    The game combines stealth elements with brute force. Hell, Trigger Man even has a Knife Cam that lets you steer your blade through the air after throwing it.

    An uninspired and underdeveloped execution of a boilerplate game design. There are some frustrating portions, and the whole game feels rather drab, though for what it's worth, it's not broken.

    If someone, after reading this entire review still has an inkling of desire to purchase this title I suggest taking your head placing it on the frame of a door and having your pal slam the door repeatedly until any thought of Trigger Man has escaped. Simply put, this game is truly a new low for the gaming community.

    The enemy A.I. goons perform as if they're all deaf, running directly into your line of fire (or the walls), and the character animation is on par with the old "Mr. Bill" claymation shorts. [Jan 2005, p.93]

    Trigger Man is unrespectable. It's shoddy, mindless, inane, boring, drab, frustrating, limited, poor, ugly, difficult, stiff, slow, unbalanced, and without a shred of worth when compared to just about anything that has ever existed ("Bad Boys" included).

    Absolute disaster of a game. Horrible controls, gunplay, story, I can't find a redeeming quality.

    This is a hardcore game and will not be fun for most people. Basically if you miss headshots you will be repeatedly starting over and over andThis is a hardcore game and will not be fun for most people. Basically if you miss headshots you will be repeatedly starting over and over and over. The save system on this game is virtually non existent and there are tons of areas that do not have objective markers. I think it's unfair to say the game deserves the low scores it got cuz it is actually good. The problem is very few gamers will be willing to persevere what was created.… Full Review »

    Oh my lord....can you say awful. Think Hitman meets organized crime. Think taking out your enemies because the Don "asked" you to. Now think Oh my lord....can you say awful. Think Hitman meets organized crime. Think taking out your enemies because the Don "asked" you to. Now think graphics that are not entirely bad, gameplay that can be compared to an old nintendo game, and sound that was underdeveloped and you have Trigger Man. Truly a work of pure disgust. If this we released on Super Nintendo it may have been alright...but in todays world it is truly below disgusting.… Full Review »
