Purge reviews at Gamespot & Elited.net

Two new reviews of Purge to report about: The first one is at Elited.net and can be described as lukewarm. Without offering a numerical rating, the come to this conclusion:
I can't say it is a terrible game, nor is it spectacular. It is actually a great idea, just needs more work. Purge would have been more enjoyable if I could have found more gamers to play with. What this game needs is some AI to fill in the vacant spots to keep this game going. Lets see what Freeform will do with it from here.
The second review we can report about is at Gamespot. The rating of 5.1/10 is not favorable, nor is the summary:
Beyond those issues, the fact remains that Purge is a multiplayer-only game, and there aren't many other people to play with right now, even weeks after release. That simple fact cuts directly into Purge's value, despite its suggested retail price of $29.99. Ironically, Purge's server-centric experience system could be a factor in the game's inability to grow, as it directly discourages the creation and use of new servers. Despite its interesting concept, Purge is difficult to recommend due to the lack of a large online population and some balance issues, bugs, and design quirks. If you're desperate for a change from the prevalence of modern-war themes in today's shooters, Purge is still worth a shot, provided you have faith the community will grow faster than it has in the first weeks of release.
