO.
