    It has been a while since I've had so much pure joy while playing a game.

    You will forget all about the sub-par graphics and sound. You just won't care, because you're having too much fun exploring and killing and moving.
  3. It was a nice breath of fresh air to have these telepathic abilities that worked so well with the game.
  4. It's definitely not for children and it's not intended for those with a low threshold for frustration, but come on. Who doesn't love making people's heads explode?
  5. While not ground breaking in the graphics department the addition of psychic powers to your arsenal not only provides for some excellent new forms of combat it also provides for a great source of replay value.
  6. The only major complaint to be made about Psi Ops is its use of a checkpoint save system. While not always the case, this system has a way of making a bad situation worse by leaving a player with nothing save for a death wish just because they happened upon the checkpoint ill prepared.

    There is so much fun to be had from torturing the enemy that at times you have to worry about your own mental state. Yet, for all the satisfaction on offer for the majority of the experience, it ultimately ends on a disappointing low.

    I just finished this game and can't wait for number 2. I had so much fun picking up guards and putting them in the furnace and dropping I just finished this game and can't wait for number 2. I had so much fun picking up guards and putting them in the furnace and dropping them on the floating mines I started playing in arcade mode once I finished. Midway had a hit with The Suffering, which I thought was one of the best I've played, but Psi Ops ROCKS!! Expand

    A big surprise hit. Amazing physics, awesome sense of power. Very solid experience. Only let down is the surround sound, which is poorly implemented.

    This game is one of the best original games I've seen all year. The psychic powers are really cool and useful too.

    Un TPS bricolé vite fait par une bande de stagiaires et de postulants refoulés aux écoles d'informatique et de design de "jeu vidéo"... enUn TPS bricolé vite fait par une bande de stagiaires et de postulants refoulés aux écoles d'informatique et de design de "jeu vidéo"... en effet, côté jeu, c'est un désatre et côté "vidéo" ça reste au mieux tout juste médiocre, cet ersatz de jeu étant techniquement assez limité...

    La maniabilité est très moyenne et fait de ce TPS un exemple à ne pas suivre tandis que les possibilités d'infiltration sont réduites à peau de chagrin, la faute à une IA qui voit tout et vous cartonne illico presto ! le bourrinage n'est pas forcément plus amusant, y compris avec les pseudo-pouvoirs de pacotille sortis de la foire à farfouuille...!

    Les ennemis réapparaissent souvent juste derrière vous et la caméra fait trop de la merde dans les espaces un peu confinés. Psi-daube est donc une daube attendue et confirmée, dont le scénario comploteur à deux balles ne raflera pas l'Oscar mais plutôt le Régis ou l'invité à dîner du mercredi soir.
