    Strictly on its own merits, this version is a good but unimpressive action adventure that still smacks of being a watered-down port of a technically superior game.

    Just an average stealth game on the PS2. It suffers from frame rate problems and just doesn't offer as much as we all would have hoped.

But it doesn't hold up to the legendary Xbox version. The levels have been reduced in size and the dark graphics are not very impressive. Also, this inferior port does not include the new multiplayer maps or modes. In addition, co-op missions can only be played on split-screen. Despite all the trimmings, it's still entertaining.
