Hello all, OK so this ones a bit out of left field but here goes.

I am a huge fan of the matrix movies(yes even the last two), but for some reason I have never played the games. I now have the opportunity to get a copy of Enter The Matrix and cant decide if I should buy it or not.

It got lukewarm reviews of about 65% -72%, but then so does all the CSI games and I really enjoy those.

Like I said I am a fan of the Matrix series, so I might get more out of it than someone who isn't. And with no really good games coming until October should I get it to fill the gap, or save my money?

Let me know your thoughts as I am undecided.

Neo chose the red pill for a reason - he knew "Enter..." would be horrible.

Max Payne beat "Enter..." to the chase, and did it better, too.

Buy a rock, sit in the corner and hit yourself in the head repeatedly. That'd be more fun.
Both will cause about the same amount of brain damage, too.

And? Stalker sucked majorly.

I would say pick it up. It's not a terrible game. But that said it's not particuarly good either. It has it's moments though.

STALKER is a fantastic game. It did have a lot of bugs and glitches and a lot of the community patches have made the game playable. I would pick STALKER over Enter the Matrix .

I was a bit younger when I played Enter the Matrix, but I remember it as being fairly fun. Certainly, the game is overly repetitive, and the combat is no where near perfect, but it succeeds in capturing the feel of the movies and providing a look at what happened "off-camera".

Stalker is a mediocre game. It had a lot of bugs and glitches, but that was the least of its problems.
Everyone has a different opinion, and so far I've seen an equal number of people who are like me and hate it as people who love the game and praise it like it was the second coming of Jesus.

He might or might not like it but that game is pure crap, it's not pretty good, it's not decent, it's crap. I love Matix, every movie, I even like 3 more than 1, that probably was the best (1). When it was released I was like ZOMFG and I was lucky to recieve it as a gift, but after I installed it, I barely finished the first level and I kept "punishing" myself till the 3rd level where I couldn't take it anymore, it was the worst game of that year and to think that it was a game that I was looking forward to.

The game itself was not that bad and I really enjoyed it. However, I could not finish it because of the insane amount of bugs. I could not get past a certain point because the game would crash every time and nothing I tried fixed the problem. If it wasn't for that bug I would recommend the game since you are a hardcore Matrix fan, but I really would say to stay away from it if you want to avoid incredible frustration.

If you want to play a game as Will Smith's wife and you're a fan of will smith this is a huge recommendation. If you like the matrix, you may find some enjoyment

You must be asking because it's dirt cheap at Gogamer right now. It's only $3.00 USD...I was asking myself the same question the other night. I did a search for reviews on the game, and it looks like a polished turd of a game by the reviews I've read. Like others have said, I'd save my money.

I also thought it sucked. And so does the the new one (I found the E3 demo online) and it's exactly the same thing. But I guess alot of people will like it.

LOL, but this is coming from a guy who acually enjoyed playing the Matrix game. Granted I never played the PC version just the PS2 one. I thought it was fun (slowing down time, runing on wall, and some awesome combos) Best movie game IMO!!

I thought it was alright. 7.0-ish. Worth ten bucks, in my opinion, so I say go for it.

I personally hate the game and love the movies, so if my opinion (and the opinions of the couple dozen other guys who posted) is anything to go by, then don't even consider the purchase.

It was the worst game I ever tried to play. If I remember right, the controls were so messed up you could barely get the characters to go where you want them to go.
