 Ogre: AReviw,b) William A. Peterson
Going by the average of the other scores, Ogre should only rate about 4.5 (on a scale of 0 to 10), yet the game gives the impression of being much better than a $2.95 game should be.
Game Speed: This game was intended from the very beginning to be a fast mover, and it is. The maximum number of units on the board is about 50, and this gets whittled down very quickly.
But Ogre as a game is well worth $2.95 and a bit of aggravation.

 IGN: Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis Review
Like the NGPC game, Tactics Ogre is a "Gaiden" (Japanese for side story) game in that it uses the gameplay system from its predecessor but takes the player on a side story to the overall Ogre Battle saga.
The actual game system is of course based on isometric gameplay of the SNES Tactics Ogre, which was later quite clumsily ported to 32-bit consoles.
The Ogre Battle games, which have appeared on SNES (that version was subsequently ported to PlayStation), N64, and NGPC, are essentially real-time strategy RPGs with semi-automatic, turn-based battles.

 Front Mission 4 - Reader Review - GameFAQs
The in game graphics obviously aren't up to the CGI and while they aren't mind blowing, they look nice and the levels are just great to look at.
While the game is sort of short for a RPG, it does offer the new game plus mode and carries over ep but not the stuff you bought with it.
But in the end it was a fun game but the crap story really brings this title down and to be honest it isn't fair to force sim missions on the player.

 Ogre Forums :: View topic - Minimal game engine framework proposal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
My intent is to create a minimal, extensible game engine that ties all the different game engines modules together, and uses Ogre as a slave, as Sinbad has suggested in the past.
That's not what a game engine need, data streaming is not supported by the current Ogre resource manager, this is a must have to implement...
So the game says to spawn a new Orc object, for example, then there is the ogre-controlled part of the Orc (graphics), the sound layer part, the physics part, and the game-specific part.

The Ogre is a giant, nearly invincible cybertank, from the desolate future of Steve Jackson's Ogre and G.E.V. games.
The Ogre die is a 4-inch die worth 50 points all by itself, and the Ogre player gets no other dice on his team.

 DevMaster.net - OGRE - Engine Details
OGRE (Object-Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine) is a scene-oriented, flexible 3D engine written in C++ designed to make it easier and more intuitive for developers to produce games and demos utilising 3D hardware.
OGRE is only a Rendering Engine; it has no network support, built in physics (triangle collision detection), support for.x and.3ds files (without conversion), sound, etc. Therefore, it can not really be one of the best 3D Game Engines available.
OGRE certainly is one of the most promising open source engines out there and also probably the engine that collects most of the praises these days.

 Ogre Forums :: View topic - Where does OGRE fit in with current engines?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
OGRE is not, and never was, intended to be a one-stop-shop game development platform, it's a tool for a specific purpose.
I realise this approach means that as of today, it's not as fast to develop a game with OGRE than it is with another all-in-one engine.
Games are made with tools and although that's not what Ogre is, a lot of people come to it for that so it would be nice to support them.

I could be listening to the music from a game without owning it or the games soundtrack (if it exists) but, on the other hand, it's not quite as clear-cut because all I would have is the music and that's only a smaller part of the game itself.
The game fumbles in a few areas and is average or slightly above in others, except the music which is easily the best aspect of the game (for me).
