Product description
Amazon.com
Fracture advances players to the year 2161, where the effects of global warming have altered the planets landscape, and a clash in ideologies over human enhancement places society on the threshold of war. In utilizing the core gameplay mechanic of Fracture, a destructive next-generation technology known as Terrain Deformation, players are equipped with an arsenal of futuristic weaponry to strategically reshape their surroundings on the fly. Every action they perform dynamically reshapes the earth in ways no videogame has ever seen.
Players set foot on the frontlines of this epic conflict in the role of Jet Brody, a demolitions expert fighting for the Atlantic Alliance, who rely upon cybernetic enhancement. Pitted against the genetically enhanced soldiers of the Pacifican army, players will experience a revolution in 22nd-century warfare. When Brody throws a tectonic grenade onto a level battlefield, the ground blasts upward providing access to otherwise unreachable areas or providing cover against approaching enemies. Surrounded on all sides by Pacifican forces, Brody heaves a vortex grenade, creating a swirling tornado-like mass of boulder, dirt and debris to dispatch his foes. These are just a few samples of the possibilities for Terrain Deformation. Players not only change the battlefield they change the face of the battle itself. Reshape the battlefield with terrain shattering weapons: Experience a dynamic battlefield that is unique every time you play. Use neverbefore-seen weapons to fracture, crater, freeze, or elevate the earth. Unleash a subterranean torpedo toward your enemy and literally blast the earth from beneath his feet. For the first time, players can mold a war zone for an advantage to push the attack or mount a defense. Experience a story of betrayal and revenge: Follow the journey of a patriotic Atlantic Alliance soldier when an act of treason launches him into the lethal battlefield of the 22nd century, as forces wage a battle of genetics vs. cybernetics. In a war that divides loyalties and tests the bonds of country and family, this soldiers discoveries will ultimately decide the fate of North America and perhaps the world. Multi-player & co-operative play allows the terrain deforming battles to rage on: Choose the side of the genetically enhanced Pacificans or the cybernetically powerful Atlantic Alliance, then jump online and exploit your chosen sides advantages as Terrain Deformation and Genetic vs. Cybernetic elements allow for endless hours of fun with friends online. Fight for control of familiar locations and landmarks: The last World Wars were fought in Europe, but the next great global war will be fought on American soil. Battle in famous locations across the United States. Defend the Atlantic Alliance in Washington, DC, fight the decisive battle for control of Pacifica in the basin of the now-empty San Francisco bay and uncover the secret that will determine the worlds fate in the Southwest Desert.Product information

I also never saw any advertisements for this on tv or anything back when it first came out so obviously bad marketing to.
Well, now that LucasArts doesn't really exist anymore cause Disney owns them, and doesn't care to do anything but pump out new Star Wars movies to get money out of it, I doubt they will come back to this series. They wont even come out with some decent Star Wars games, even ones that are already half finished (Star Wars 1313) or make ones, that if they were at least as good as the first ones, they would sell really well (Star Wars Republic Commando 2 anyone?)
Well that's my review hope it helped.
First off the enemies are terrible. There are eight different types of enemies and seven of them are just horrible. You have the normal infantry, who aren't terrible and are there to pretty much be cannon fodder, no real threat. Then there are guys with rifles which aren't bad when there's a few of them, but once it gets above four or five at many different angles it gets ridiculous. They get thrown in within the fourth zone in the first level. Next are guys that just suck. These fellows have ROCKET LAUNCHERS and can jump around like little demonic frog people, making them almost impossible to shoot! Our next contenders are shotgun dudes who's armor reflects bullets and the only place to shoot them is their oddly green heads. To do this you must get almost within melee range, in which case you are dead from the aforementioned shotguns. Then there are guys with a black widow-like gun (I'll explain the weapons coming up here). These are completely armored and tough to kill, so it's better to leave them till last and take out the other enemies. They shoot globs of green gloop (say that five times fast!) that explode at random times screwing your life over. Above this they can shoot about eight of them out at a time. Wonderful, right? Cheetahs are a cool animal right? Sure! Just not great mixed with people. These guys can pretty much teleport and do so at least eight times a minute, constantly shooting you and making life terrible. Lastly there are weird minotaur like creatures called Bollas. They have three weak spots (back, stomach, and face) that you have to shoot as they charge at you and throw large boulders at you that follow you around if you don't double jump out of their way. It seems like they tried to make these like boss battles, when in reality there are about three of them that you kill the exact same way and they're really just infuriating. Not to mention that you are facing the entire Pacifican army ALONE, minus scarce occasions where you get a two person backup team that is completely incompetent and either dies within the first minute of the fight or stands there like a prop. This is really helpful when you are completely swamped with twenty enemies, tiny ammo clips, and are forced to respawn every three minutes.
As for weapons, they aren't much better. You start off with an Alliance machine gun that you must discard as soon as you run out of your first round of ammo, because there is no ammo for it anywhere. This kind of makes sense though seeing as you are in the middle of enemy territory, but really? Due to this you have to pick up the Pacifican machine gun which, I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it feels like it has a shorter range. The reason for discarding Alliance weapons is that thankfully you can scavenge ammo for their own weapons off of the people you kill. There are a variety of other weapons with very limited uses. There's a sniper rifle you get to use a total of once, the shotgun, the rifle you can actually get some good use out of, the missile launcher you almost never use, the black widow which shoots multiple explosives you can detonate at will (this one is used almost exclusively in the final boss fight), a peculiar weapon called a Lodestone rifle which fires little sucky things that pull enemies and objects toward it. The grenades are the best weapon out there and what they do to the environment is ridiculous! By the end of a firefight the ground is up and down EVERYWHERE! You can barely find a patch of ground that hasn't been deformed.
Speaking of it, the terrain deformation! I'll admit that it was a VERY good idea, and I did enjoy it (it was about the only part of this game that I DID like), but it had limited use as well as everything else in this game. The terrain deformation technology is good for about four things. You can use it to create cover, which is helpful if your shield gets low. It is useful when you need to get through areas that were specifically designed for it, such as when the entrance to a tunnel is covered by ground and you clearly have to lower it. Occasionally you'll have the chance to kill an enemy or destroy and objective in on of the "puzzles" with it by pushing an enemy or objective into a ceiling, shield, or power socket. Once the suit is upgraded about a quarter of the way through the game you can also "double jump" with it, which actually just pulls the ground up towards your feet, catapulting you upward.
**SPOILERS**
The plot and story are really bad in this game! Kind of a spoiler, but not really as it is the opening cinematic, a random glacier split the USA in half, somehow creating a sea with the coastlines being Montana to New Mexico and Wisconsin to Mississippi (those states being covered in water, that is). Those on the Pacific side (west) started working on genetics and splicing human DNA with animals (Splice anyone?), while the Atlantic side (east) went more in the way of technology. They all got angry at each other and the Pacificans rebelled and this sets the plot for the game. Thank God the plot is so short though, because this game was awful. The game takes place over a mere THREE levels with MAYBE ten zones each, more or less a few.
Please, save your money for a better game than this, because if you dislike ragequitting, this game is not for you.
Well it's clearly obvious when after playing halfway into this game its somewhat of a joke. I sincerely feel sorry for the folks that actually paid full price for this game because it isn't even worth $15.00 at THE MOST!!
Some of you may enjoy this game, but I know this was below average and at times felt like the game was rushed and poorly constructed towards the end.
Don't have any high expectations when you're planning on buying or playing this game. It's just another boring game on the market.
