In all my years of computer illiteracy,this junker takes the cake! I really can't tell you how good the game play is because I couldn't even get it to run.It simply turned the screen grey and locked up the machine!I also attempted the labyrinth that was activision/raven tech "support".The list of possible problems is immense and the planets must be perfectly aligned to even attempt it.zero stars is being kind to this rocket science clunker.Incidentally,the manual ... too!

Disappointing!

I played this game after playing Max Payne, and Soldier of Fortune was nowhere near in action and storyline. Half-Life and Unreal 1 are much better than this game as well.
Cons:
* You only have a few saves available, and they get reduced as you increase the challenge level. It [stinks] to have to go back to the very beginning of the level and do it all over.
* You just move forward killing everybody who jumps in front of you. I'm personally tired of that idea in games. There is no looking for buttons and clues, turning things on and off, and that sort of things.
* You have many weapons, but you rally need two of them to get the job done.

Pros:
* Each mission takes place in a different part of the world, and that is very cool because the environment varies greatly.

I do not recommend you buying this game, but if you want to buy it, then buy it for a low price.

Good in the beginning, but at the end it gets repetitive

Dont get me wrong I played this game for hours straight but I got bored of it quickly. The action is superb and the graphics are extremely well done although I think they could have still done a better job with it.

However I didnt like the multiplayer part of it because On my comp. it lags even though I have 500mhz, 128mb, and cable.

I would wait till prices go down or something.

it was fun, but not that fun

yes, ill admit that it was a fun game, but i wouldnt really know because i only played it for abour an hour before it started freezing up on me, and then randomly freezing my system until i had it removed. it would have been fun if not for the freezing thing, and the fact that i had to install some driver to get my videocard to work (voodoo 3) and that its 900 (900!) megabytes to install. dont but this unless you want to waste your money, get a headache from dealing with the software problems, and have tons and tons of available memory space, i uninstalled it and now it gathers dust [alot of money] for 60 minutes of fun, what a great deal

BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED

I have never had this bad an experience with any game. The thing crashes ALL the time and get this, you have to install it in a priviledged account, but have to play it in a non-priviledged account. Ouch! I also somehow got locked into parental discretion mode. Since I did not switch it to that I obviously did not have the password to change it back. When it works, it is fun. What isn't so fun is to spend 45 minutes getting through the game, and have it quit without warning.

The one thing I suppose that does not help is that I am running it under Windows 2000, which in effect is NT5.

This is like the "Starship Troopers" of computer games.

This game is all right. Not great, just all right. It's basically the "Starship Troopers" of computer games, with lots of gore but little substance behind the endless showers of crimson. It's painfully obvious that the main selling point was supposed to be the gore, and that a good majority of the developers time was spent on making sure spilled intestines quiver at just the right speed, rather than designing smart enemies and interesting levels. The first level in the subway station is cool, as is the series of levels in the Sudan and Japan, but this does not make up for the sheer stupidity of the plot. While this game is fun to play for a little while, it is nothing compared to "Half-Life" or "Deus Ex." I would recommend that you download the demo or borrow a copy of this game before investing your hard-earned cash in a game that may very well dissapoint you.

Almost Half-Life ... but not quite

A very solid FPS. I very much enjoyed 90% of this game. Like Half-Life, it has a good story line and great weapons. This game also features some good weapons balance -- it only allows you to have a finite amount of weapons and the ammunition and health can be sparse (especially towards the end).

The Ups: Great models, story, weapons, and over all game play. This is the first single player game since Half-Life that I have played all the way through.

The Downs: The story breaks down towards the end and it gets just a little monotonous by the time you're done.

Overall: probably one of the better games that money can buy right now. Numerous games that have come out since do not measure up. It has a very nice feel, and is very polished. A good purchase you won't regret.

This is a tight game if you are into a realistic version of quake or doom. Probably not a tactical rogue spear style game, but definently fun for the whole 17+ family.

THE BEST FIRST PERSON SHOOTER EVER!!!!!!!!!!

This game is hands down the best game there ever was. There are thirty heart pounding missions with excellent Graphics and sound. There are awesome explosions and cut-in scenes, and the animations can't be beat. The graphics are run on a Quake 2 engine, But it has been HEAVILY modified. It is a must have game but its pretty gory. If you can't handle the gore Quake 2 then you can't handle this game.
