The Goldeneye of Xbox |  Xbox_Xtreme2002 from StationPlay says (9/Nov/2002): | This game is a good solid First Person Shooter (FPS), made by the people who made Goldeneye for Nintendo 64, the people of FreeRadical came out from Rare Ware. If you were a big fan of Goldeneye, the second you play this game you would see the remarkable resemblence. The graphics in this game are good, it runs smooth, shading is ok but not the greatest since it is ported from PS2 it does not take the XBOX into full potential. The characters actually look kinda cartoony yet realistic in a way. The AI is good, the enemies are very responsive and are quite challenging at times. The sound is just like goldeneye, simliar music, sounds great, the sound effects are very nicely done. The only thing i feel that is flawed in this game, is the Aiming, the way this game aim's is horrible. the crosshair jumps around and requires a very steady finger to hold it right but most of the time in a tense situation the you tend to get shot a few times before actually just shooting off franctically to survive with no idea of what you are hitting. but besides that the story/plot is interesting and fun. multiplayer is pretty good, the fun factor of this game is just as high as Goldeneye and if you are a Goldeneye fan i suggest buying this.
| TS2 is an excellent game but.... | | jp from Cincinnati,OH says (19/Mar/2005): | This game is pretty damn sweet but I have one big gripe. The F#$< remove me > at ing screen follows your crosshair in aim mode if you go beyond a small dead zone in the middle.. I can't stand that. Listen Free Radical, when I press aim that means I want the freedom to aim at anything in my fov, precisely, without the screen following. Didn't any of the testers find this annoying as hell? And now I must type enough to bring me to one hundred words, as if I wasn't annoyed already. BTW I enjoyed killzones single player action and thougth that its aim feature even beat TS2, but for sure 007 nightfire has one of the better aim features as far as control, the multiplayer on that game is actually pretty good as far as levels and weapons and the bots are pretty versatile, but TS2 has much better multiplayer its just the small envelope you are given to aim within is too small to overlook.
| Time Splitters 2 is AWESOME! | | Lavaskie Clark from Jackson(MS)United States says (30/Mar/2004): | when i played timesplitters 2, i kew it wouldn't be like any other games so i popped it into my gamecube and got started. It amazed me at how dazzling the graphics were and the co-op mode was totally awesome. The AI was very intelligent and i was kept in my seat. I played it my whole weekend. This game was like Halo meets GoldenEye meets Jedi Outcast. The best thingf about the game is arcade mode. the online playt is awesome! It had an excellente amount of character, a good soundtrack and an awesome arsenal of weapons to annialate your enemies with. Oerall I give this game a full 10. It's got the looks, the moves, the sound and the controls.
| This is a good game | | e-monk from Tahachipi,U.S.A. says (20/Jan/2004): | This was a good game most of u would agree with me . What i really like is the co-op in pretty much everthing so i can play with my friends. the story mode was good to. the only bad part was it needed more blood other from that it was a good game. also the variety of characters was good. also mapmaker was great it was one of the high points for me everthing about this game is great. many of my friends own this game and all love as much as i do graphics were great as sound was as life span
| Aren't cannadians stupid? heh J/k Very Excellent game | | A gamer says (22/Dec/2003): | When I first aquired Timesplitters 2, I was at my friends house with another of my friends. So it was us three, all playing assault, at the training ground. I was very confused, picked up an SPB90 and ran out of our base, weapons blazing. Needless to say, I was killed very shortly, but not after taking a few Meezor Mox's with me. After that first charge, I was hooked.
The graphics are AMAZING. Just the fact that the game can hold so much and still have smooth animation, ambient sounds, music, and character noises AND good graphics is outstanding. Kudos to Rare...or whatever they call themselves now. It harbors great resemblence to Goldeneye, and is a fantastic multiplayer experience. I have found that if you rotate between games, and not go insomnia on a single game, that your entire inventory becomes more enjoyable. In other words, don't complain about the game getting boring after you suck it up on say the third level on hard for about 5 hours. If you get stuck, play another game for a while, maybe on of the same theme like Jedi Outcast or another space age one.
