BlackSite: Area 51 for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Blacksite is a decent first person shooter with plenty of bugs, but none too great to interfere with gameplay excessively. Going straight from COD 4 to this game is a big step down though, the aiming and unrealism in the firefights really requires some dumbing down. Your opponents can be really difficult to kill at times, I cannot imagine shooting somebody 10 times in the torso and have them be completely unscathed. The graphics also feel like a step down, but not by much although at times it can be a bit choppy and might even drop the frame rate a bit. There is also a morale system that controls your teammates aim and skills in relation to how good you are (how many guys you kill, headshots, etc.)All in all the game is ok, they should've spent more time on it but it is definitely worth renting and beating.

+ Morale system is interesting and helps a bit
+ The aliens in iraq story line is interesting
+ Overall good fighting with minor flaws

- The aiming pisses me off and is unrealistic (i can look around and aim at the same time with an AR-15)
- The enemies reaction to getting shot is unrealistic and they tend to need to be shot more than what should be required
- Framerate drops at times which can make it seem a bit laggy
- The graphics aren't that great

I am going to start my review off nice the game is fun do not get me wrong i am a big fan of the previous area 51 installments. however 2 big things i noticed was the lack of challenge and lack of weapons.. the game is only 6 missions long and the first 2 is just lame set up for the story. also when i was driving the jeep through the ruts it kept glitching out (jeep started flying then i got out and died b/c i fell)
anyway it is ok to go ahead and get your achievement points.
