This game is perfectly fine as a solo game. Not every FPS in the world needs to be Co-Op.
-
A solid bug-free game that is fun to play and gorgeous to look at. It could have been so much more, but what we are ultimately left with is still a total blast.
-
The storyline may be a reworking of a stock plot, but somehow feels fresh against this background.

Game InformerIt doesn't rely on technical gimmicks. Instead, it delivers cathartic action and an absorbing story. [July 2003, p.114]

Between all the ship battles, alien spiders in dark caverns, and action-movie challenges, Mace Griffin delivers a good-looking and constantly engaging experience that is equal parts cinema, all-out combat, and skulk-and-kill infiltration.
-
Official Xbox MagazineA massive, fun, diverse, challening single-player shooter that requires you to use a bit of your brain as well as your brawn, and will keep you coming back for more. [Aug 2003, p.82]
-
A very satisfying single-player FPS, coated with a fat-free topping of space combat. The lack of secrets and multiplayer modes also means an utter lack of replay value, but I felt nothing but satisfaction at the rousing conclusion.
-
One thing that Mace Griffin has going for it is its graphics. The real-time lighting on weapons and animations are just awesome.