Now about the music. It has outstanding music, very good taste if you ask me, and why would you complain about not having sound when you purposefully turn it off. It makes me sick to see people find very fine games that have been put together by hardworking people, and rip it on a basis that they found something wrong with the technicalities. This does not mean that I'm going to let them slip by with making a very dismal aiming system. It's very good that you can aim while walking, but if it's going to distort your accuracy so badly, there's no point in even having aim, save for sniping. Blood, as has been already pointed out, is not there just for profit. Games like Hunter, The Reconing have a disgustingly lower rate of sale than mirror games like Gauntlet Legends. Hunter is rated M therefore warding off parents and other game buyers. Some people don't like to have blood in their games, and that's fine. I do think that there should at least be an option or something for blood and body decay that comes defauted "off" and you are able to switch at your leisure. But hey, you can think of the game as a really big, bad, awesome, paintball fight! You can even get a code for that...so its all good. Overall a very very very good game. I'm only giving it an eight because of the aiming...in my opinion, it makes the game a lot less enjoyable since I'm always a natural sniper, and when you try to snipe s

| this game kicks halo's ass | | john from Florida, USA says (2/Dec/2003): | this game is so awesome, it's actually a challenge. i found sibria,the 1st lv, on hard mode to be very hard[no i dont suck at video games, they are my life] it has great graphics and awesome levels. it makes halo look like a load of crap. there are some problems with it though, like the fact that there isn't
any blood when you shoot people, or that the dead bodies dissapear. but despite some flaws, i give this game a 12 out of 10[it surpasses a meer 10] also this games story co-op is awesome, it is so fun that you never want to stop.
| Realy COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REALY COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | | No name says (28/Nov/2003): | This game is realy awsome. When my brothers and I play, It turns into some whicked awsome war.It is realy cool. yes, we all know it would be better if you could jump and have vehicels. But hey,The characters are realy awsome. Monkey looks realy cool when he is loaded with firearms. PLAY THIS GAME!!!
| Brilliant Game | | Chris from Derbyshire, England says (25/Nov/2003): | I have noticed that a few of you don't seem to like the "animated/ cartoon," look of this game. I think it actually adds to the graphics and smooth running of each individual character. It certainly is the best game i have seen that seems to have SOME Artificial Inteligence, or "AI" for the vegetarian scientists on bycicles, out there.
I have come up with the idea of actually confronting the developers of Goldeneye 007, for Nintendo 64 and asking them if they would ever consider bringing a buffed up version of the game onto the XBox.
I believe that they would profit emensley from this and so would many fans of the game. The developers originaly made a "Beta" version of the game, but had to get rid of it due to lack of efficient numeric "geometry" of the Nintendo 64. Also the game would have been too big, but i think if it was braught out on the XBox, they would be able to make better on this already cool game. Maybe even Turok could be braught out on it (i think it already has but not good ones like Turok 2)
What do you guys think?
Any way, back to this game. I agree with the dude/ dudess that mentioned not being able to see your reflection in a poodle. I actually tried that the other day, strangely enough and i could not see myself in it (not me but the character.) I also think that the aiming is far too hard to do on such a fast game.
One thing that i do find intriguing is watching the enemies on a level (from afar) and watching their actions. I watched the young lady with the pony tail on the first level. She looked at her watch, looked at her gun, checked her shoes. I find this to be a brilliant thing in this game. Nothing is the same, each time you play it, the characters actions, to a certain point, are different and unique. Again, in Goldeneye 007 the characters do the same things which i believe on XBox could be improved....
