    I have owned this game since 2008 and recently decided to play it through again, initially the control scheme felt alien to me after other shooters like far cry 3 and call of duty but after about 10 minutes it all made sense. I had forgotten how good it is to stop time and fire a shotgun at an enemy's head then go behind him and watch his head get blown off from another angle or steal anI have owned this game since 2008 and recently decided to play it through again, initially the control scheme felt alien to me after other shooters like far cry 3 and call of duty but after about 10 minutes it all made sense. I had forgotten how good it is to stop time and fire a shotgun at an enemy's head then go behind him and watch his head get blown off from another angle or steal an enemy's weapon and stick a grenade to his back then watch his reaction before blowing up and killing his friends... Fun fun fun. If you have the time and a spare ten bucks go get this game from the bargain table and enjoy. 8 for the fun factor plus a 2 for value for money.… Expand

    A very well crafted FPS with a fine twist in gameplay thanks to the time shifting mechanic. Though the art design is a bit too colourless and uninspired for my taste, I really hope for a sequel to this game because time shifting is quite an interesting concept that needs to be expanded.

    I thought this game was excellent and was rather puzzled by the reviews and ratings it received. I found it to be a solid shooter from start to finish and can only hope that the developers won't look too hard at the disappointing ratings because I will be first in line to buy the next one.

    A great game with great graphics and an ok gameplay,time shifting is also an innovative thing. Though the game would be better with better AI with enemies and more realistic killing like headshot:dead enemy,but it takes like 3-4 bullets to headshot some.

    TimeShift owns Battlefield and CoD in its own way. Did you know Sabre Interactive was talking about a second game? Shame they wasted their resources on Battle: Los Angelos. For really though TimeShift is unique game unlike these modern shooters, if there was a TS2 it WOULD be alot better then bf/cod.

The only issues I saw with the game was some frame rate drops and sound glitching other then that it still owns!!! TiMEshiFT >ALL!… Expand

    The epitome of mediocrity; it brings a few nice features with it, but ultimately adds nothing to the very crowded first-person shooter segment. Its A.I. is absurdly dumb, but requires more than a fair share of bullets to kill.

    A great deal of work was done to bring the look and feel of TimeShift up to date, though an equal amount of time should have been spent on the design and presentation.

    It doesn’t make TimeShift a bad game, it edges slightly above average thanks to the time powers.
