One of the Top FPS Options for PS2 Owners

User Rating: 8.4 | Darkwatch PS2
By wmg1299 | Review Date:
Darkwatch is a solid first person shooter and may be the best game of this type available on the PS2.
While I admit that the premise of a vampire cowboy hunting the undead is highly unbeleivable, who cares. In my opinion its perfectly acceptable for a video game to have nothing to do with reality. Despite it's implausibility, the story flows well and is good enough to keep players interested.
Controls are about what you expect for any standard FPS. Jericho can only carry two weapons at once, which adds a slight element of strategy. The game is not easy, and there are many stages when the action is frantic.
The game offers a good vs evil system of decision making which leads to one of two different endings. It's a little on the short side, but does offer replay value for the additional ending.
This game is definately worth a rental for any FPS fan, and would make a good purchase for a lot of gamers.
