Horribly unstable

Let me start by saying, that I have a Geforce4 TI4600 graphics card, Pentium 2.0, Soundblaster 5.1 Xgamer soundcard, 1 GIG of memory, DirectX8 and a number of other goodies. Yet this game crashes every other time it tries to load a level, I finally got to play the tutorial after setting the game to low detail, the lowest resolution and turned off all the fogging effects. It plays the opening movie of the main game, but crashes when it tries to load the gameplay.

It is certainly not the fault of my system...the tutorial was cool though. Seems like a fun game but unplayable due to impossible software.

Best Game for your money and for the year

I got this game for Christmas and finished it about a month later. It a heart pounding, nonstop action all the way around. I would recomond this game for anyone that looking for a good action game. the bullet time is the best part of the game and it can keep you alive once you know how to use it. Just buy the game and i promise you that you won't reget it. I just waiting around for them to have a sequel for this.

Looks great

Short and sweet, saw the 8 minute movie, game looks like a blast (literally) and I'm giving it 5 stars even though there is no multiplayer aspect.

wow this game is the best game i have seen in a while, the storyline is very interesting, more interesting than anyother video game i have ever played, this is unbelivable. the graphics are great, the A.I. is awesome and the bullet time (slow mo) is ridiculously sick. i mean i had an auto matic shotgun and turned a corner and pumped off six rounds and made three guys into spagehtti, it looked wicked cool. must buy..one thing i would like to see is some sort of online play but i am definately satisfied with this outcome..buy it, also there is an interseting side note to the game, a chineese technique of film making is used but if i tell you it will ruin the game.buy it!

This Game Is Awesome!!!!

A few years back when I bought this game, I was blown by everything---you name it--the graphics, the plot, the gameplay, the chilling but never the less suspenseful music! Seriously, when you install and play this game, it's like something you have never experienced before!

The "Bullet-Time" feature is such a great feature when you want to outsmart your enemies with slow-motion attempt to kill! This game is like the movies! Some very awesome things happen in this game, like really loud tires screeching, echoing in the midst of a parking tunnel, or, a large steel bridge collapsing. The best though is when you kill your enemy and watch him get knocked out in slow motion!

The plot is so unbelieveably great, that whoever wrote the plot has to be very, very skilled at writing. Like I said, it's like a movie mixed in with a novel!

The weaponry could not be better. Each weapon is so powerful and action-packed, that you can feel your hand shake each time you fire.

You seriously do not want to miss out on this one. The game is adapted to a variety of computers. The game has a powerful plot, movie-like gameplay--and I MEAN MOVIE-LIKE, graphics are exceptionally spectacular for such minimum-level requirements.

I tell you right now, this game is WORTH YOUR $$$, and I tell you right now, you will never ever forget this game!

THIS GAME IS THE BEST!!!

This game has afforded me the most fun since Jedi Knight. The bullet time thing is absolutly awsome, and is the meat of this game. You'll hear people moan about linearity, repitition, length and such. Hey, they say the same about everything, right? The game is a little short (10-15 hours), but that's only because it's so much fun. If it was awful, everyone would say it was too long. So there you have it. Yea, $... is a little high, you may wanna get it used, or wait till it drops, but if you have the extra cash, be a 1337 gamer and go get it. You'll have fun, no matter what they say =P

If you liked Half-Life and Deus Ex - you're gonna love this

Although it's a little short (10 hours), it's definately worth the money. I thought the bullet time would be more of a pain than anything - I certainly didn't expect it to be built into the game this well and to be so functional. You really have to play it to believe it. Not for kids though.

The first game I wanted to play twice!

Ok, so I've been playing video games since the days of the Apple II+. And this is the first -- the FIRST -- game that I have ever wanted to play again after finishing it the first time. My one criticism is that it is a tad too short. In my opinion, it is the best game of the last year and a half. I look forward to a sequal. Hopefully, the next one will have a better editor so that a good mod community can grow strong.