Any way, very good game on the whole. If anybody wants to talk about my ideas on this game, or anything else, including the Goldeneye idea, then e-mail me at Lion_Heart_74< remove me > at Hotmail.com
Thanks,
Chris
P.s That "bald headed guy" (the main guy) sounds very familiar, like a cartoon charactyer i have heard before but i can't quite put my finger on it :o/
| I like Time Splitters 2 but I know Halo is MUCH better | | ])!$TURB3D from Unknown says (22/Nov/2003): | I think TS2 is an outstanding game but I really think Halo is MUCH better the reason I think that is because it has much better graphics and TS2 has those wimp like cartoony graphics and one of the things i like most about Halo is that you can drive vehicles and ships an crap but i know the TS2 has no terrain big enough to let you drive anything but they could have at least made the terrain BIGGER. Another thing is that you cant be the same character throughout the game you always gotta be some clown or sumthin ya cant be the balled guy (main character) no offense on you balled people sorry, but still i think this is an awsome game the guns,the missions,the inntensity, and the multiplayer. Of course the multiplayer on Halo is sucky crap (no bots,dont pick weaponry etc.) BUT the TS2 multiplayer well that is a different story. Oh and another thing NO CHEATS why why why no cheats that is one of my BIGGEST probs. Well ill just end this with: ITS AN AWSOME GAME!
| For some reason I like to see myself on a game . (Read this if you have played TS2) | | Josh from Houston, TX , USA says (22/Nov/2003): | In Time Splitters 2 I have noticed that there is not a hand holding the end of a machine gun and there is no reload sequence such as taking the clip out of the soviet and putting it back in, now I have a big problem with that. Now I like games where you can look at puddles of water and see yourself in the reflection, (on FPS) and reload and see your arm moving around while you toss the clip behind you or drop it on the ground (like on Halo) now I dont think Time Splitters and Time Splitters 2 are bad games just because of that but at least put an arm holding the end of a machine gun or shotgun not just the handle. I have also noticed that on the Multiplayer you could see the AI or your buddy's (player 2) character holding the machine gun or shotgun with 2 hands but when you are playing Story or Arcade by yourself you can notice that your character isn't even holding the gun. I tell you, that is one of the worst flaws I personally could find, it may not be a problem to the rest of you but it sure does make the game a whole lot more realistic than just lowering your gun and making a clicking noise.
| Pretty Damn good!!!! | | Warren Malcom from Albany, NY, USA says (5/Nov/2003): | In my opinion, Time Splitters 2 is one of the best action games ever made, but, like most games, it does have a couple flaws. For one, i don't get the "no blood" thing. I don't get how you can spray other people with two shotguns at a time, but there's no blood. I wanna see blood gushing out the moment i hit em with a shell. Second off, why the hell do the players move so goddamn fast? When i first started playing, i did not expect to be running 90 mph. I guess i'm used to playing halo all the time...... overall, i think it's a pretty good game. It's a much more entertaining game than Halo when you're alone......Oh yeah, and if there's anyone out there who thinks they can touch me in either game, hit me up!!!!
| Finished Halo? Try this one for a real challenge! | | Andy C. from Gastonia, NC USA says (7/Oct/2003): | I was eager for a really good FPS to sink my teeth into when I first purchased TS2. Days after beating HALO I was itching to blast through another epic FPS in the same vein as the XBOX classic. When I got home and booted TS2 up I was honestly suprised by what met me. Gone were the checkpoints every two feet and enemies that could easily be taken out with a few blasts, replacing them were one checkpoint per level and enemy's that were tough as they were ugly. I loved the storyline, time traveling guarantees that you won't feel like your playing the same level you did a few boards back in reverse or with minor changes *cough cough Halo cough cough*
Also this game has bosses, something most FPS go without.
The bosses range from a Helicopter to a giant demon and that's not even the half of it. The music fits each world perfectly.
From the first stage it's pretty obvious that this game is made by the same folks behind the N64 classic Goldeneye. The enemy AI is impressive as they hardly act the same way twice. I loved the arcade mode, if you though Unreal Tournament was fast then strap in because TS2 arcade is super fast and fluid whether you play solo or with three of your friends. Create a map is fun but wasted on people like me with short attention spans. I've played both GC and XBOX versions, and XBOX is the winner hands down. Not becasue I'm biased, it's just comes down to control (their are slight graphical differences as well) The aim is hard to master in TS2 anyway and the XBOX controller makes it alot easier. The weapons have a ton of variety and imagination from the 2X Tommy gun (my fav) to the Sci-Fi Handgun ( unload one of these in closed quaters and watch the bullets bounce of the walls like a 3rd grader after 100 pixie sticks) The unreal amount of unlockable characters and game modes only adds to this game's merit. If love a good challenging FPS and own an XBOX THIS IS A MUST HAVE!
