Destroy All Humans! is a videogame developed by Pandemic Studios LLC and published by THQ Inc. The game was created for the PlayStation 2 console from Sony and for the original Xbox from Microsoft. It was released in June 2005. The title is classed as an action game played from a third person perspective, with science fiction elements.

Destroy All Humans! is a game that borrows heavily from the aesthetic and the themes present in the sci fi of the 1950's. You are basically a representative of an alien race which, after traveling to Mars and obliterating the inhabitants of the Red Planet, makes a stop on Earth to wipe out the human race. The reason is the lack of reproductive capability of the species, which can be solved by cloning. Unfortunately (for us), cloning requires the Furon to get human DNA.

The main character is named Crypto and has a host of abilities. He can hypnotize and scan people and also has the ability to use psychokinesis. He has a variety of weapons he can use: Zap-o-Matic, disintegrator ray, abducto beam, quantum deconstructor and anal probe. You can always contact your mothership in order to save the game, get new missions and better weapons. The Furon will not get the Earth easily and you will face the police, the military and even more secretive defensive forces.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Pox remarks

Allow the game to idle at the mission selection screen and Pox will make various remarks.

Staying human

After leaving your UFO, aim at a human and press Circle. When you have changed into the human, the bar on the top left corner of the screen will go down. When it is all gone, you will change back into an alien. If you want to remain human, turn into a human and while walking around, scan other humans or animals to make the bar on the top left corner stay up.

Turn into a human, then enable the "Ammo-a-plenty" code. You will stay human forever. You do not have to scan thoughts to get out of the human body - just press Circle.
