March 24, 2008 - Good - Savage 2 isn't perfect -- squads are semirandomized smatterings of players unable to communicate or coordinate fluidly as of this writing, and the game can be overwhelming to new players -- but its ambition is matched only by the amount of fun you'll have playing.
March 3, 2008 - Good - Despite the overall lack of players, those who enjoy both a challenge and strategic teamplay will find a lot to like in Savage 2.
January 28, 2008 - Good - We would have liked to see one or two more game modes besides the two sides going at it until all buildings are destroyed, but it doesn't take away from Savage 2 being an excellent action game.
February 7, 2008 - Good - If you're looking for something different and don't mind hanging your fate on the skills and abilities of your fellow online gamers, then you'll find plenty of rewards in Savage 2.
February 12, 2008 - Mediocre - At just $30, the game is a bargain. The glitches and lag, however, are quite annoying, and the individual aspects of the title - FPS and RTS - just don't compare to other standalone games.
January 29, 2008 - Mediocre - If anything, Savage 2 leaves us with the distinct impression that perhaps the gaming world just isn't ready for these two popular genres to join together in holy matrimony.
