Worst game, next to Spiderman

In terms of gameplay and controls alone, I give this game one star. Innumerable loading screens and tips that interrupt the action, confusing and often contradictory control layouts make it nearly impossible to pull off the moves you want... I'd like to go kung-fu on Shiny Entertainment, but even if they were unarmed, I think I'd lose with these controls. Add to this the horrifying graphics and lackluster, crackly audio, and you'll see why this game shames the name Matrix.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME! SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!

I have played this game for 3 hours and am extremely disappointed! The graphics are horrible, just plain UGLY by today's standards. It has a camera system that will give you a headache. I am a big Matrix fan and the story may be interesting but it doesn't do the movie justice. Honestly, this game has the worst graphics I've ever seen on the Gamecube. I am an avid hardcore videogamer and the gameplay itself is nothing new or innovative. It feels like you've "been there and done that in other games" and playing this is not entertaining but frustrating at times. I only wish that Dr. Doak and his team (Goldeneye 007, and Timeplitters 2) had looked over this game.
What were the Wachowski Bros. thinking ???!!!
they just want your ...$$$money$$$
If you are a smart consumer, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

The most incredibly dumb game ever

I own this game and it is way too violent this thing has almost no plot and it is so stupidly animated it gives yo u a headache after the first 2 seconds of game time and I recommend a much more intelligent game like RPGs which are so cool they outshine the martix game a million to zero this game is a waste of money it is not worth it so get some better game that is so much better than this game for example Demi Kids dark or light version

great game

First off i'de like to say that the graphics on this game really suck.second, this game is the what ghost and niobe are doing in the movie so there is no plot. thirdly, its too easy, i beat it in two days playing for at leas an hour each day.All-in-all this game sucks and the Wachosky brother bragged about WAAAAAAAAAy too much. it is a waste of both youre time and money.

Can you say, "rushed?" Yeah, I thought so.

OK. This game was fun. Easy to get into. Every technical aspect of this game was extremely flawed. The movies were laughably horrible, the clipping was bad, graphics were not good. The Gamecube version requires the swapping of discs after about 2 hours of play. The unlockable multiplayer (don't read this as a good thing) was so bad that it literally came down to whoever mashed all the buttons faster won every time without getting hit. The levels ranged from the eerily easy (kill everyone) to the frustrating (protect good guys) to the downright evil (run from Agent Smith). No, the run from Agent Smith level is not cool. If you even get within a few feet of him, he slams you to the ground repeatedly until you die. The last few levels flying the Logos are the worst part of any game in the last decade. I seriously wonder if any of the other reviewers bothered to play this game before reviewing it. This game had definite potential. Given another six months, I'm sure the guys at Atari could have come up with a real gem, but this game is worth a rent for the scene in which Monica Belluci and Jada Pinkett Smith kiss. Nothing more.

Bad Game Based On A Great Movie

Anyone who gave this game a high score doesn't know what they are talking about. First off, the controls are not as great as they should have been. They are not terrible but I have played games with much better controls. And the fighting could also use some major improvement. You basically just tap the kick and punch buttons until the person you are fighting is dead. You have very little control over what types of moves you can do. Gunplay is very cool and very well done, I must say that. Also the Focus feature is very awesome when combined with gunplay. But the driving levels left me very disappointent. I was expecting so much because they should have been really cool but you basically just have to hold down the gas. There is very little threat from other enemies. Also I must add this. Near the end of the game you are running through some buildings in the city trying to get away from Agent Smith. Now this sounds very cool but ultimately it is very frustrating. The arrow got me confused and often ran me into dead ends. I'm willing to forgive that, but when you get stuck with Agent Smith and he somehow is able to repeatedly pick you up and throw you (even if you are not standing directly near him)8 times in a row, you want to throw your controller at the TV. One cool element is the movie sequences. That is the main reason I rented the game. It does tie in with the Reloaded story and it's cool that they got the actors to do their parts. But all of the stunts that you want to do which would be cool (i.e. jumping through windows, taking on Agent Smith etc.) are all played out for you using in-game cinemas.
If you are a Matrix fan then you have to rent this game just to get the whole story. But DO NOT buy this game. At least not for $50. And if you are not a Matrix fan this game will not make you one. My advice: rent it for the Revolutions trailer at the end if that interests you. Otherwise spend you money on something MUCH better like Metroid Prime or Wind Waker.

Atari has truely outdone themselves

What can I say, I didn't truely hate this game with every fiber of my being; just most of it. Granted, on easy, the game had a lot of potential. My friends and I would pass the wavebird around the room taking turns on every level, which turned out to be for the most part, about 5 or so minutes a piece. That is unless you play against Agent Smith, then he backs you into a corner and pounds you into the ground repeatedly. Boring. Don't even get me stated on the ladder animation. If you use the focus while climbing the ladder, it looks pretty good. I don't reccomend climbing without the focus, it's painful to see. Just like every other game, there are cheats, in this game "hacks" that unlocked a multi player section. I almost had a siezure. I being a button masher, won almost every round due to repeated slamming of the L,R,A, and the occasional B button. I didn't give it 1 star, because face it, it wasn't Brute Force.

History of video games?! My butt!

I wanted more out of Enter the Matrix. Not some simple kiddie game rated T for no reason. I awaited for this game in the GR (game-revolution, where I work) mail box so I could snag it! But I snagged [stuff]. The game runs level based, like usual, and gives you two options for players, Ghost or Niobe. They each have the same missions except for car parts. Any way, the graphics are poor for the GCN. The focus button is the only cool part of the game. The like of different fighting skills is making the game boring. You don't even get to keep your guns every level. They should look at Turok: Evolution for help with that. All the missions sound hard, but tend to be too easy even on hard! Shooting people or beating the [stuff] out of them is cool, but lacks. Some enemies even get stuck in the wall. Ghost got stuck in the wall! That is weird! To die, just stand there and throw grenades at the ground! You can't die because the S.W.A.T. can't shoot! Well, have fun watching wour mash of polygons run around. Scare you later!

An Okay Game....

First of all the graphics in this game aren't all that great. I mean I know Gamecube doesn't have the best graphics but I didn't that graphics could look that bad for a contemporary game system! Also the game has lots of levels but is too easy. I mean I beat normal mode in two days! Anyway for the good things its sort of cool if you master all the focus moves for fighting enemies. Anyway the game's okay. I would recomend the Lord of the Rings Two Towers instead of this game. Oh well, if your a true matrix fan get it if not get another game.
