Great game, but please ngmoco, purchasing energy cells? That's retarded! Why can't we just use credits to buy the cells? I wasted $5.00 just for the cells, and now they're almost out. Wow, this is a total scam. And cmon if you don't buy the cells, you have to wait for 256.32 (for me) minutes for your suit to recharge? Wow you guys, cmon. Please make it so we can use credits for energy cells, not actual iTunes money. Or even how bout just making it that there is now energy. To me, the whole energy thing is a big scam. Until you update I'm going to tell all my friends to not get this game, or write 1-star reviews. I'm also not changing my rating until you update.

What is up with the energy costs?! Seriously this is ridiculous! $1 for 20 power cells. That is only 5 sessions! The other upgrade packages don't help your budget much either. I mean if the packages were better I would consider buying them. If I could get 100 sessions (400 power cells) for $1 I'd pay. But 5 sessions?!!! Are you kidding me? Ngmoco, if you want my money, improve the frickin' energy packages. Right now they're stupid. And improve the damn suit recharge time. I'd like to see the energy be recharged fully for free 3 times a day. And none of this recharge-4-out-of-12 bars at a time! I want 12 out of 12 done 3 times a day! And make your packages divisible by 4 if your are going to take 4 energy bars a session. I mean it's great you get 30 power cell off the bat but I can't play 7.5 sessions. What are the remaining 2 power cells for? I mean when I see an option for 975 cells for $30 I think you guys are dumb as hell. Oh boy I get to pay $30 for 243.75 sessions!! That's only $0.13 a session (at the cheapest) for less than 5 minutes of play. In those 5 minutes, at least as a beginner, you might get 80 credits if you play well and win. At that rate you need to play 62.5 games to get enough credits for the Elite armor design. That's roughly 1/4 of the $30 you pay for 243.75 sessions which equates to $7.5 for a stupid suit design. The $7.5-suit design costs more than most full-fledged games in the App store! Make the prices cheaper!

This game is great. The graphics are good, framerate is good, gameplay is good, upgrades are good. Although, I must mention the controls don't really work until you buy the first unlockable weapon. However, the one star review obviously has a reason. In the hopes of making more money (in light of the free apps with downloadable content) and making sure enough people would play the game, ngmoco made it free. To compensate for this obvious loss in cash, they decided to "let you make donations." If you want to play, you can any time. If you actually want to level up and get better equipment...well, that's another story. Ngmoco decided that they needed a source of income. Thus, they created the energy system. To earn money when playing, you must have energy. Unfortunately, you only get enough energy for ONE game (in which you earn money), every FOUR AND A HALF HOURS. Now, again, you can play without earning money, but there is no sense of accomplishment or reward. In one case, I had ten kills and only two deaths, yet since I was not energized I earned NOTHING. Ngmoco conveniently gives you the key to eternal happiness---MONEY. For only a dollar, you can play two and a half games (WTF?). Personally, I would rather have paid like ten bucks FLAT. Then played constantly or at least have a shorter charge time.

They really nickle and dime you for this.

But 4 hours to recharge for enough energy for 1 game is insane.

Great game, pay to play is bull$hit. I would rather pay $20 for this than the way it is set up now!

I can understand that MMO servers are hard and expensive to run but the way you get money is kind of stupid I mean come on? I don't have an iTunes card or any iTunes cash right now so I can't buy the energy so I have no powerups but some rich basturd comes along and he's got the "laser gun" that kills me in like four shots because he bought the battery thing that just makes me mad... But besides that one issue the game is perfect ngmoco PLEASE try to figure out a better way to make money that's not a serious disadvantage to us poor folks...

ngmoco has released quite a few games on the iTunes App Store, but Eliminate is by far my favorite. Gameplay is fun and fast paced, and while the controls may take some adjusting to because of the lack of traditional FPS input devices for a touchscreen-only input device like the iPhone, optional features such as auto-fire make adjusting easier.

I can't believe this is FREE! i would have gladly put out some money for it!

The best free game on the AppStore. Amazing graphics, amazing controls, but the energy system needs work. Fun for any gamer.

