Gameplay [10] Pros: - Superb level and boss design. - Perfect blend of stealth and action. - The best pacing of any game, ever. A masterpiece. Cons: - RPG elements are nice, but not fully implemented. Graphics [9] Pros: - Revolutionary use of normal mapping. - Incredible effects. - Lifelike animation. Cons: - Blurriness around the edges suggests the X-Box can't quite handle the sheer beauty of this game. Sound [10] Pros: - Top notch voicework by hollywood actors. Vin Diesel is flawless here. - Hollywood quality soundtrack. - Incredibly believable sound effects. Cons: - Some of the lines are slightly cheesy. Value [8] Pros: - Worth playing over again, just because it's made so damn well. - The story keeps you playing to the very end -- which is rare in FPS games. Cons: - Not sure if MP would have fit well here, but it sure would have been worth a shot. - Campaign is a little short. Tilt [10] Pros: - An incredibly polished and fun game takes the best elements of action gaming and puts them all together. - Character development in an FPS ?! Cons: - They didn't even attempt MP.
