Hopefully the multiplayer action is better than single player.

I tried to like this game, but it just plain sucks. I don't know where it gets these high ratings from. This has got to be one of the most linear storylines I have played since the Gameboy 2D days of Pitfall. Wait for the vine to swing, jump and catch it. Ugh, argh, ech... I really dislike this game's anal linear gameplay. It's almost like you're being pushed down corridors. Yech. Add to that these crazy obstacles and rules. Man if you like getting bored hiding in the shadows and shooting out lights, this game is for you. The gameplay is sooo slow and the lack of checkpoints or autosaves except at the beginning and end of a level is very frustrating. Thankfully you can save manually, but you can get really screwed if you forget. I found the learning curve to be steep. It was hard to know what to do and just what the heck was going on half the time. It's mind-numbing insanity, being so linear. Jump three steps with your right foot, pat your tummy three times counter-clockwise then turn at three oblique angles and if you screw any one of those up, you get to start over. Dah! So back to hiding in shadows, shooting out lights, and occassionally getting some shooting in. Heaven forbid you shoot a civilan, game over. Kill the wrong guy, game over. Knock a technician out because you've dragged him all over tarnation trying to find his 'interaction point', game over. Maybe the multiplayer is where all the fun is. It's sure not in single player. As far as graphics, maybe good, but certainly nothing great.
