    It's a classic case where many problems outweigh few pluses and a stylized, cool by definition premise gets utterly destroyed by an incredibly short, substance-free kind of gameplay that ranges from frustrating to idiotic.
  2. A little more challenge, depth, and length with the trimming of the lame on-rails levels would have made this one a near classic. As it is, though, it's an above-average shooter with just enough variety and charm to make the familiar trip worth your time.

    Has its moments, but too often feels like a conventional, uninspired shooter.
  4. The PC version's straightforward nature and bungled multiplayer options make the game a passable experience at best when compared with other first-person shooters for the PC.

    Nightfire has some of the worst AI I've ever seen in a big-budget game release. [Feb 2003, p.61]
  6. What can I tell you about the AI? It's UNBELIEVABLY scripted. It's so scripted it's not even funny.

    The port for the pc sucks, but the game is still reasonable. medium story, simple gameplay and weak multiplayer.
