The good bits are like needles lost in the giant haystack of the ones that aren't so good.
-
Play MagazineThere's a lack of polish on display here, AI and collision problems, and the platforming is ugly. [Aug 2002, p.70]
-
It may carry a $20 price tag, but even at half that price, the technically flawed gameplay and dated production values add up to a gaming experience that's hardly justifiable.
-
The fighting system found within Shifters is guaranteed to make just about anyone cringe. Calling it simple is a horrid understatement.
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyC'mon, we're talking about a hack-and-slasher with stationary pinatas for targets here! [August 2002, p.126]
-
The game really doesn't offer anything interesting aside from the whole shape-shifting thing, which is does poorly. With empty battles and bland side-quests, the point of it all is lost.
-
The AI in Shifters is absolutely laughable. Enemies get caught up on walls, chairs, corners - standing to the side of a door and repeatedly hacking an enemy in the head kills the heroic atmosphere deader than Cher's career.
-
Official U.S. Playstation MagazineThe whole thing just feels like one big accident. [July 2002, p.101]
-
Delving more than an hour or two into the game becomes painful.
