    I actually really liked this game - and I'm usually so hard to please! It's a hugely original title in a sea of turd brown derivative shooters. Sure, it tries to cram a lot it, but that beats boring no brain run and gun games like Gears of War. The levels are brilliantly designed and beautifully made. The controls are intuative and you can trust them. The setting is interestingI actually really liked this game - and I'm usually so hard to please! It's a hugely original title in a sea of turd brown derivative shooters. Sure, it tries to cram a lot it, but that beats boring no brain run and gun games like Gears of War. The levels are brilliantly designed and beautifully made. The controls are intuative and you can trust them. The setting is interesting and in the spirit of Bioshock. The co-op is hellafun! I wonder whether the games press gave it such a bad run because Codemasters aren't very good at shmoozing journos. Ignore the haters - give it a go, you might be surprised.… Expand

    It may feel a bit out of place on current hardware, but viewing it as something of a "lost classic" from the last generation affords it a more appropriate context to be judged in, and a more comfortable one to be enjoyed with.

    Amateurish mix of Tomb Raider and Unreal Tournament 2004 that should have stayed as a fan-made mod.

    It's ill-thought from the very start, which is demonstrated by the contradictions and flaws evident throughout the entire game.
