Was wandering around shops before I came home today and seen a demo of this running. Looked ok but I guess the element of running along walls could wear out after a while.

So who has got the game? Whats it like and is it a game worth owning?

Also if it is worth getting what console is it best on? PC, PS2 or gamecube (No fanboy comments please just honset views..)

Thanks if you have info.

Because it has better graphics than the PS2 version and PC controls aren't as good for these types of games.



Although I would advise spending your money on something decent, like 40 Kinder Surprise or something.

If you want that many Kinder Suprise, buy them in bulk. You can get a big box of them for about £20.

Balls.
I've got the PC version and it's good fun.
Controls aren't as good?
W,S,A,D (usual PC combo), shift for focus,space to jump.
You can't strafe easily with a pad.
And PC graphics owns console

I've got the X box version.

Within Five minutes I thought what a load of tosh, the Graphics aren't anything to shout about, bullet time has been done before, the frame rate can be jerky and the AI is crap.

But then I started pulling off some decent moves in 'focus'. And enjoyed it, there's no doubting the 'cool' element of the game is keeping me play it.

I've completed it on easy (both characters) and normal (niobe), and its not that long, about 7 hours for each character The driving and shooting parts are crap, but the bulk of the game is alright.

But its the Matrix, and it feels like the matrix, so I would recommend it.

If I could afford one I would get one, but I can't so I don't have one. Not really bothered about not having one either.

Maybe wont get this. Vietcong should be here soon and I still have exams to sit.

I'm enjoying it immensely so far. I'm a few hours into it and so far I've run up walls and kicked people's heads in, cartwheeled across an airport lounge avoiding bullets, stabbed people with a wooden stake, taken out an aeroplane's front wheel with a sniper rifle, stalked some Feds in a sewer, protected some Logo pilots with guns, sat out a car window and blown up police cars with a rifle and much more.

It's not the greatest game ever, but I'm enjoying it.
