Played it last night - enjoyed it and thought yep this is a good game, buy it when it comes out etc etc but just one thing.

Anybody else noticed the similarities to Goldeneye ?

Crikeys - the location is the same, the weapons, the textures, the sounds and the gameplay.

I know that people have long said that Goldeneye is one of the best all time games and I agree and I am sure once we get into the full game the locations etc will change - and hey - it's even got monkeys in it !

I suppose what I am saying is that I was expecting TS2 to be moving forward but based on the demo it is a slightly better looking version of a game which is what - 4/5 years old.

Indeed it is - more developers should take note.

It gives you plenty of time to get into it and learn the controls etc - and it is also darn good.

Yep - it was with this months official mag.

A complete level as a demo - not a silly time limited thing.

Everyone praises Rare for Goldeneye but it was actually Free Radical who had more input in it, hence why Timeplitters and Timeplitters 2 are very similar to Goldeneye.

The demo is pretty good. Poor me gets motion sickness so I felt sick when I got to the power switch. :(

No blood neither. Game tis fun though :D

And so speaketh the all knowing oracle !



Talking of demo's Mr Snuggles sir - Do SR ever get supplies of demo discs and if so what do you do with them ?

i.e. how can us poor unfortunates get hold of demo's of the likes of PES2 ??

The first level of TimeSplitters 2 is a homage to the first level of GoldenEye, so it's intentional.
