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.

Siberia alone is bigger than any of the level in Perfect Dark and Goldeneye. INfact I'd say all the levels I've played...which is about 3, would be bigger than any of the levels in Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.

They're apparently more geared to 18 player games online, which can only be a good thing.

I heard that alot of people are creating old Goldeneye maps and uploading them online which will be wicked. I've heard some people saying they've seen Halo 2 maps too.

I thought they'd 'Live up' the challenges like with PGR2 etc.

Stuff the bots as long as the aiming's good online'll be sublime.

How big are the levels? Just compare 'em to TS2/Goldeneye levels so I get the general idea if you would be so kind. :)

Can't comment on the bots but the aiming is a lot better and the challenges can be played on live and uploaded to live.
