| Game Info |
| -Wow. This game is packed with....so much!!! The game is way better than Goldeneye, and way better than any FPS I've EVER played. It's just amazing, a Super Smash Bros. Melee of FPS. A multiplayer dream. Graphics: A- The levels look great. This game has its own style of graphics that are very pleasing. The characters are very sleek and smooth and not blocky. The guns are very detailed, and the whole game runs at 60 frames non-stop. The load times last about 7 seconds which is really good for a game that is multiplatform. The only problem I've came across is that the disk will jump and an error message will appear. This happens very rarely though. Gameplay: A+ 1-player mode rules. There are 9 levels (about) which very in difficulty. They range from robot factories, to Notre Dame, Aztec, and alien planets. They are all connected because of a decent story. The Timesplitters aliens, trying to destroy the human race, are suddenly ambushed by some spies. They take their crystals and jump in a Star Gate-ish ring and go to the theme places. The missions are varied, with shoot everything missions, to spy missions where you must not be noticed, or rescue missions. Beyond the 1-player mode, there is 1-player challenges that unlock characters and modes. It is like Event Matches of Smash Bros Melee. All of them are great with challenges like Infiltrations, Behead the Dead, and Team Challenge. Now onto multiplayer... WOW. The cooperative mode takes you on the 1-player Story mode with two people. The missions are practically the same and great fun. Then the endless modes of Arcade. You can't run out of replay value. There is also a MapMaker mode, which is very cool. You can control the lights and where the guns are and everything. There is no blood in this game, which helps the ESRB rating a lot. Sound: B+ The worst category of the game. Not to say that its worst category is bad. It's actually quite good. It's just a bit normal. Replay: A+++ Great. Awesome. Unlimited. Okay maybe I stresseed it a little bit. But it is unlimited. So much 1-player. So much multiplayer. Overall: A+ Grade: 98% "A must buy FPS." |
