"Second Sight, then ..."

I think any game where the review is purposely vague so as to not ruin the experience for the player is well worth a look.
Rather excited, like I haven't been for a while.

But I only ordered it yesterday, so it may or may not come on Friday.

Who's buying?
Lots of you, I hope. It's one of the games like BG&E and PoP that could just not sell for no apparent reason.

Got it today - at first I wasn't too impressed and just ended up legging to to the exit. But then I learnt how to use powers + guns + cover properly, and everything rocked most enjoyably.

Up to the 7th level already, and I think that's about half way through, so I should probably slow up a bit. Too much fun though - especially when your floaty power gets upgraded so you can pick people up, I spent about half an hour hiding in the air ducts flinging guards around.

The controls are pretty good, I thought - no problems going behind cover. And though the camera can be a bit annoying, you get 3 viewpoints to choose from anytime you want, so no real complaints.

Bloody gorgeous, as well.

I'm always right.

Got up to the bit where you have to guide Jayne out, except I got stuck by a door and shot her in the head. Her scream really made me feel guilty :|

I'm in a serious money trouble at the moment I wish I could get the game.

Played a little more, the flashback where you're told *someone* is going to be killed.. and then they aren't.. I guess I have that still to come. Except now I'm back in the present in the Sewers, which is I think the level NGC hated.
Oh, and for anyone else who's got this far, didn't it seem strange that when

*SPOILERS*


Jon got his powers from the projected kid in the flashback, and presumbably that was the first time he'd ever had them, he didn't wonder what they were or why he had them, he just babbled to the colnel about their discovery of US technology among the soldiers they'd just killed? Oh well.

Got all the powers now - possession is great fun - and just finished the sewer level (it's not that bad)

I hope you can unlock some cheats if you finish the game like infinite powers - and I'd love it if you were able to replay the earlier levels with all the powers. We'll see, I suppose.

Nope you dont sadly..

Poops. That's just mean.
Ah well, I'll still probably play it through again.

Yea its a good laugh to play it again but I knew what I had to do this time, so the element of suprise is gone but I have to say that they a good job on it especially the storyline a few other things let it down slightly so I would give it about 85% at best its good but could be better.
Now all we need is them to make another single player based game again :D
Just imagine what they've learnt from making this game that they could implement in their next project (maybe they'll have a proper storyline in the next Timesplitters!)

The story sounds pretty decent in the next TS, actually.
And the blokey has a so-called 'gravity watch' - so the floaty power will make a wonderfully over-exaggerted return, I'm sure.
