Do you remember the first x-files game on the PS1? Well, forget about that. This game is actually good. Black ops outdid themselves on this title, sparkling graphics, superior sound and an over all fun gaming experience. This game shows nothing but promise and it's only $30! I am telling you this is a $30 very well spent with, DVD like content you can unlock and separate stories for Mulder and Scully there is plenty of reasons to play this again so go get it today!

Beware of any new video game that is discounted from the typical $49.99 pricing. This game had so much potential, but the poor camera angles, the slow game play and the ripoff of Resident Evil makes this game a huge disappointment for this avid gamer and X-File fan and the only reason I gave this game two stars is because of the voice talents of Gillian and David.

My wife & I loved it. It was suspenseful enough for us to want to keep the porch lights on around our wooded area home. It is simular to the Silent Hill games but a nice twist for the X-Files to play Mulder or Scully. I would recomend buying it for the price. Plus it gives the fan some more storyline to chew on until the next piece of the story line is released for the world to expose.

I would divide video games into 4 groups:

Group I: The big stuff is right and the small stuff is right. These are the truly great games, like GTA 3 and Halo.

Group II: The big stuff is wrong and the little stuff is right. These are fun, if ultimately unfullfilling games. I would put Bully in this category. The concept wasn't great, but they did well with it to make a fun game.

Group III: Bad big picture and bad details. I've never actually played a game like this, but I assume that they exist.

Group IV: The big picture is good, but the details are lacking. This is what this game is, and it is the type of game that annoys me to no end. Think Fable or pretty much every title put out by EA Sports. That it COULD be a very good game is clear in playing, but that the makers simply didn't put enough effort into the details of the game to make it great. Since, in the end, it disappoints so frequently it isn't even good.

So, let me talk a bit about what is wrong with the game.

First, it isn't really in a genre. Rather, it flirts with elements of different genres (Action, puzzle, etc), but not enough of any to provide interesting gameplay.

Second, they tried to have more deatil for the main characters than they could pull off. The result was a very zombie-like, Mulder and Scully...

Third, the camera angles were handled horribly. It is one thing to have a pure 2rd-person perspective. However, the changes in camera location (and often having them flip 180 degress!) was terrible. You would be running and the camera would cut and throw off your direction. This is especially difficult during action scenes such as the fight with the sherriff...

I could go on, but I won't. This game is acceptable for an X-Files fan, but under no circumstances should anyone else buy it. Even X-Files fans will be more disappointed than pleased...

This game is what the x-fans asked for.
The plot is very dark, the scenarios are very good, andits all fun.

My only complaints (because this game is not perfect), is that in the end of it, the story crossed the line, and some will see it a bit "unrealistic" (x-files unrealistic of course).

Also the other complaint is at the end, when you have to kill the main boss.Its very very very (add another very) to kill, and Im not kidding, if you spent 4hs to solve the game, you will spend 3 to 5 to kill this dude, because its a convination of skills you learn by the hard way, meaning playing it over and over again.This gives you a sour taste in the mouth when you win it, rather that make you feel you acomplished the mission.

Other pro is the fact you can have two somewhat different games stories, because in some parts, if you play with Mulder, Scully goes in a different path, and do others things, things that you will do when you use Scully, and Mulder goes on its own.

In resume, its a great game, and you will be satisfied by the time you reach the final boss.My sugestion is that you burn the disc, and avoid to suffer 5hs kicking the TV, because you was 1 punch away to kill the boss, and you pressed the hit button, but the machine didnt responded, and the boss ripped your head off.

Sooner than you thought!

Well, the X-Files is back...in videogame form at least. And it was well worth the wait. As an X-Phile, I am extremely happy with the game, and I recommend it to all X-Philes. For the avid gamer (but not necessarily a fan of the show), you will definitely enjoy this game. It is a lot of fun, and creepy at the same time. It really draws you in, and it's not some walk in the park. Well worth taking a look at. One of my favorites already.

I think it's a fun game.. xD In my opinion the graphics are very good and I think it's pretty neat that you can choose between Mulder and Scully as being your main character of the story. Overall it's very creative, though the first episode kinda reminds me of parasite eve or something (*cough* I've never played that game but I remember seeing trailers for it way back when). Yeah but still.. It's fun kicking zombie-butt..! Literally sometimes. ^^;

I especially recommend this game for all ze wonderful X-Philes out there who happen to own a PS2. =D It's fuuuuun...
