Product Description

You belong to an elite force fighting against global counter-terrorism. Your team is made up of two crack agents poised to react to any threat. Stealth Owl is an infiltration expert, whose skills are accuracy and skydiving. Raptor uses weapons of mass destruction and favours close combat. Your main objective is to dismantle the NEMESIS network and retrieve the stolen technology. But by changing the chemical properties of certain proteins, the terrorists have made their fighters much more aggressive? The game benefits from a cutting edge game engine and a specific physics system. You can destroy any kind of environment, requisition military vehicles and feel right at the centre of the action. For the first time, physics will have a major impact on how you play the game. The weapons used in-game are the result of scientific research: amongst the varied arsenal are electromagnetic bombs and holographic gadgets to destabilise your enemies, LCD corner-shot machine guns, heat-seeking rocket launchers, drones, infra-red vision, sonar vision, etc.; brace yourself against the blast of each explosion, more real than reality!

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good 3rd/1st person shooter, August 15, 2005

I took a chance on this game when I noticed it at my local game store because it was $15 & the graphics on the box looked good. This game has a Syphon Filter feel (3rd person view) and a Metal Gear Solid look (muted colors, floating ammo/health packs). Yes, this game very much wants to be Splinter Cell (one of the characters you play looks a lot like Sam Fisher from the back) without the emphasis on stealth. At first, the controls were a bit awkward (you are constantly in 'aim' mode like SF), especially in the FPS view. What carries the game is the challenge (having to replay from the last checkpoint), the graphics (like most xbox games), and the variety (the hovercraft is cool!). This game has succeeded in getting into my head when I'm not playing it (like right now...). Definitely worth picking up a copy until the next high-profile game comes out. Fans of Splinter Cell, Killzone, and MGS should enjoy this one.

This is an exciting FPS game and quite a bargain compared to other "big name" shooters currently on the market. The plot is typical; you are out to save the world from some dark conspiracy by shooting or blowing up everything in sight. The graphics are good though not state of the art and the controls are acceptable though kind of touchy. The biggest two drawbacks are the save game feature and the sound. The game will only save at the end of a level and with the levels being quite long and difficult, you find yourself starting over a lot. The sound is good, but I experienced some cutting out of the sound quite often. Even so, it is well worth the price if you enjoy the FPS genre.
