Secret Service Ultimate Sacrifice is literally filled with constant timed puzzles. For the average gamer just looking for a first person shooter, this can completely stop down the enjoyment of the game and end up in total frustration. I have no idea why the makers of this game decided to do this.

In order to proceed through each level you must deactivate bombs and hack into computers. Each time you do this a mini game pops up with a circuit board puzzle that consists of power sources, circuit chips, and connectors. You are supposed to keep flipping each chip and connector around until all of the circuit chips light up. And, you must do this each time in about less than one minute! This can really get frustrating with each puzzle getting more difficult and each time the mini game ending in a bomb exploding or failure to hack a computer.

Each of these puzzles is random too with the power source and chips in different locations so a walkthrough would not help at all. There are no cheat codes for these highly annoying puzzles either. The game maker should have at least given the option to turn off the timer but no. Even on the easiest difficulty you must solve these in a matter of seconds. And there are a bunch of these everywhere. You can't complete each level until you solve these.

But, there is a solution to the timed puzzle thing. You can run a trainer that will allow you to freeze time while in the puzzles. There is a +8 Trainer out there with a "Freeze Time" option that works great. Just google it on the internet to find this trainer. The graphics are good and the AI is really fun to shoot with very realistic movements. The weapons are good too. With the trainer, this is a much more enjoyable game.

The game is fairly good. The only problem I have with it is the "mandatory" puzzles that one must complete in a certain time span. These mandatory puzzles seem to be quite contrary to the purpose one buys a game like this -- which is to have a fast, shoot-em-up type of game. Nevertheless, the game is fairly decent, and I recommend it.

This game would have been a decent game if it were not broken the crosshairs dont work when your shooting at your enemies its almost impossible to kill your enemies,I literally had to point at the ceiling to kill a guy in front of me, this game is really broken and as far as i could tell there was no patch to fix this problem. Not worth a buck

I purchased this a few mnths ago, I have a brand new desktop with 3 gig processor, and 4 gigs of ram. It also
has a decent video card. Not 'top-of-the-line', but fairly powerful. I installed this game, and attempted to play
it, but the pc STRUGGLES to run it adequately. Almost impossible to control your character, shoot, follow what is going on, progress in the game, etc. I'm disappointed. I still want to play it, but I would not recommend this pc version. Maybe find a copy of the (original) Xbox version instead.

This game is not worth the trouble, it has such high requirements nothing but a supercomputer can play it without lots of lag and freezing. And for those of you who have supercomputers do not waste it on this game.

I bought this game for my son , he says it is alot of fun , we were very pleased with how fast the game arrived.
