I, a quite accomplished and regular gamer, find that generally todays games are always lacking that little 'something'. The little ingredient that made Zelda - Occarina of Time the epic adventure it was, and the same magical addition that made Metal Gear Solid one of the best titles ever.

It has no name, and no games creator can guaruntee it will be in a game, but once in a while, when a games developer stumbles across it, everyone loves it.

Dont worry, I am infact going somewhere with this post. After receiving Die Hard Vendetta (From SR, naturally) I thought, hmm medioka game, terrible controls, and returned to my PC. But, determined, I fiddled around with the controlls (Controll setting B is much easier by the way) and continued with the game.

Normally, I feel the spark as soon as I play a game, I say "This game is great" and get into in immediately. With D H V however, I slowly got more and more involved with it. The gameplay is excellent, the storyline progresses steadily and it is very involving. Bullet time mode is a wonderful addition, hero time is something I havent yet got into yet, but it is a great concept nevertheless.

If anyone out there has doubt about the game, dont, it is a masterpiece. If you stuble across £38 buy it, and buy it fast.

I like this game allot, not just because it's quite fun, but as I mentioned in my reveiw, it actually feels like Die Hard the game. I'm a huge fan of the films you see, so I find it nice to finally play a game which represents the films well.

Glad to see you feel the same way about this too, and that you've taken the time to give it a real chance after worrying first-impressions too. :)

I just love the whole addittion of stealth to this FPS title, along with the superb storyline, plot, and brilliant guns.
Don't you feel great the first time you sneak-up behind a guy and grab him round the neck?

And I find the controller setting C to be the best of the lot.
