      8.5

      Pros:

      -A unique map, indeed
      -Many surprises to be had. The flying rocks were my personal favorites
      -Alan especially like the "Gundum" reference (I pray I spelled that right. He'd have my head if I got it wrong...)
      -First aid kit and ammo generation every minute or so

      Cons:

      -For me personally, it's sometimes hard to get the map started. Alan seems to have it down pat, though
      -AIs do absolutely nothing to help, other than heal you occasionally
      -The truck boss can potentially wipe out an entire team if caught off guard
      -Chopper/army truck gauntlet can be hard to survive
      -(not necessarily a con) Difficulty function serves no purpose other than friendly fire damage

      Conclusion:

      I personally recommended this map for our series. It's quite fun to blast away flying cars that shoot balls of plasma at you. Seriously, I can't think of a more original concept. One shotting tanks with the hunting rifle is fun, too. However, due to the lack of AI functionality, I recommend playing this one with a friend. Be warned that going this one solo will greatly increase the difficulty, and you'll be fighting the final boss for a long, long time. The only other thing we would have liked to have seen is a difference in difficulties, like if the plasma balls did 10 damage on Advanced/Expert instead of 5 damage. That sort of thing. Also, another map or two would have been nice, but we're not complaining with what is provided. 
      Overall, Alan and I agree that this map is a keeper, and sure as hell is a lot of fun. Just be sure to play with a friend or two. Ratings are 80-90 (85 average).

      Pros:

      Amazing for an old map.
      Certainly legendary and Unique, a whole new gamemode. 
      Love the custom bosses and obstacles
      A custom skybox!
      Great fun with friends.
      Posses a good difficulty

      Cons:

      Bots do nothing to escape the objects
      They do not attack the bosses.
      No poster

      Conclusion:

      Why are there no other maps like this? This is Unique and amazing.

      9.2

      Pros:

      Bosses
      Mini bosses
      UFO
      Obstacles
      

      Cons:

      No floor
      No poster or logo for credits
      UFO has a little bit to much health

      Conclusion:

      My friend and  I tried out this map and enjoyed every minute of this especially with all the mini bosses and bosses this was awesome we really didn't expect them especially the design and originality of it all. Only issues I had was that My friend and  I couldn't see the floor and there was no poster which bothered me because it was just blank. This map was awesome especially the last boss but the boss has too much health maybe you can lower it just a tad so that way it doesn't take  20 million shots. Other than that this map is really good and should be promoted its well deserved its credit

      9.4

      Pros:

      + Difficult.
      + Interesting theme.
      + Like an old mini game.
      + Different threats.
      + Unexpected custom models.
      + Finale.
      + Weaponry is always with you.
      + Medkit drops. 
      + Sky box is fine.
      + No lag.
      + Respawn.

      Cons:

      - AI Support.
      - UFO has a little too much HP.
      - Evasive maneuvers were complicated. 
      

      Conclusion:

      To be  honest I was looking at the screenshots of this map before downloading and I thought it would be terrible. Turns out that I had quite a lot of fun playing it, it's very difficult even on Normal. The bosses and other threats had a reasonable amount of HP, I personally think that the UFO in the finale had a bit too much HP. It felt like I was shooting at the critical spot and not doing the right technique to defeat it. The flashing notifications that you were doing damage was helpful though. I would highly recommend not playing with AIs but only with friends or online. The AIs will just stand there and heal you at the worst moments. I nearly raged due to their idiotic "help." Doing this on your own is definitely a challenge to be tested, recommend it completely.

      Pros:

      Interesting.
      New Models.
      Tough Bosses.
      Guns always available.
      Small size.
      Very Different.
      UFO is the last boss.
      Difficulty increases as map progresses.
      Enemies range from trucks,cars,rocks,UFOs,weak tanks etc..

      Cons:

      Bots are useless.
      Very Very Long for being so small in size.
      Moving around is almost impossible.
      

      Conclusion:

      A must play map. I found it very tough that i had to do "sv_cheats 1" and then "god 1" in the console.
      I found that some things were undodgable . Also each hit meant 5 damage, and the UFO does more. 
      There a absolutely no zombies, though the "incoming attack" music cue played very often. I really struggled with bots. But, it is for someone with a liking for funny maps. The tanks could be killed with one shot with auto shotty. Also, when you shoot correctly the target glows red. This is a good map. I recommend it
