I just played the demo to this game... well actually I has to quit. I like violent video games and all... most of the time. But this was ultra violent and ultra bloody. The GTA games were violent but cartoonish- and they gave you something else to do; car races, etc.

This game is a non-stop killing machine of blood, bombs and guts. It takes quite a bit to turn my stomach... and this game does it.

Very Fun and Exciting Shooter!!

Don't believe the 1 star review. This game is very exciting and fun and it includes some really great levels. There is some great Slo-Mo camera shots.

You will really enjoy this game if you like a good Shooter..

Worthy of a Purchase

Urban Chaos: Riot Response is a great example of how a game can
be versatile and exciting. In the game you are a T-Zero Response Op. aka "Cop". You are put through many different scenarios and have to make split decisions on your own. There are many different weapons that are Leathal and Non-Leathal. You can also use the enemies weapon on themselves. With the plot strongly devoted to Police Officers, Paramedics, and Firefighters, working together to take out a middle eastern terrorist group, I am suprised the media hasn't shown light on this game. This is the best first person shooter since Half-Life to hit the Playstation 2.

Solid FPS

Some FPS try to innovate things, and fail miserably. This one however, plays it safe. Urban Chaos really adds nothing new to the genre, other than the ability to use a riot shield. It was a nice gimmick.

The game is short, just a little over 15 stages, some optional side quests. All in all, I'd say about an 11 hour experience.

The game is downright gritty, obscene, gory, and I'm hooked.
If you like violent games, pick it up.

this is a good FPS with a few problems

well i just finished the demo of this game and have to say its very fun basicly your a cop thats going to protect your city alot of people say its relly bloody but i just went to the options and turned off the blood and if the langue gets to you you can just turn the volume down, but for the game play its very fun and has some cool things to do like a hostage situation were when the bad guy trys to reload it will go into slow motion to give u a better chance to shoot him but if you get too close then he will panic and shoot the hostage i also liked that extra mission objective that i think it said if i did it then i would get an extra amo clip for my pistol that shield relly comes in handy too so relly this is a incridble fun shooter and if u turn off the blood not relly that gory or bloody. i hope this review help some.

Big fan of people flying off roofs and out windows

The title, the implications, and the M for Mature rating drew me to this title, a solid shooter from Eidos about...urban chaos.

Urban Chaos: Riot Response about sums it up. Set in some city (say, New York, of course), you play a member of an elite SWAT-type, special-anti-terror-whatever unit charged with taking back the streets from ultraviolent, insane street gangs.

The bottom line is a lot of shooting, and thankfully, lots of blood (hence the rating, this is not a game for kiddies). Heads and arms even come flying off in all that mayhem, always a welcome detail, sadly absent from the more cartoon-like violence of many war games. Of course, the game includes an angle to (possibly) discourage you from the Rambo approach all the time. Since the `T-Zero' unit you work for is on shaky public-relations ground (it's expensive and unproven and prone to the kind of shooting reserved for such games) you have the option and incentive to take gang members alive. This will improve the `image' of T-Zero, and you get to electrocute guys with a powerful tazer.

But where's the fun in that? Like Bronson in Death Wish 3, when facing an insane gang with no discernable goals beyond chaos, you have to blow them all away. But, at least it's your choice.

If you love 80s action movies, where the art of seeing criminal scum being blown away in slow-motion was perfected, then this was made with you in mind. The game includes gang-death cut-scenes, meaning that certain gang members, when getting blasted, go flying this way and that in slo-mo. It's great---you shoot the guy at different angles, and he'll go flying off the roof, against a wall, through an elevator shaft, arms flailing, blood splattering, etc. See? Truly made with the Death Wish 3 fan in mind. But don't worry, as Arnold once said, "They were all bad".

The Burners, the evil street gang, are the perfect enemy: mysterious, faceless (they all wear modern Jason-esque hockey masks), and brutal (they don't seem to have an agenda except causing chaos and mindless violence). As if you cared. The guns are solid, the standard-issue handgun quite good, the double-barrel shotgun classic, and some oddities like meat cleavers thrown in. The other angle is the control you get over `supporting' characters like firemen and medics---you get to order them around to heal people, break down doors, put out fires, and perform other services that facilitate your blowing away of various thugs, evildoers, and miscreants.

The message couldn't be more clear--a future dystopia of complete corporate and government dominance, of disaffected, faceless masses killing people and trying to destroy the system, and of brutal, secretive, and suspicious enforcers called upon to restore `order'--is a recurrent, dependable and winning formula for violent shoot-em'ups. One decade it's paranoia, the next decade it's the all-too-real specter of `terrorism', but these are only minor tweaks to the presentation. Rest assured that even if the world WERE one day invaded by aliens, or if `the system' broke down, we would still get sophisticated, well-produced, predictable but fun and extremely violent video games out of it all.

Recommended for fans of M-rated shooters, it's not terribly difficult, but at the reduced cost it's worth it. Also has a nice multiplayer accompanying up to 8 people, which moves reasonably well.

Its a very bloody, gory, fast, fun shooter. Its not original in any way, just really fun and the story is quite short, but to get medals increases the replay value a LOT. Good game.
