I think you will have a pleasent surprise. The multiplayer mode is outstanding - there are like 15 different modes you can go in, a range of bots and levels, and it is incredibly addictive.
Some people, as you said, criticise the single player mode, but I see nothing wrong with it. There are loads of different objectives, huge levels, and although hard mode is a little too hard, it is still a lot of fun.
AS for the controls, they need a little getting used to admittingly, but once you get the hang of them, they are actually quite simple and easy.

I've only had a quick go on it, and although the controls take some getting used to, I think that they work. From what I've heard from reviews, it is the single player mode which has come in for criticism (although it is better than TS1, reviewers say it still needs improving). Anyway, I'll find out for myself if it is decent enough.

I've only had a quick go on it, and although the controls take some getting used to, I think that they work. From what I've heard from reviews, it is the single player mode which has come in for criticism (although it is better than TS1, reviewers say it still needs improving). Anyway, I'll find out for myself if it is decent enough.
What is the time splliter 2 game like because i have been reading a lot of reviews on it. some reviewers say it is an amazing game on both single player and multiplayer while other reviewers say the game gets really boring and repetitve and the multiplayer is so so ( i also heard that the controls are really bad)
I finally got down to my local safeway store today and got a copy for £19.99 - bargain. I'd suggest to anyone who hasn't got TS2 yet to go and get it from Safeway quickly - I got the last copy in stock at the store.
Has any one else got it from Safeway yet? I'm hoping that this isn't limited to some stores.

As you can't tell the difference between safeo and safeway, eh? :P

Onimusha 2: £19.99 in Tesco a few weeks back. It still is online, in fact. Also, I went to Gamestation to get £10 off Red Faction 2 - but as it was only £29.99 without the voucher, I only paid £19.99 for it! That's the same price as the original Red Faction.

I got it - Anacomda is amazing and strangely quite addictive. I spent like an hour just on that one mini game

Anyone know how to unlock the rest of the multiplayer maps?
