This is an amazing game. I was amazed by the first hour and completely
sucked in from that point on. The start leaves you completely immeresed
in city 17 and what's going on. I love the way characters interact with
you thoughout the game and they look wonderful with great lip sync.
Some problems I had were that it was too short! I finished it in three
days not playing it too much each day. But what was there great. Also
the AI isnt as great as i had hope it would be. I actually thought the
HL 1 AI was better. This only lets it down slightly though. The number
of weapons wasn't huge but the game wasn't that long so you didnt
really get sick of them. I found that there was a distinct lack of
decent long range firepower as most waepons while rocking up close,
suck hard at range. The magnum was good at range but lacked ammo and
the crossbow was good but was a great weapon.
The best thing about this game is the physics and therefore the GRAVITY
GUN which is in my opinion the best gun ever in a FPS! It is so much
fun and cool.
Overall.
Graphics - Great, characters and enemies look great and move naturally
for the most part and the lip sync is great. The country landscape can
be a bit barren but are nice.
Gameplay - Varied and cool. Awesome vehicle sequences and shotouts as
well as puzzles to get through. The game is a bit easy (I played on
normal difficulty). The AI arent great. But good gameplay overall.
Sound - Was good with great voice acting. The music ranges from spooky to thumping firefight music which is all well done.
Value - Despite being a bit short the game was great and came with counterstrike.
