DOES he shamble along dark corridors and have one arm longer than the other?

Jack Bauer wouldn’t know.

It was a solid but not a really great game. Seems like with a bit more time they have been able to do better with this one. Pity SCEE are a bunch of incompetent fools.

That was the Halo rip-off level, and probably the worst one in the whole game. It was a much better game when it wasn't trying to be Halo. As for the gun that can shoot through walls. Perfect Dark had a weapon that could do that, called the Farsight. It was ridiculously powerful almost to the point of breaking the game. Fun, though. :) I'm not even sure if it was the first game to use such a weapon though (actually, I'd be surprised if it was). It was an open, outside bit with vehicles.

Totally changed the dynamic of using cover. R:FOM was the first place I'd seen a weapon like that - not claiming R:FOM was the first game to come up with the idea though. Ecu, the end of the game was a bit of a letdown. The climax wasn't a big snarling alien thingy, just a prolonged "survive the horde" type scenario. Having said that R2 seems to have a few 'big' alien bits in it. Anyway, I heard Ted Price say "Trying a beta is like making love to a beautiful woman".
