die hard vendetta -
firslty let me say how impressed i was with this game, id read so many bad reviews on it and i was beginning to see why whe i decided to play the training level, its poor and boring and not really necessary, so i suggest skipping it, but the actual game its self is good, having only played the first 5 or so levels here are my main pros and cons:
Pros -
1)the levels are well designed and interesting, they take place in realistic environments, and have a good story line,
2) the voice acting, whilst some of the character models are a bit average, the voice of john mclane is excellent, not sure if it is bruce willis but i doubt it, anyway it sounds exactly like him,
3) the one liners are hillarious, just like all great ones from the films,
4) the language, its about time there was a game which reflected real life a bit more, theres great use of colourful language such as F*** this, and motherf**ker that, it make the story more realistic,
6) the weapons are good and the ammo is generous yet not stupidly over the top
cons -
1) the graphics arent up to the high standards of timesplitters but then not many fps are,
2) the language - might not be suitable for younger gamers,
3) the training level
4) some fo the levels take a bit or thinking as you have to find ways around obstacles such as locked gates, and this can involve jumping onto roofs and looking for ways to jump over obstacles, not what everyone wants in a fps.
conclusion
Dont expect this to beat ts2 it wont, but its a lot better than either 007 agent under fire and nightfire,
its a lot better than any review ive read on it, and its the 2nd best fps ive played on the cube,

but the backgrounds on ts2 are smooth and look realistic whilst the character models, ok they are cartoonish but they also have good actions and movement, whilst die hards backgrounds arent as smooth and are quite blocky, also the character models (such as al and most of the other cops you can talk to) look like EA style funny sort of real people heads on cartoonish bodies - like goldeneye and nightfire,
i agree ts2 graphics arent the best ever but they are better than die hard

The high standards of TSP2 Graphics?
I'm sorry but although nice, the graphics in TSP2 weren't that amazing. I'd have to say the later levels in Die Hard such as the Prison break and Tuna Factory makes TSP2 look almost bland.
