Englische Sprachausgabe: Avoiding the usual flood of sequels that dominates the release schedule for most of each year, 2003's State of Emergency is one of the first games in the "riot" genre to hit PC gaming. The concept alone is one of the most original we've come across, and we give even more credit for pitting gamers in thick of a chaotic riot. Looting, destruction and flame-throwers are all part of the norm here. Just be sure not get yourself thrown into jail for your crimes. In the near future, the oppressive American Trade Organisation has declared a State of Emergency. The authorities are trying to eliminate organised resistance; they are restricting movement across the city to stop the spread of revolt. The game puts you deep within the riot scenes, with the intention of smashing everyone and everything to overthrow the State Authorities.
