This game stinks! I hate it! The olny level I liked was a snow one that had two parts to it, I couldent unlock any levels so I olny had 2. The stupit level I also had was this masion thing that was impossible! I hated to stick those things in the vents and of the vents I ALWAYS got caught. Yes, this game does have good video but thats it.
DONT GET!
What's worse? This game or Tom Cruise's ego?

One complaint people had about the movie was that it was almost nothing like the TV show (thanks to Tom Cruise's behind-the-scenes editing to make himself a bigger star). If those people were to play this game, they would probably have an anerism.
This game is some-what modeled after the movie. You're in Prague and trying to get secret files at a party. As you might expect, you have to accomplish tasks assigned to you - you know, pick up a sheet of paper, give it to a guy, walk into a bathroom, put some thing in a drink, really exciting stuff...
...oh wait, I'm sorry. There are two arctic levels beforehand. Never mind. You have to do those first before getting on to the actual film part.
OK, back to the game proper. You enter the KGB headquarters of Prague (didn't know the Czechs were still Communist) and help free a friend of yours before entering the...um...top secret sewer system that...um...happens to be in the KGB embassy because it...makes perfect sense...
There's a really stupid aspect of the game here. You lose your pistol for a dart gun. And guess what? It shoots sleep darts. That's right. That's your weapon for most of the game. A dart gun that puts people to sleep. Did the makers of this game have issues with violence?
The later missions get really annoying. They give you 20 things to do, and its easy to fail them all or get captured (which is a lot worse than getting killed). And then you have to start all over again. Some things are really hard, and they aren't about to hint at you want to do. The fact that quite often the guards wake up from those sleep darts they like to supply you doesn't help at all. I often played levels thinking, "Gee, it'd be great if I could kill some one..."
You may notice I said capturing was worse than getting killed. That's because of two things: 1) if a guard approaches you and points a gun then BAM you lose instantly (yet another sign of Pacifist game-makers) 2) they give you an AMAZING amount of HP, so it's often impossible to get killed. This one time I had the main character standing in the doorway of the KGB headquarters with guards shooting him nonstop. I left the room, got a drink and snack, talked to my sister for a bit, then walked back into my room...and the guy is STILL taking bullets! How is this humanly possible?! And this is on the hardest difficulty level!
This game was such a waste. If I didn't enjoy running and gunning inside the KGB headquarters I would give it one star.
More like an RPG game

I enjoyed playing M:I, but, if U R looking for a good old shoot 'em up gmae, U R barking up the wrong tree. This game has fair graphics,and good sound effects (except for one of the guns), and has an element of brainy-ness to it. U can't just walk in, shoot everybody, and get what U came for. If you blow UR cover, U'll get arrested, and your game is over. That's that. If Ur talking to one of your squadmates, and the 'bag guys' see, U, U'll get arrested. Also, in one level, you'll be given a drug, and it will be hard to move. The screen will go black at intervals, also. So, this game is fun, but if U R looking for a GoldenEye stlye game, wrong one.
Great Game...

MI is a great game. It is challenging, and fun. Even though you can beat the game in a few days in possible mode, impossible mode adds a few difficult challenges that will keep you playing. Overall, it's a great game.

Mission Impossible is a pretty good game. it is more like a spy game than a shooter.but it is still good.
There are 2 difficulty settings in the game. they are Possible & Impossible. Impossible mode is like Possible mode but there is ussually more objectives. I think you should buy this game. the graphics are also pretty good
AWESOME!

This is an awesome game. If you liked the movie, get this game. I have beat it twice and it is still fun. No matter what people say, I think ALL the levels are fun in their own way. This is not violent at all, the people you shoot just fall on the ground and dissapear. This game is MUCH more fun than Goldeneye. Try it!
Why cant i put 0 stars?

This is the most fun game I have ever played on my N64. The graphics are good, the conrol is excellent, and you can play the missions as many times as you want and they never get boring! A definite must-buy.
Not too bad
