"Splitters Future Perfect"

Mine came earlier, just been playing it until it crashed my Cube (which hasn't happend in about a year, but never mind).

Very weird to play this after Resi 4, I don't think you couldn't get two shooting games any more different from each other.

So far:

+ Lots of humour and little touches which made me smile
+ More Captain Ash
+ Looks and sounds alot better with alot more speech
+ The stats & character gallery are back, with some old favourites
+ Intimidatingly huge amount of Challenges etc. to do
+ Doesn't look like EA have messed around with FRD's game.

- Couple of framerate slowdowns
- Pathetically weak and short opening level (the demo level)
- I seem to be crap at Arcade league.

The opening Story Level is a let down, specially since the beginning of TSP2 threw you into the sublime Siberia level. But the next level is far better. And has Captain Ash who is hilarious :)

Oh, and in the extras section you can see the credits, which has Cortez going all Saturday Night Fever on a mirror-balled dance floor. The sign on the wall says "The Big Tipper". :D

His text talk isn't so bad but then he calls Ghost Recon 2 "Ghost Reacon 2" then I had enough.

So it's well worth getting then? Over Chaos Theory? I wonder.

That Haunted house level and the labs level make me pee stick white love. I really don't know what magazines are talking about when they say it's practically the same game as TS2, the story mode is so far evolved it's almost a totally new game...not quite though.

Oh and the flare gun is awesome!

I luv dis game!!11!1

I think the opening level is good, it's short and simple and I think that's what you need to start you off. I found Siberia a bit overwhelming as the first level on TS2.

I was going to say........

I think so, they work pretty much every day.

I'm starting to get the impression that getting a bronze on a challenge unlocks everything and getting a silver or gold only adds towards the game completion percentage. Saying that, some characters are unlocked by getting all golds in amateur, etc but there are no characters unlocked for getting a gold or silver in one specific challenge.
