Graphics=8
AI(artificial intelligence)-2
creativity-7
story-5
gameplay-3
controls-2

wrap up- just like a normal shooter with some cleaver moves added in but it seems to sacrifice the AI.

The graphics in the game were great, which is what gave it the rating it has now, everything else was horrible. The single player story line was extremely unoriginal, almost the same exact as Half Life 2 and the episodes. The multiplayer barely had anyone playing and was not fun.

cool idea, but ultimately boring and repetitive

i would definitely say this game is worth a rent at the most, but to say its worth a full fledged 60 or even 50 dollars is beyond the case. at the core of this game is the time mechanic. the ability to slow stop and reverse time to better suit your combat needs and surroundings is initially a cool idea, but the main fact remains that this game gets to repetitive too quickly.

and beyond that, an even greater annoyance is the fact that for some reason all the enemies seem to be made of kevlar, for the fact that it takes mounds of ammunition to put down one guy, unless of course you use your entire time stop bar to pinpoint one enemy forehead perfectly. but then you are left in the middle of a room full of baddies with no more time energy, which equals...you guessed it your frustrating and ultimate death, along with any hope of this game being more fun that a nuisance.
