awsome game with one flaw

i would have given this game a five star rating but it had one

down fall, the controls. ...

... in the option screen u can change the pre set controls to

other made up controls but then the other control options are

even worse. but besides the controls the game itself is off the

hook. the graphics are great, the music is great, the game play

is great, and the weapons in this game are just too much.

perfect dark wished it had weapons like these. i mean there are

tons of weapons to unlock. the game is just completely awsome,

but like i said before it's major down fall is the control

options. i hope i haven't stop anybody from buying this game.

it's probably the best team shooting game on the market today,

until u get use to the controls.

I was expecting something a lot better.

Well, let me just tell you what I think. The game is garbage.

When I first put the game in the console, I got so excited that I was going to play a fps for dreamcast. When the game started, I chose to go with the training missions first. But later, I began to get a little upset because they were incredibly easy. 15 minutes later, I chose to go with the regular combat missions. But what really blew my top was that the combat missions were just like the training missions. The first mission objective was to collect three coins.....the coins were in a straight line right in front of you. I didnt fire one bullet.
The day after I bought it with my hard earned dollars, I wanted to return it, but I could't because I broke the seal. DAMN!!!

Over all, I give Outtrigger a two star rating because of the multiplayer option, however, you only can carry three weapons and you die incredibly fast, bairly giving you any action or reaction time. Its almost like a one hit kill game. (Don't try to run from a guy with a flamethrower.)
Also, the arenas are so small, you can't hide or even think about what to plan against an opponent.

Don't make the same mistake I did and buy the game just by looking at screenshots.

It's GREAT --- if you don't have the wrong expectations

Outtrigger is not like Unreal Tournament or Quake 3, so don't expect it to. Its arenas are much smaller. Action is faster, more arcade-like. Graphics and sounds are great. It is very fun, especially with the online mode. Just don't expect it to be "like the others".

I didn't like it.

This game has pretty good graphics but the gameplay sucks. It is so hard to aim because you have to use the D-pad and the joystick at the same time in order to aim while moving. They should of made it like Golden Eye (james bond) where you move with the joystick and you hold down a trigger to aim. The missions are just going around shooting people then collecting a coin after you kill them. And the arenas are tiny. If you like little Deathmatch games with the most annoying aimer I would suggest it. But if you have a nintendo stick to Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.

Fun and Challenging missions??? Nope.

I got this game because i read a lot of reviews and most of them said it was a good game. when i first played the Novice missions, it took about 10-15 minutes to complete all 15. and the missions were just basic training. When i got into the level 2 missions they were basically the same. the boards are just 1 room which is no fun. i bought this game thinking it would be some what similar to Goldeneye 007 for N64. I was wrong. the controls are very difficult to use. the D-pad makes you move. the Analog stick moves your aim. the L and R trigger turn you and the L and R on the D-pad make you side step. Very confusing in controlls. I would highly recommend renting this game, if you even want to take that chance. The 2-4 player games are just the same you can play on teams but since the board you are on is so small, 2-4 players is no fun. Not a good game to add to your collection.

a really top quality game

This the only game that i want to buy before i played. It looks like a really good game. Sega has outdone it self with this one. I can wait.

Soo Awesome!

General/Summary: This game in my mind is intended solely for multi-player and particularly on-line play. The arcade and single player missions are not very fun and actually are rather silly. If you play the game you will know what I mean. They basically are training for playing on-line and multi-player. To even call them missions would be exaggerating. The multi-player mode is pretty generic. You either have a time limit where you wipe out as many enemies as possible within that time or in the other mode you are given a total numer of frags and who ever reaches it first wins. Thats it folks. I'm not sure even playing with friends over would be that much fun with only two games to play. On-line is the only way to go but its not much more interesting. All in all I was very disappointed. For those parents out there who are debating letting kids play, the game is rated "T" and there is no blood. Those gamers expecting a Quake 3, Soldier of Fortune or Unreal Tournament in terms of options, weapons and carnage should stay clear.

Gameplay: I would say this game would be nearly impossible to play effectively without a keyboard and mouse. You do have choices of many different controller set-ups but for some unexplained reason they don't show you that set-up as it would be on your controller. Because of this it is totally hit & miss. "D1" I would say is the best and closely emulates similar FPS games. There also seems to be some problem with collision detection. At times you can shoot at point blank range and miss. Shooting at a distance is worse. Its not always horrible but when you need your shot to really count in a tough spot it is frustrating. The arenas are all VERY small. This no doubt piles the presuure on to keep moving and shooting but it seems like you are playing in a hangar as far as size goes. The arenas look great and there are some nice spots for cover and shooting but as I said they are small. There are also only three weapons per character. They are rifle, grenade & a special weapon. Thats it.

Graphics: I can't knock the game in this department. The visuals are outstanding and I think make full use of the DC's power. The arenas are very varied and look good but are small. There is definitely no time to look around and admire them. You need to keep moving to survive.

Sound: Sound is average at best. Sound effects are appropriate, nothing more, and the limited voice work is mediocre. The music is also average.

oh please...

Ok when i first saw this game i thought it would be pretty cool...but it's not (at least in my opinion). To start with the good stuff the graphics r pretty good and the weapons are animated nicely. thats just bout it. The single player missions arent even real missions its like a huge boot-camp. all you have to do is shoot peeps and collect stupid coins. so basically the whole game is intended for multiplayer. but since the multiplayer has only two diffrent scenarios (compare to Perfect dark which has like 15). So even if you play 2 player it gets boring pretty fast. the controls are the weirdest i have ever seen in a game but luckily you can change them to a semi-okay setting. Personally i think that if your not going to go online you shouldn't buy this game. It just doesnt have enough stuff that you can do in single player (i beat all single player missions on every difficulty in one afternoon).

This game [stinks].

Do not buy. It is a waste of money. It is so boring and repetitive. I played it once for ten minutes and never played again, it was so bad. A complete waste of a good CD. It is not at all like Golden Eye if you are wondering. I hope this saves you [amt].
