First of all, just to figure out all the questions from the game, you will need to see The Matrix, The Matrix: Reloaded, The Matrix: Revolutions, and The Animatrix. Mainly you'll need to see Final Flight of The Osiris(From the Animatrix, unless you saw it with Dreamcatcher), which is the prelude to Reloaded and Enter The Matrix. It is an awesome game with amazing gameplay and a deep storyline. You'll play as captain of the Logos, Niobe or first mate, Ghost. The focus ability, which lets you pull off the wallrunning, bullet dodging, and super jumping is the best use of bullet-time yet. The game feels so much like an interactive movie, and that only makes it better. You see main characters Trinity, Morpheus, and Neo (who unfortunately only has a tiny part in the game). Agents appear who also do just as Morpheus said in the first Matrix movie. "Men have emptied entire clips on them and hit nothing but air." But shooting at them does help distract them so you can escape. Agent Smith has changed (if you see Reloaded or have played Enter The Matrix you'll know what I mean) so don't even think about standing your ground. Just do what Cypher said in The Matrix, "When you see an Agent, you do what we do, run." The Logos operator, Sparks, is hilarious in the game and gives Niobe and Ghost information and advice while you're in the Matrix. You'll get four driving levels (three with Niobe driving, one with Ghost driving). The loading screen is even pretty cool as you see the encrypted Matrix. I haven't had much luck with the hacking mini-game but I'm still trying. Anyways, I've already beaten the game and you'll be happy to know that you'll be rewarded with a preview of The Matrix: Revolutions once you have beaten it. I highly reccommend this game for anyone who likes The Matrix and also any other avid gamers out there. Buy it now!
GREAT GAME!

This game is awesome!When I first played it,I didn't want to put the controller down.I played for hours after hours.First of all,the gameplay is amazing.The graphics make you feel your part of the ride.Once you can ignitiate the matrix moves,you will be able to run and walk on walls,dodge bullets,smack everyone silly!The only thing bad about it is that you can't become Neo.But Niobe and Ghost can make up for it.Don't rent!Buy it!It will be worth your while.
Best Game Ever

This game is one of the best fighting games I have ever played in a long time.What I think is cool is the fact that you can play as one as two characters, One is Niobe a captain of another shilp like theNebuchdnezzar.The other is Ghost a cool looking and mysterious character.The coolest part in the gameis walking up walls in slow motion and the kung fu. It seems like a pretty long game. You would be a fool not to buy this awesome game.
The Matrix has you

The Matrix has you and it sure as heck had me! I picked up the contoller started up a new game and BAM!!! Instanly i was bombarded by 5 or 6 police officers from every angle Just because i shot one of them! This was so great i could take the smile off my face as I tried to act sorry for the poor cops i kicking the crap out of. Then of course i push down L1 and the bullet time starts up HOLY! Bullets were coming from all angles and then it got intense i ran at the guys grappled em up stole his gun and shot him in the face with it. In my mind there is no better shooter game on the playstation system Toppling Halo and Ghost Recon off the Shelves. This is truley a new gaming expierience. This may even make a new genre in the near future but none will add up to the matrix original. Many other games will try to say they have a great game with the best bullet time out there but there will never be a better shooter then Enter the Matrix, if you dont own a system, this one game will give you a reason to buy a new system. If you like The matrix, shooters or just plain like a good game then buy this game. If there were such a thing as to give them game a 10 out of 5 i would give it an 11. LET THE MATRIX TAKE YOU!
'Enter The Matrix' ROCKS!

