Is it fun? Is it cool? Is it next-gen? Hellz yeah! Is it a Halo killer? NO.

This is a good old fashioned game of high jinks and thrills. Remember when you first played Goldeneye? Well this game treads the same water. It is fun and pretty and even innovative in its own gameplay kinda way. If you want to experience next-gan gameing and what the Xbox 360 can offer graphically this game must be checked out. Now for the critique. So the story is a little weak at times, it is short (which is not necessarily a bad thing), and the ending is very sudden and anti-climatic, this game still rocks. The only thing that prevents this game from getting one of the higher scores in the xbox 360's library is the final boss battle. It reminded me a little to much of Nintendo's Megaman. The boss battle was just that, a boss battle. I was hoping for something more in line with Call of Duty 2; lots of enemies and a smart and tactical general that did more yelling than fighting. Something a little more realistic in terms of waging a war against a foe that is as big and present as the humans themselves.
I look forward to the sequel and now that I've finished the game I am looking forward to hours of on-line multiplayer fun. Join the rest of us and have fun with it. See ya on-line.
