Time Splitters 2

$39.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
forget about the single player game--although it's quite good--i wanted to satisfy my craving for deathmatches--even though i really don't have any other gamers around to play against.
from www.amazon.com
single player mode i would give it a 3, but once you start plaing with your brother and cousins it's the best shoot em up game ever.
from www.amazon.com
this game will make you play it over and over again and the main thing in this game is that the multiplayer is absolutely great.
from www.amazon.com
even though the story mode (for 2 player to!) is very hard and is not the best i still give it an 5 *!
from www.amazon.com
although this game is fun on multiplayer and frustrating on single player, (easy sometimes but difficult at others, on normal and hard) it could be better.

they just say this because they cant play, they should not blame the game just because they cant play(snowball 1029 and keebah), maybe these two should play on easy so they can hit some of the notes.

although it can certainly be played a good bit faster, most people will probably rack up 30+ hours playing this game through the first time.

from www.amazon.com
this game is novel, completely addictive, totally amusing, and it didn't hurt too much to play for multiple hours, probably because no button pressing is required.

the game does feature a multiplayer mode, but in a whole, it could use some improvements.

my title says it all: this game is freakin weird, and anyone with a weird view of the world, who likes wonderland logic and sarcasm, is going to totally have fun playing this game for hours.

in a sense, it is about the rescue of yorda, but what awaits for you is only describable by playing the game.

the way ico leads yorda around is so beautiful, so powerful than it makes the player forget that he's playing a game and is instead living a dream.
from www.amazon.com
you just can't afford to lay out cash for a game that can be completed in under 7 hours. in summary, this game was very fun to play but left me begging for more log time actually playing it.
