Ok, first of all, some levels of this game are way hard, some are way fun. You have to save on your own (no autosave) and it only saves to the last checkpoint. But the multiplayer is amazing, first of all the levels are incredibly varied and have plenty of extras like body armor, helmets, and somewhat hidden weapons. You can play team deathmatch, with bots on your team or against you. My wife and I play both of us on blue team versus an easy bot on red team, hopefully we will get better! But being able to have bots on your team if you want and being able to customize their difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard) makes the game endlessly replayable. Don't listen to any naysayers, this is probably the funnest FPS we've played! And the cartoon look makes it more interesting in multiplayer than Timesplitters. I don't know why.

XIII is a somewhat rare first person shooter(1. because it's on the gamecube, 2. because it's cell shaded) that sort of flew under the radar.
Natuarlly, the gamecube has always lacked in that department with all the bigger, popular action titles going to the ps2 and xbox. however XIII is a big step in the right direction for the gamcube.
XIII is a first person shooter that is cell shaded, and has a 1970's crime show approach. I say that because of the funky soundtrack, and because it has comic book style cut scenes, with little words that jump on screen when you shoot somebody, like "pow" and 'Boom". Kind of like "Max Payne" for the ps2.
The gameplay aspect of the game is good. However the storyline can be a little confusing at first. The plot is that you have been found half dead on a east coast beach with no memory of what happend or any sense of who you are. The only clue you have to getting your life and memory back is the roman numeral XIII tatooed on your chest. There are plenty of weapons and little gadgets to help you on your quest. controls are better than i expected, but the main character can be a little slow at switching weapons in a gun battle. However one thing i really didn't like was how often you die in the game, and it takes quite a few shots to kill the enemy. That stuff does get a little old, but it isn't enough to make someone hate it.
The graphics are not the best in the world, they kind of remind one of a early Ps2 game. When i first saw the game and i noticed on the back of it that it was cell shaded, I thought "Oh no, they have ruined it", but i decided to buy it anyway beacuse there isn't a whole lot of FPS's for the gamecube. Man was i wrong about the cell shading. The added visual of it really makes the game stand out from other first person shooters. After a hour or two of playing the game, you forget all about the cell shading, and it looks somewhat normal to you. With all that said, here are the PRO's/CON'S for "XIII" on the Nintendo Gamecube.
PRO'S-
1. Great gameplay, probably one of the best first person shooters for gamecube.
2. Good story.
3. Cell shading, It actaully makes this game look better.
4. Good controls
5. A different shooting game experience.
CON'S-
1. Some of the missions can be a little tedious.
2. Weapon changes are a little slow.
3. It takes too many shots to kill enemey
4. you die alot, and have to retry the whole mission all the time.
overall, XIII is without a doubt one of if not the best first person shooters for Nintendo Gamecube. It offers a competely different gaming experience than other competitors in it's genre, with a relatively good price. I was a bit skeptical when i seen this bargain bin beauty, but i decided to try anyway, and boy was i glad i did. This game really did fly under the radar, and i don't know why beacause this is some of the best gaming gamecube has to offer. If you own a gamecube, or your like me and like huntin' for the "good" bargain bin games for a somewhat older system, then look no further. Pick this game up if you find it because it's a rare treat for gamecube owners.
UPDATE!!!!!!!!
I cant believe it's been 10 years since I wrote that lol..but I still have the game and game cube and I play it occasionally. sad to see how much the old games have gone up tho. a decade ago this game was a bargain, I think I paid less than 20 bucks for it. still highly recommend it for gamers that still like to play old school systems alot. however at this new price around $70 you might wanna try and find a good used copy first lol

This game doesnt mess around it will chew you up and spit you out, its one tough cookie and takes no prisoners. this may be because the controls are just alittle funny but the feel of the game is great every thing has a comic book style to it as well as the complex weapon system (for the gamecube (I mean you have attachments and crossbows)) and the gameplay reminds me of the N64 007 goldeneye game, which, for me, is high praise. Im sure once I get accustomed to the controls this will quickly become one of my personal classics. Ubisoft is great I love most of their more recent games as well and as of playing one of their older games I can say I am now a fan of the company. Good work, thank you for all the great releases over the years.

XIII could have been a solid four star game at best, but it falls flat in a few areas. Let me run over the game real fast.
PROS:
+ Entertaining and stylish cinematics/cut scenes.
+ The ability to hit people with objects such as chairs or bottles is very fun.
+ Interesting story, but can be very confusing.
CONS:
- The single player game lags a little too much, and four-person multiplayer is nearly impossible to play.
- The levels do not feel very satisfying to complete.
- Shooting with some weapons such as the standard pistol is awkward.
I haven't beat the game yet but I'm pretty sure I'm more than half-way through. I may update the review based on the rest of the game.

I missed this game so bad I bought it again. It is a normal story, nothing too exciting, but the style and control are top notch. Love the cel shade!
