Absoloutly su-fooking-poib!
I don't get where the magazines and web sites are coming from when they say very little has changed since TS2. So much has changed, all i can think is they didn't really play much of TS2 to notice.
For starters the days of twitchy unprecise aiming are over, using sniper rifles is a breeze and getting head shots from far away is no problem at all. Along with that they've now put in a decent reticule system that glows red when you're aiming at an enemy.
Single player while not ground breaking is a hell of a lot more fun than they made out. If you played and enjoyed Goldeneye or Perfect Dark then you should definetly get a kick out of this. It's certainly a lot better done than TS2 and there's no more moments where the computer seems to get off insanely impossible shots on you. The level design also seems to be a lot better, still quite linear but nowhere near as claustrophobic as some of the levels in TS2. Oh there's also a reasonable storyline instead o fthe jumbled mess that was the last game.
Also the bots in multiplayer no longer seem to know exactly where you are on the map all the time which is a massive bonus. So all is good and I highly recommend you get this game if you like light hearted arcade shooting games with a sense of humour.
There's tons of stuff I've missed out but I can't be assed to type anymore. I'm gonna stay offline tonight and play some single player and then take it online tomorrow night.

Yeah, I've seen that.
Took me a while to get the point in it, but still.

Hiya ,
I got sent a really cool link the other day, it was sent to me by me in the future???? Bit of a shock, so cool to send on to friends. Watch till the end then you can personalise it with your own name or send it to a friend with their details and freak them out.

Brilliant!

Wow, just did the disco challenge with the monkeys and got 30 mins.
(6 mins was platinum.)
I didn't upload it, but I would have been 8th or 9th in the world!

Obv. I meant just bots, no one playing.

Of course you play the maps with only bots, that's the main reason for having bots in a game.
Oh and whoever was having trouble with the Vietnam story classic challenge, just ignore the Splitters and run for the exit. There's no way in hell you'll ever get gold if you stand around shooting the Splitters at the end.

I'll have to wait till May then before I have any chance to play multiplayer.
Damn you BT, damn you all to hell

Without a player, I don't think so.
Due to being 'live-less' can you play on multiplayer maps just using bots? I'm in two minds about this game, thought TS2 was a bit short lived and easy
