SAFETY INFORMATION
ABOUT PHOTOSENSITIVE SEIZURES
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain
visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games.
Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed
condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching
video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms including: lightheadedness, altered
vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation,
confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of
consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking
nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms
— children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther from
the television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a well-lit room,
and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor
before playing.
Other Important Health and Safety Information. The Xbox® Instruction Manual
contains important health and safety information that you should read and
understand before using this software.
AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR TELEVISION
Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or rear-
projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox® games, are
played on them. Static images presented during the normal course of game play may
“burn in” to the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the static image to appear
at all times, even when video games are not being played. Similar damage may occur
from static images created when placing a video game on hold or pause. Consult
your television owner’s manual to determine if video games can be played safely
on your set. If you are unable to find this information in the owner’s manual, contact
your television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games can be played
on your set.
Unauthorized copying, reverse engineering, transmission, public performance, rental,
pay for play, or circumvention of copy protection is strictly prohibited.

Nu Earth is a hellish, nightmare planet ravaged by war.
The planet’s atmosphere is deadly to inhale, devoid of life,
and poisoned by repeated chemical attacks.
But the planet is close to a vital wormhole in space, a fact
that has dragged its two rival factions — the Norts and
the Southers — into a never-ending war. Now Nu Earth is
a toxic, hell-blasted rock where millions of soldiers
in bio-suits wage bloody battles and die by the millions.
Nu Earth is too important to lose. Not an inch of ground
can be lost!
Here is where the legend of ROGUE TROOPER was born.
Created by Souther forces, ROGUE TROOPER is the sole
surviving example of the Genetic Infantrymen: a regiment
of soldiers grown in vats and bio-engineered to be the
perfect killing machines.
Complete with protective blue skin and the ability
to breathe the venomous atmosphere, the Genetic
Infantrymen (GI) became renowned figures on both sides
of the conflict.
Moreover, the mind and soul of the GI could be
downloaded onto a silicone chip in case of a mortal wound
on the battlefield. Once downloaded, the bio-chip could
then be slotted into special equipment and preserved
until the soldier could grace a newly grown body.
Betrayed by a general in their own high command, almost
the entire regiment of GIs were wiped out in the Quartz
Zone Massacre. The sole survivor managed to save just
three bio-chips from his former comrades and slot them
into his gun, helmet and back pack.
Now he is a loner with just the disembodied personalities
of his comrades for company...
...roaming the chemical wasteland in search of revenge...
...the ROGUE TROOPER!
