Wow. Just wow. This game did not meet the hype. Not at all. This game was purely a run and gun first person shooter that grows old so fast, it's just amazing. As good as the first game was, this does not match up. Let's start with the graphics. They're good, but not Xbox 360 good. Maybe Xbox, but not Xbox 360. The character models are unimaginative and plain stupid. The fire effects suck, and so does the voice acting. This is probably some of the worst voice acting on the Xbox 360. The characters all have corny and forced dialogue that doesn't match the situations or feel of the game at all. Scientists tend to have the same weezy slightly high pitched panzy voice as all their friends, and the enemies all have deeper voices and say the same things over and over again. Like when someone says "Give me covering fire" three times in a row, even when all his buddies are dead, you know you're in trouble. The reticule system is cool, but the weapons are just the cookie cutter assault rifles, SMGs, a shotgun, a sniper rifle, and a rocket launcher. Some of their abilities are cool, but the gameplay is too broken to make good use of them. The weapons sound awful too. Instead of bangs and cracks, there are roars, squeaks, and the standard unoriginal 90s action movie style full auto staccato. And at about five hours to beat, this game isn't even worth the effort. Especially when your hard and easy difficulties are equally easy. The unoriginal Halo 2 ripoff multiplayer doesn't help either. Overall, don't waste your time.
