Best value for money game I ever bought. I've had more fun and derived more enjoyment than I thought possible from something costing only a fiver. If you don't have this you really should pick it up. You can get it on the cheap from Amazon and eBay and it's a fair bet it'll bein in a few bargain bins too.
Quite frankly if you don't own a gamecube + one other console then you're missing out.
Mmmmmm Far Cry instincts for starters.

True, and it's not the way to get the most enjoyment from the game but it's fun every once in a while :-)
I got it

I love possessing a guard... killing as many people as possible... shoot one to an inch of his life then un-possess. And watch as the guard who was nearly dead shoots the guard you possessed.
Then clean up with a choke hold.
Simple.

You're probably right: playing through again without the powers would probably be a bit of a drag, but the first time you play it that's irrelevant.
Which is why I really wanted to replay them with all the powers and some weapons ... it would have been great.

Was a real sleeper wasn't it? I suppose it benefited from people not really expecting much from it, allowed them to be very pleasantly surprised.
> Hated it at first though.
Really? I was enthralled from the start.
