Where to begin. This is probably one of the worst FPS I've ever played. Both the single player and multiplayer are very flawed with the how the game mechanics work. I felt like the makers tried too hard to add all this cool stuff and it just failed miserably.
The single player is bad but not horrible. You use a cloaking device to sneak around out in the open but it only has so much energy so you have to go hide somewhere are let it recharge every now and then. There is also an armor ability that makes you more durable that also uses energy but is barely used because you hardly actually shoot in this shooter. If you do want to shoot you will immeadiatly get swarmed by a bunch of enemies and they will annihilate you unless you run away and use your cloaking device. Its okay to use your cloaking in front of the enemy though, they don't mind. In fact if you cloak right in front of them they'll sit there with a dumb look on their face until you shoot them. Your best bet is to avoid fighting and use your little cloaking power and just tip toe your way through broad daylight. I understand the appeal of stealth games but this one isn't even amusing because you don't use your enviroment like you do in Metal Gear or Splinter Cell.
The multiplayer is absolutely horrible. It is a rip off of Call of Duty most notably with the kill streaks. People are constantly cheating because there are no booting or banning implementations. The worst part is people don't run around, they jump around. No, I'm not giving a bad House of Pain joke it's literally true. People jump around to avoid getting shot and it works so games usually revolve around people jumping with each other trying to shoot at one another. If that sounds like fun to you then this is the game for you. But I like to have some depth of reality even if it is onlly a little bit, which this game doesn't. I feel like the measly $10 I spent on this title was not worth it. It's that terrible...
