BLACK is a short but eventful experience!

User Rating: 8.5 | Black PS2
Black is a constant barrage of in-your-face shooting, destruction and absolute fun. This game never has a dull moment and is one of the best looking shooters I've ever seen on a current generation console to date. The only factors that let it down are its very short campaign with only around 8 hours game play over 8 missions, no multiplayer option at all not even over Xbox live.

That aside, the meat of the game of course lies in the shooting which Black delivers exceptionally well with impressive destructibility of the environment. All of this is achieved with very little noticeable slowdown. The variety of weapons is also great, with numerous forms of SMG, assault rifle and handgun, plus sniper rifles, grenades and the all-important RPG with each weapon sounding fantastically good.

So then Black is something that should not be missed, its shortcomings are overwhelmed entirely by pure fun from beginning to end, with enough multiple routes on the levels to warrant at least a couple of plays through on diffrent difficulty levels. I hope there is sequel and if there is I can not wait!
