This game is gonna rock Nintendo Gamecube. This I personly think this is better than James Bond even though I didn't yet get my hands on Nightfire. First person shooters are great. I'm a big fan of first person shooter. If you like James Bond and Metroid Prime you will go crazy for this game!

TOO MUCH BADMOUTH, irrasistable game, though!

This game plays wonderful. The missions John has to carry out and how he has to do them are great. There is a BIG downside to it all, though. The bad-mouthing. If you get out of a conversation without hearing the f-word once or twice, your lucky. The game has WAY too much swearing. This game is DEFINITELY not for younger gamers. Except for the vulgarity, the game is so irresistable. The graphics are okay, but the ability to talk to anybody, to sweet mission objectives, awesome weapons, GREAT depth to the story line - IM so confused - Do i love the game or not? IF this game had skipped out on all the badmouthing, I would have bought this yestorday. In case your wondering, I HAVE played the game (Ive rented it for a week, now) UNLIKE the other reviews on here. So listen to a guy thats played it, TOO MUCH LANGUAGE TO BUY! Its a good one to rent, if you don't have a problem with "saying everything you hear".

A game that is not easy

This game is for the gamers who enjoy challenges. Die Hard includes great graphics and amazing game play. I recently bought it and immediatly loved it. And don't think the game forgot classic characters such as John McClane. In most of the missions it stealth and gunpower. Right of the bat the first level has so much action. Before you go to the first level you can train if you want. In training you can use a shooting range. You even use a paintball gun. So I give Die Hard 5 Stars.

Better than the reviews say

When I first saw the advertizement for Die Hard Vendetta in one of my magazines I was really excited because the first Die Hard is one of my favorite movies. Then I saw a review about it, which said it was terrible. The worst review I have ever seen for a game before. I thought to myself that the reviews aren't right a lot of the time though still hesitated. I went to the store to rent a game. I decided to rent Die Hard first, but then I switched it with Metroid Prime because I still wasn't sure about it. Finally, I switched Metroid Prime back with Die Hard, and decided I would play it first. I put it in and saw that it was ok. I was a bit unimpressed by the first level because of the very easy targeting system, though I did think it was cool that I could talk to anyone. Then I played the second one. This level and every level after it have many puzzles and challenges, which changed my mind completely about the game. It's great! The puzzles can be quite annoying at times. That's why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. I could never get past the Tuna Factory level. I can't sneak onto the truck!! AHH! Being Stealth is hard. You could imagine how frustrating it can be. The dialogue in this game is hilarious just because I've seen the movie, and a lot of the jokes relate to the movie, though the language is the worst I've ever heard in a game. It relates to the movie in that aspect too. But that's why the movie is rated R because it's not suitable for young viewers. Just as this game is rated M because it is not suitable for young gamers. All in all, it is a very good game once you get past the strong language and blood. I haven't bought it yet, but I probably will soon. I have to get past that Tuna level!

Too much swearing!

Jeez laweez! there is way too much cursing in this game. its almost as if every sentence said must contain at least a hundred curses. the game is fun, though.

Disappointing; Rent first!

*Die Hard Vendetta seems like a cool idea at first: a game based on the "Die Hard" movies as a first person shooter with an entirely new storyline. However, it ends up as a disappointment to anyone who has ever played superior first-person shooter games like Timesplitters 2 or any of the James Bond games.
*The graphics of this game are the worst I have seen on the Gamecube. Gameplay graphics are "ok", but the cut-scene graphics are absolutely terrible. Why even bother with the cut-scenes? The storyline is ridiculous, but that wouldn't bother me if the game offered more in the gameplay department.
*Controls can be very frustrating, falling from what seems like very short distances can take away more life than you expect. But even with these frustrating controls, the game turns out to be very, very easy. You could beat it in a day if you want.
*However, there are some cool things. Talking to individuals you come across can be very entertaining and helpful. Some of the objectives you pick up on your missions are actually pretty fun. The "auto-aim" is not as annoying as it can be in other first-person shooter games.
*In short, I'd advise you to rent this game first. It is certainly not the best, or most entertaining, shooter on the market. The language in the game is very strong, as if they added many excuses to drop the "f-bomb" just because they could. If you're a die-hard fan of the "Die Hard" series, then you might want to check it out. If not, you probably shouldn't bother.

I have recently bought this game and have been mostly satisfied. I gave this game a 4 because some of the levels are quite challenging. In particular I had trouble with the tuna level just as another gamer has. As of [date]. I have still not beat it. I also gave this game a 4 because it has strong language using evrey word in the book. If you are a parent you might want to consider this. Over all, I thought this was a great game but the auto aim can be annoying when you are trying to take out 1 guy that has a gun to a hostage and take out his partner thus making the 1 with the gun panic and shoot the hostage.

Very Amazing

I saw hundreds of reviews on Die Hard Vendetta and most of them were bad. So I was in Best Buy the other day and saw it for [$$] bucks so I just picked it up. First of the flames and graphics are nice. Gamepro gave them a 1.5 out of 5 and it is not true. It is alot more better then The Sum Of All Fears I can tell you that. Well anyways I decided to check out what it had for guns wow over 20 diffrent weapons and gear. You get nightvision and other real cool gadgets. Now the story is very good for a movie game and everything I mean movie games never turn out good. The charecter models in the game are very nice looking and detailed. The controls are actually pretty nice not Timesplitters 2 but there nice lot's of options. The swairs get bad and nasty in this game. There is alot of blood even from you when you get hit. The best part about this game is you can grab anyone besides civlians and either arrest them get information out of them shoot them in the head or snap there neck. It is a pretty sick game but very good. I would say don't hesitate get Die Hard Vendetta it needs to be on your shelf. Oh yeah you need alot of stealth in this game also, and you have plenty of options to do that. When you do get this you will love the bullet cam, man is it awsome.
