With all due respect to the good people of America, Starbyte clearly styled Nex to appeal to a very specific section of the US populace. The game features big armoured marines (sporting crewcuts, naturally) and an aggressive alien foe engaged head-on with oversized weaponry and a crunching rawk soundtrack. The language selection screen even informs me that I speak American, rather than English.
All set for another mindless adolescent blaster? Well stand down, soldier. Although Nex does indeed feature a fair amount of corridor-trudging first-person gunplay, it also throws in a tactical element.

Complementing the Doom-style mayhem is the requirement to command a small squad of up to three marines, issuing basic orders and jumping into their boots where necessary.
This is no tacked-on feature, either. With such slow-moving marines (must be all that armour) and multiple lightning-quick foes all converging on your position from all directions, the need to establish a defensive perimeter soon becomes apparent.
Each level gives an active objective, such as reaching an exit point or rigging a particular area of the map with explosives. Accomplishment means orchestrating a tight operation of move and cover, making swift progress without allowing any of your squad to become isolated or your flank exposed.