Love this game. Definitely takes getting used to. Was frustrated at first, but once you upgrade weapons, its on man!! Pick this up for free

No time for review...Must play best free game ever made....

this game is AMAZING yes the credits system can be tiresome but if you love firstperson shooters YOU NEED THIS GAME.....WHY ARE U STILL READING???? CLICK THE GET BUTTON AND PLAY THE GAME (if you want to play with me my plus name is zacofspades

and I still want my money back. This game is comically imbalanced. It's like a Greek tragedy of imbalanced games. The matchmaking system does not work. Noobs stand no chance. They will likely quit within minutes. This game has no chance at all of attracting a casual fanbase. The controls are far too clumsy, clunky, and cumbersome in the beginning. The learning curve is too steep. Casual gamers make up the majority of the idevice's ownership base. This game will fly completely over the head of many, many iPhone users. The pricing structure is ridiculous. It is utterly uncompetitive within the appstore marketplace. Much like iMech, this game is doomed. A decent effort from Gameloft on either NOVA or MC will serve as the final nail in Eliminate's coffin. Even without competition, it will likely die out anyway, for it has completely shot itself in the foot. The entire infrastructure of Eliminate reeks of amatuer hour. Infinity Ward would laugh themselves to death if they saw this. The udgrade system and the leveled weapons, each weapon more powerful then the last, obliterates any hope of maintaining a level playing field, where ideally skill would win out over equipment. Competitive balance is Irreparably damaged and the experience is crippled for all but those the most hardcore of gamers. I cannot believe that Ngmoco failed to grasp this most basic of concepts. Let alone the fact that he who pays more gains more credits and more upgrades.

one word...greatness

This game is horrible! Play for 5 min and after that you have to wait for 4 hours ???? What the hell?? This is totally wasting of money on buying credits! I will never buy them and never again buy anything from ng moco :) !!!

Cool game, but PLEASE, PLEASE respect the iPhones silent mode. I have my phone on vibrate for a reason.

My only complaint is the energy packs cost too much... Other than that the gameplay is excellent! Add me on plus+ Loves2spoon.

The game is awefull, when you look around whith your right thumb the camera keeps going like it is floating making it impossible to aim at anything. I had every intention of not even trying this game but it was free and now I know why. I knew it was going to be bad and now it's confirmed.

This is a fun arena based FPS. The controles are OK, almost as good as Wolf3D and Doom. Player matching is really fast. First to 10 deathmatch is the only mode and the matches go quick. There is an offline bot match to train with, although the AI is a little slow. In game purchase of "energy" is required to continue leveling of your character. Granted you can play without energy, your character just has progression locked. I personally don't like the pay to play model, if this game was $5 - $6 that would be fine. I don't like seeing a sales pitch every time I play.

This game is more full featured than most consle fps's... It will blow your mind

finally a good fps hits the appstore!

Absolutely fantastic game, BUT I would have preferred to pay like $6.99 and not have limits on my upgrades. I will not pay to have energy refilled for upgrades. This is a cheap move on the developer's part. This would have been a 5 star game, but they're forcing you to pay real money if you want to have any chance of keeping up with the competition. Everyone, rate this 1 star until they change this. This is a bad sign for the future of microtransactions.

This just makes me yearn for DOOM multiplayer.

Stupid strategy ngmoco, you fail.

This game is amazing, but please let us pick up bonus credits without energy. I understand that you want us to buy power cells but when I'm running around picking up credits and I don't get to keep them, it gets ridiculous. Will change to five stars when this is implemented.

Those cells are really expensive! Please get ride of the price!!!!

First off, the way a first person shooter works just can't be converted to the iPhone properly, no matter how good the developer. For that reason alone this game is just not fun; the controls are sluggish and annoying to use. The charging and credit mechanic is good money for the developer, but a rip off for the user. There are two possitives this game has to offer: graphically it's impressive and the sounds (sans the grunting) are satisfying.

Well, what do you expect for a free game? The controls in this game are awful... the d-pad is shoddy, the gun never fires when I want it to, and the multiplayer battles are pretty much just four guys standing in four corners of the room shooting at each other. Not very fun, not to mention the singleplayer is just as bad. I've always been a fan of ngmoco's games, but this one just didn't live up to my expectations. Maybe some updates will make it better, but for now, Eliminate does not deserve a spot on my iPhone.

Seems that this could be good but without inverted controls, it's unplayable for me.

They should have an option when you can choose if u want to fight as a team

First of all, the controls are not bad, they are just a bit different. Secondly, people complaining about the powercells, cannot look at the better side of it. It's for these powercells, that you are not getting highly adddicted to this awesome game. So stop complaining & get a life! Great work Ngmoco, add me. -techfreakansh

Compared to all the free apps out there, this game beats them all.

I wish fir an option to sell unwanted guns, armor, etc. Then it will be the BEST mobile game ever! Remember, sell for CREDITS, not power cells! Thank you. :D

Good game but needing to purchase powercells to progress kills gameplay. Powercells need to last longer because it only takes three matches to deplete your energy to zero.

I have modern combat sandstorm and it's 4.99$ and a piece of crap!!!!! So stop complaining about power cells and stuff! This is a FREE GAME so your not getting ripped off if you don't like it! I have BIA, MCS, and this and I like this game best of all!!!! Only suggestion would be grenades cos that would rule!!

I love this game and it is my favorite app, plus, it's free. My friends and I have a blast playing toghther.

Read carefully before giving your info!
