    • “People have to learn to stop judging games on graphics and more on story and the game's ability to feel like the movies.”

  • gameplay
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players noting its similarities to classic titles like GoldenEye and Call of Duty, particularly in weapon mechanics and character upgrades.

    • “The gameplay also features some investigation where you use your cell phone to analyze and scan for clues and solve puzzles, which might get repetitive for some but adds an interesting layer to the experience.”
    • “The challenges are a joke, the stealth system is ridiculous, the bonus content is junk, and the mechanics and technology of the game are so far behind, it makes me wonder what year this was actually made.”
    • “The graphics are dreadful and the gameplay is monotonous.”
    • “The gameplay is like a very poor PS2 shooter.”
