Some games hit you like a tidal wave. No sooner have you bludgeoned your first enemy, skidded round your first corner, or insulted your first NPC, you know it’s going to be a cracker. Global Agenda, regrettably, is not one of those games. By all...

Global Agenda is a unique, genre-defying multiplayer action game. Yes, we realize we just called it an "action game" but that's just so you don't think MMORPG and have your eyes get all milky like a zombie's, while your mouth hangs open as...
