I just finished downloaded greed and have played it for about 5 hours. 
heres what I think:

Good Stuff:

1. Multiple Character Choices.

2. Sloping floors.

3. Awsome sound track.

4. Good key setup (and customizable)

5. Item menu. Cool items too.

Bad Stuff:

1. The weapons of each character are indetical in power, they just look 
different.

2. Stupid, lame ass monsters.

3. Ammo is nowhere. I spent half the game with the melee weapon. Boring.

4. Game is very hard. Even on the second lowest diffulcity setting I 
could not beat the level.

5. Monsters respawn. Should be opitional.

6. Monsters acurate beyond belief (they never miss)

7. Walls at 90 degrees. Sigh...

8. Monsters don't have to face you to shoot as you. This really pissed me 
off.

9. No stacked rooms. Rooms can only be ajacent. 

10. Story needs work. Date of game is the year 15425 or something like 
that. Who cares whats going to happen in 13 thousand years!!!!!

Overall, I was at first delighted with this game but as I played I began 
to hate it more and more. It could be good, but needs some serious work.

Just how the hell do you beat the first level?! No exit anywhere, 
explored every nook on cranny of the game and not a goddamn thing.

This is why I stopped playing. I was all over the level looking for the 
primary objective and never found it. I found lots of secondary 
objectives, though. I had been everywhere, and eventually with the 
respawning monsters, I ran out of ammo and health. After this happened 
for the 3rd time, I gave up and played a little DOOM. GREED is really a 
minor league effort, and with QUAKE and the BUILD games impending, I will 
be holding onto my money.