I've got to tell you, if you ever get a game based on a movie, you've GOT to get 'Enter The Matrix' for Play Station 2.
This game is awesome, unlike some movie-based video games which start off good, but seem to go flat after a while, with three levels of skill (easy, normal and hard), and even the 'easy' level is challenging enough to whet your appetite for more.
Motion picture footage is blended in so seamlessly with the game, and it gives you an experience which is breathtaking, despite a few glitches (like an echo which pops up at odd times). The graphics are quite good for the PS2 system (in spite of odd lighting, at times), and this is the best 3rd person shooter game I've played (better than 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City').
The fact that you can play the game either as Niobe or Ghost is also challenging, because even though each character must accomplish the same mission, each of them experiences interesting changes in the adventure which you may miss if you don't catch them.
The action (especially the fighting and hand-to-hand combat) is very realistic, and I was able to get the hang of how to play the game within a few minutes. Also, don't skip over the film footage which is interspersed between the missions, because you can pick up a few clues about what's coming up in the game.
This is definitely worth the money, and the addition of music from the movies (as well as appearances by some of the actors who appeared in the film) make this a really fun game to play.
Get this game ... I promise you won't be sorry.
One of the best Action games Ever- Ben N. at the games

Never has a movie based game been as good as Enter the Matrix. This has very fast paced kung-fu fights, awsome looking slow-motion gunfights, sweet car chases, and adenline-pumping agent encounters. It also has an hour of exclusive footage done with actors from The Matrix: Reloaded and has very close ties with the movie. You cant fully understand the movie without this game, and you cant understand alot of this game without also seeing the movie. The action is uncomparable to any other game on the market of that genre, unlike most action games where you go through each level shooting everything, here you can get up close and do complicated and fast disarm moves and unleash a devistaing series of punches kicks. The focus(Bullet Time) move has never before been used so well in a game. In Max Payne, you could barely see the bullets fly through the air, but in Enter the Matrix they are big, shiny, and leave a trail of soundwaves behind them, making it an awsome experience to dodge them or fire them. Also, when using focus you can run faster, jump inhumanly long distances, run up walls and 360 kick someone of of it, and do many other special moves not available in regular speed. The car chases are not quite as good as those in a James Bond game, but are still pretty good. The interactivity with the enviroment is the thing that stands out from all the other car chases in video games: Streetsigns fall when shot at, those annoying "Your speed is ____, the speed limit is ____" signs explode when driven past at 100mph, windows shatter when you crash into buildings, but there is an awful lot of fog when doing this, and a little amount of innocent traffic in places where there is supposed to be swarms of them, like on the highway. While the car chases arnt perfect, the gunfights are almost so. Focus moves are extremely important to this game, and unlike max payne, is not just a thing to make it look cool. You can barely hit a wall while running and jumping in normal speed, but when you turn on focus, your accurasy boosts much higer because of the slower moving targets, you can pinpoint the heart of a guard after running up a wall and somersaulting off it and then diving headfirst over a deep gap. The slow motion gameplay makes this a blasts, and not only is it used in gunfights, but it also makes your kicks, punches, and throws faster and more stronger, this is very essential when fighting an agent, vampire, or Seraph, in fact its almost impossible to win a boss fight without using a few focus moves somewhere in there. The fighting engine is also great, this could be a great fighting game, only they decided to make it better with the gunfights. There is a wide range of kics, punches, combos, and focus moves, and each one is slightily different whether you have a weapon out or not, for example, when you try a throw move while unarmed, Niobe/Ghost will pick up the opponent and throw them, but while armed, he/she will grab them by the neck, crack it a bit, drop them outward and shoot the opponet in the neck at a point blank range. The liscensing here is also used just as good as the Star Wars series used it's. You will fight many opponents from the Matrix movies, and some that barely made an apperance in reloaded become much more complicated and deep in this game, particualrily the vampires. There are also some heart-pounding agent encounters, imagine, running down the streets of chinatown whith eight agents behind you, all of a sudden, another one jumps out from a window in front, backing away, you quickly turn around and run the only open rode you see and find yourself diving through the window of a tire shop, the owner crouches down and whimpers, you run to the back about to open the door, when you hear some strange noise coming from the owner, you look and an agent stands where the owner was crouching, you elbow open the locked door and quickly run to the pay phone ahead, but all of a sudden someone throws a grenade and it blows up. The chase continues on and eventually you find yourself running across rooftops, sprinting up stairs, and diving through glass. With such great agent chases, forget The Getaway, Enter the Matrix is the most movielike game out now.
I entered but I wanted to stay Longer!
