What the critics said
The Enforcer of GamePro said of the Nintendo 64 version, "If you're looking for the best corridor shooter on the N64 right now, Armorines is it. The frenetic action, challenging missions, and creepy graphics will keep you blasting away through those cold winter nights."
— GamePro, 2000
However, Hyper said of the same console version, "Armorines had potential, but somehow it's been spoiled."
— Hyper, 2000
