Official Xbox MagazineThe seriously limited engine and weird flow between levels make what could have been a great game, just an average one. Too bad. [Feb 2003, p.73]
-
The Fun Factor suffers because of repetitive gameplay and unbalanced weapons and power-ups.
-
Play MagazineBetter than "Spiderman," but it still could have been better." [Jan 2003, p.58]
-
Game InformerThis title's biggest problem is its lack of ambition. [Feb 2003, p.105]
-
GMR MagazineEverybody runs. In the case of the lackluster 3D-adventure-cum-beat-em-up Minority Report, rest assured, they're not running to the videogame store. [Feb 2003, p.71]
-
A poorly translated movie-to-game title that offers very little in challenging levels and what little fun there is here is not nearly enough.
-
What can really bring a third person action game down quicker than a roundhouse to the back of the head is a bad camera that makes it difficult or impossible to keep track of your placement within the game, and MR has one of the worst cameras Ive seen in a while.
-
We forsee you buying this game, enjoying it at first, getting frustrated at certain parts, then putting it on your shelf after youre done and rarely playing it again.
-
A weak story and overall mediocre level design.
-
Xbox Nation MagazineJoins the ranks of rushed movie-to-game conversions, with drab visuals, repetitive gameplay, and a lack of style. [Feb/Mar 2003, p.85]
-
There simply isn't enough in terms of innovation, subtlety or charm in this game for it to be considered worthy of spending £40 on.
-
So the game doesn't have any real characters at all, the graphics are nothing special, and the story actually gets in the way of the gameplay... Now if someone would just make a game where these wonderful play mechanics made some sort of logical sense, we'd be cooking with gas.
-
Cheat Code CentralAn extremely unbalanced game... forgettable.
-
Entertainment WeeklyDisastrously shallow... The minority here is the few fans who will actually finish the game. [10 Jan 2003, p.77]
-
The combat system is frustrating and delivers very little fun after a couple of hours.
-
Uneven presentation and its incongruence with the spirit of the movie make it just another bad licensed-property video game.
-
Remedial action with faint glimmers of fun, wiped out by tedious and insipid gameplay.
-
There really isn't much here beyond a half-decent fighting engine and the entertaining rag-doll physics.
