Free Game: Wolf Team

Wolf Team

“Wolfteam is a unique 3D MMOFPS by Softnyx that’s truly one of the most polished shooters out there. The most unique aspect of the game is that players can switch between playing as a ‘Marine’ in first person, and as a ‘Wolf’ in third person at any time with the click of a button. Marines have low hit points, but are effective at dealing damage from a distance, while wolves have a large pool of hit-points, but no ranged attacks. The game is fast-paced, balanced, and truly one of the best MMOFPS games out there.” from mmohut.com