| Awesome tight ass game but i need codes cheat!!!! | | water_hazard from Los Angeles, CA says (22/Sep/2003): | This game rocks besides the fact that there is no blood in it or there is music on the background. Anyway let me get to the point, I agree with the others needing codes for this game because the chalenge mode is a pain. Also, whats with the invisibility cheat enemies can still see u in the story mode i mean wtf so useless being a cheat. Thats my prob with this game anything else r superb, move over halo. ^_^
| its so-so | | A gamer from milledgeville, USA says (30/Aug/2003): | this game is ok....but still, i caint say its as good as halo. True, this game does allow more weps u can hold but that makes it non realistic. also, wuts with the no blood thing?? for a good shoot em up game u gotta have blood. and please, no music, i mean games need to be more realistic than that....during gameplay there should be no music. also make the map maker a little easier, add more things to put on it and put an area selection and another thing.....where are the cheats?? u gotta have some good cheat codes, and there are no checkpoints throughout the game....wut if ur at the end of a lvl and die????? i really hate it when that happens. you should put checkpoints in the game. and dont forget the guns are floating in the air, change that lay em on the ground all and all though its a good game....fun gameplay and 1 thing it does have on halo, u can play arcade with bots, in halo u caint. so game makers im gonna pat u on the back and kick dust on ur shoes at the same time. good job, but at the same time...u got a lot more work to do, such as: add gore and blood, put in checkpoints, limit the number of guns to like 3 but also let ppl choose if they want to switch guns, turn off the music during gameplay, of course add some cheat codes like, invincibility and infinite ammo and invisibility, make the map maker easier, and last but not least let the guns lay on the ground.
| Only thing wrong with this game is no blood :( | | poop from poo says (24/Aug/2003): | But the people behind ts2 are no dumbasses. You see they have no blood for TS2 because they can get a lower ESRB ratting and with a lower ESRB rating u can sell more coppies to the youngins... and nowadays all of the youngins are fat little loosers so they will play games all day. So hats off the EDIOS and all of the others behind this game cuz they are not fat they are go getters willing to make money and they did with this game
| Dont even compare this to halo | | kevin F. from hicville Ny. says (15/Aug/2003): | Ok ill admit that the multiplayer in halo isnt as good as ts2,but hey halo is like the building blocks for games- ts2, brute force, and i could go on. Ts2 is a great game but....
#1. I cant even figure out how to jump
#2. If you beat the game in co-op then it only lets you play the levels that you beat before you played with your friend.
#3. There are no real codes. only ones that you unlock from beating levels in the game.- i spent 3 hours looking for an invincibility code to beat ripe cracker rush- honarary leage arcade.
Other than those its a pretty fun game, but who the hell would say halo blows because you little gamecube losers have probably never played halo before.
| MULTIPLAYER IS GREAT! | | Shannon from Virginia, USA says (14/Aug/2003): | Too many people hate on this game... sure the 1st person kind of sucks... but what other game can you and a bunch of friends run around as monkeys and throw bricks or tnt at each other... and although i get aggrevated w/ trying to unlock all the extremely COOL characters... it is great when you've got some one to play it with :) i give it a thumbs up... its no HALO buts its sure as hell a lot of fun
| THIS GAME IS PIMPED OUT | | Pimpsta from Fort Worth, TX USA(rules) says (12/Aug/2003): | I know that this game has been our forever now and all the hype has already gone down but i just got to tryin it. THIS GAME RULES. True its no halo, but the replay value, story mode, and multiplayers modes are all incredibley fun. This game surpasses Goldeneye by a lonshot. Th only thing that was unnaccepteble were those horrid PS2 graphics. They Coiuld atleast urpgrade the game to an XBOX calibur. Anyway, u guys diissin this bad boy need to shut up and go away(yes there are some flaws)
